Make sure your holder Movie Clip has the instance name "holder" in the
Properties panel... you're arrow_mc too... your code works for me...

Subject: [Flashcoders] scope question
Hey all,
Simple question that I just don't get. I have a simple movie clip of an
arrow and my code works fine when it's on stage. For some reason when i
put
the movie clip in a holder clip my code doesn't work as it should. I know
it's a scope thing just don't know how to fix it. Delagate maybe?
any help would sweet thanks
//arrow_mc.onMouseMove = lookMouse;
holder.arrow_mc.onMouseMove = lookMouse;
//function that rotates any object that calls it toward the mouse position
function lookMouse(){
updateAfterEvent();
var xdiff:Number = _root._xmouse-this._x;
var ydiff:Number = _root._ymouse-this._y;
var angle:Number = Math.atan2(ydiff, xdiff);
//Convert to degrees
angle = angle*180/Math.PI;
trace(angle);
this._rotation = angle;
};
