Apologies, I messed up my code in the original email (used "new
element" instead of the correct "new embed"). Corrected code here:
package {
import flash.display.*
public class Test extends MovieClip {
[Embed(source="embed.swf")]
public var embed:Class;
public function Test():void {
var m:MovieClip = MovieClip(addChild(new embed()));
m.stop(); // fails
m.y=100; // works
}
}
}
