- i want to access elements in A.fla, from the actionscript codes inside B.fla to modify those movie clips and buttons based on actions going on in B.swf
for instance, lets say there is a button X in A.fla, and there is a button Y in B.fla, B.swf is loaded into A.fla, and I want the button Y to erase button X when clicked.
general question: accessing elements in a stage, through a SWF file loaded into that stage.

how I can access the coordinates of an mc, but its coordinates with respect to the stage.
What I am doing is using a dragging function, but while the mouse is moving I am also trying to trace the position of the mc itself with respect to its position on the stage, but it seems to keep giving me very small numbers, almost like numbers with respect to its original position. I am not sure yet though why this is. Here is my code:
[Code]....
I have also tried to get rid of the this.x = mouseX and the same for y, but then it returns the values as undefined when i trace this.x and this.y
I'm learning a lot by reading the questions and answers that are asked in the Forum. Now it is my turn to ask a question that is probably a rookie, but I have spend 3 days breaking my head to try to find a solution and have not found it yet.
I am trying that the program responds to each click of the player in a box that is white and turns red, with a random click in another box. Something similar to Tic Tac Toe.
My problem is that I can't make te program to access the boxes in the array by programming. When I try the program to access the box with p.ex.: "this.newBox.boxplus30.gotoAndStop (2);" I always get the error "object null or undefined". I have tried everything you can imagine to formulate that line of code, but without success.[code]...
I want Access to value of a variable from inside of Function like this simple example

I am learning how to create menu systems for a game and have a few different "screens" (movieclips with buttons and such).
I am getting Undefined Property errors when I try to access a button from the class file of a screen.
Example: I have a MainMenu screen. This has its own class MainMenu.as.
Inside the library MainMenu movieclip, I have a button, instance named start_button.
But inside the MainMenu.as file, I try to do start_button.addEventListener(...) and it says undefined property. I tried doing getChildByName("start_button"), that won't work either.
I create a new Ball movieclip and sets the Uid property:
var ball_mc:Ball = new Ball();
ball_mc.uID = "1232435";
addChild(ball_mc);
From outside the movieclip i can access the property value by trace(ball_mc.uID);, but what if i what to reach the value inside the movieclip itself? trace(uID); or trace(ball_mc.uID); dosent seem to work.
I'm trying to make an old fashioned 2D sidescroller game similar to the old Mario games, and i'm stuck with a lil problem: I want to add coins that can be collected by the player. I've made a coin class that unloads the coins when the player touches them:

I have an AS3 swf which loads and external AS2 swf. Inside the AS2 swf i have the following code which fetches the flashvars passed through html.
flashpar.text = "Params: " + _level0.name;
When i run the AS2 SWF independently passing the param through HTML. It works fine.But when i load the AS2 swf inside AS3 swf. It is not able to fetch the flashvars, which is strange cz if i load the AS2 SWF inside another AS2 swf it works fine. how should i fetch the flashvars inside the loaded AS2 SWF.
