"_" in front denotes a movie clip property, or a global property.


As far as I know, a bunch of letters without the "_" in front is simply

considered to be a variable, and you may use it however you wish.


In other words, for example, "_xscale" is reserved for a specific usage within

Flash. On the other hand, you may have a variable called "xscale", and it only

has the meaning and value that you assign to it.
