Hi all,

Flash 8 Pro:

Im trying to find a way to duplicate one movie clip into a new movieclip so
that it can take advantage of the new target MC's rotation, location  etc.
It looks like duplicateMovieClip is what i want, but as far as i can tell it
seems to only duplicate an MC within the same parent MC - is this really the
case or am i missing something ??

ie i want it to operate like:  mcToDupe.duplicateMovieClip
(newParentMc,"newname",newParentMc.getNextHighestDepth())

The next alternative i looked at was to just removeMovieClip from the source
MC and then attachMovie (nice func naming consistency there) into the
destination MC, but looking through the MovieClip properties and functions i
cant see a way to determine the ID of the mc so that i can recreate it via
attachMovie in the dest mc - is there a way to obtain this ??

Any other ways to achieve this ??

Regards,
