View 15 Repliestheres a function on the main timeline, I want to call it from inside of a movieclip.the first error was that it couldn't find the function and then I found a post where a guy said I should try something like MovieClip(root).fn() which made sense but then I got the "cannot convert stage to movieclip" error.

I'm using loadMovie to load in an external SWF file. I'm looking to call a function called setText() inside of this swf. I can get to the function by doing this:
ActionScript Code:
toolTip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("toolTip", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
toolTip.loadMovie("ToolTip.swf");
[code]....
but it's not working like this:
ActionScript Code:
toolTip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("toolTip", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
toolTip.loadMovie("ToolTip.swf");
toolTip.setText(aTxt);
how I can do this without an enterframe?
I have a SWF that is used to load other swf to it.
each of the loaded swf files has its own button events that try to access javascript functions. The problem is that they can't access the javascript. It never gets to call the functions.
If i run those swf on their own then it works..
what should i do do have embedded swfs to call javascript methods ?

View 2 RepliesI have to call a movieclip inside of another movieclip.
Let say a movieclip with an instance name location_mc is inside a movieclip with and instance name menu_mc.
How the scripting will be if I want to call the location movieclip.
Everything was working well until I put all my buttons inside the menu moveiclip because I need to do something else.
This is my code which I know is wrong but if just to give you an idea of what I have got:
ActionScript Code:
fitzrovia_mc.buttonMode = true;
location_mc.buttonMode = true;
apartments_mc.buttonMode = true;

I`m instancing a Character and a Player in the Main Timeline, all in frame 1.
When I use: ""player.attack(character)"" it works fine by itself.
So I added the if (defender._hp <= 0) this.win() which gives me the following error:
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method win through a reference with static type Character.
"defender" is a Character instance, "this" is a Player instance and "win()" is a Player method. I try to call the Player method inside a Character method using the Player instance adding the "." and his method name
Do I really need to define the win() function in the Character class? Is there a bypass to use a subclass method in a parent class method if it`s called from an instance of the subclass?
This is hard to explain, but basically here goes: have a "frame" movieclip that loads images. I call frame.loadImage(the URL) and everything works. So far so good.When I put "frame" inside of another clip, named "frameHolder", then call frameHolder.frame.loadImage, nothing happens.
View 9 Replieshow do you call a function that is inside another movieclip?Do global functions have to be declared on the root? I'm trying to do a very simple thing, take the grid tutorial and apply it as a mask to an image. Everything works ok, now I would like to call the function that makes the grid after the pic has loaded.
So I have on the root:
mc_picholder
mc_boxholder <---This mc contains the function that makes little boxes
I can assign the mc_boxholder as a mask to the mc_picholder and this works fine. Now say I have a function in mc_boxholder called makeboxes(), and I want to call it from the root once a pic has finished loading into mc_picholder.All the functions to make the boxes are inside the mc_boxholder. I've tried declaring makeboxes as global, and calling it from the root, doesn't work.I've tried tried writing from root: mx_boxholder.makeboxes(), doesn't work either.....
