Re: [flexcoders] embed a movieclip

[Jason Y. Kwong]

I'm actually trying to do something similar.  What I've found so far should be able to help you.  You need to load the SWF via the Loader component and then use its content property:<mx:Loader id="myloader" source="
SimpleSWF.swf" complete="onComplete()"/>private function onComplete(): void{   var swf: MovieClip = MovieClip(myloader.content);   swf.gotoAndPlay(...);
}My problem is that I can't access additional methods/properties that are declared in the loaded swf.  I've seen a Flex 1.5 example where you can just go ahead and call those methods on the MovieClip instance, but that doesn't seem to work in Flex 2.  I've tried casting it to an Object to get around the compiler, but I just end up with a runtime error.
