Re: FLASH: How do I get a variable from another mc

[Cheri Harder]

Didn't see yours get answered either, Tom.  Sam answer, but in case you

missed the last one


set variable "/parent/child:title" = 25


Where "parent" is the instance name of a MC on the main timeline, "child" is

the instance name of a MC within "Parent" and "title" is a variable within

"child"


Because that first "/" starts the path at the main timeline, you can set &

refer to the "title" variable this way from anywhere in the movie.


IF /parent/child:title = 25

  Play

End If


See http://www.flashbible.com/members/TellTarget/ for a couple of good

visual examples of relative paths to variables and mc's.
