Hi Tom,
What is the relative execution speed of these functions ie about the
same as in flash or about the same as director?
Thanks
Dave

creator method, or the Math, Camera and Microphone objects (those
three are implicitly global and present, no need to create them) can
be created and referenced via Lingo. For other objects that are
created inside a SWF itself you can grab references using the modified
getVariable() command:

representation, thus you can make Lingo references to objects spawned
within your SWF. Sweeeeet.
