David, Looks like you're trying to change the y-value of your library object (class) rather than the instance on your stage.
Where you now have: this.backgroundvalue._y+=20; I think you want: this.backgroundvalue_mc._y+=20; HTH -Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Brunswick Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2007 12:36 PM To: 'Flashcoders mailing list' Subject: [Flashcoders] scrolling dynamic movie clip Hello List, I am creating an empty movie clip container dynamically at runtime. Then when the user selects a specific button a movie clip is loaded into that container from the library. My issue is getting the loaded movie clip to scroll. Here is a sample of the code stop(); theClip.createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc", 1); this.start_btn.onRelease = function() { attachMovie("backgroundvalue","backgroundvalue_mc", 1); backgroundvalue _mc._y = .9; backgroundvalue _mc._x = 0; } Then for the movie clip backgroundvalue scroll buttons I have this Up btn on(press, release, keyPress "<Up>") { this.backgroundvalue._y+=20; } Down btn on(press, release, keyPress "<Down>") { this.backgroundvalue._y -=20; } This logic works with a movie clip in a frame on the main timeline. I need to work with a dynamically loaded MC. Any suggestions?
