I'm glad that works. That may be a AS3 scoping issue. Since you are extend-ing the base class (call it BaseClass), you can see all protected functions and methods, as well as public ones. I am not sure how SWC's are set up by default, but it sounds like the methods and properties are protected, not public, which makes sense to some degree.
As an alternate, you can create a class (call it ExtendedClass) that extends the base class , and create new public properties in ExtendedClass for any SWC items that you want to access. You also may be able to use the getter/setter concept in ExtendedClass to access the protected BaseClass items; they would need new names, but it would look like a property with assignment and such, not like a method call. Can you use the getChild() function instead? You wouldn't have much code-prompting in FD (unless you cast it correctly), but still would be able to use the movieclips.
