Re: FLASH: problems with communicating with a mc

[nadia]

hi helen


ok, first i load 5 different .swf's each on a separate layer (25 -29), (i am

loading randomly 5 out of 56) so each of these movies has a movieclip in it

called figur. 

so if i set property and call the level first i can tell each mc (figur) to

go where i want it to go... it works... let me finish some more of my mc and

then i'll upload it. i'll let you know, maybee when you see it you get the

picture of what i'm doing.
