I am trying to get an image object from one sprite container and adding it to another sprite container. But when I use GetChildAt for this, it will remove the object from the parent sprite and place it inside the other.
Code: sprContainer1.addChildAt(sprContainer2.getChildAt( 1),0);
Problem is when I run this code sprContainer2.numChildren is getting reduced by 1, which seems that this code removes a child from sprcontainer2.
I've got a question that might make me look like a fool. But the question is:Is it possible to somehow change a dynamic variable or call a dynamic function of an object using
Code:container.getChildAt(index).variable = 234;container.getChildAt(index).function();I mean, if I write a class with some functions and variables that are public. And I need many instances of that class (which extends MovieClip, and is tied to a object in the library) inside the container object. and I want to run some functions and set some variables of the first object in the container object when the

From a position on an Array of sector Sprites on an 11 x 11 grid, I am trying to "sense" what Child occurs at nearby sector Sprites. I felt certain I could use something like this
if (sectorArray [currentSector - 11].getChildAt is MovieClip) {
//do stuff
}
but it doesn't seem to work. I changed my visibility settings to true, thinking the false visibility might be a problem, but no result.
I am not sure if I worded the question correctly, however, I have code to detail it. Firstly, I have a class Class1:

I am trying to implement an onEnterFrame method within an object that is not applied to a MovieClip. The onEnterFrame is not running, most likely because it is not a movieClip. Is there a way of making it run without attaching anything to the stage?

I'm using the mc_tween2.as tween class and the slideTo method for moving objects around on the screen.
What I'm trying to do is to have the objects rotate "x" degrees when clicked. Right now, they move, let's say, 20px across the x-axis. But I want it to move 20px while rotating 15 degress clockwise. Is that possible using this method?
I know there's a way to rotate objects using the _rotation feature, but that doesn't move it using any tweens; it just "snaps" it into place. I'm looking to rotate the object using a tween, while sliding sliding around using the slideTo method.
