For anyone else using FlashDevelop only, hope this helps... I work in FlashDevelop since I only have Flash 8 and here's how I get movieclips into FD.
The makebutton.swf has a movieclip "redBox" with another animated mc inside it called "bluebutton" makebutton.swf is exported, not as swc, and then embedded. [Embed(source="makebutton.swf", symbol="redBox")] private var redbox:Class; private var redboxmc:MovieClip = new redbox(); Now FD can reference blueButton that is inside redBox. redboxmc.stop(); redboxmc.blueButton.stop(); redboxmc.blueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, blueButton_mouseOverHandler); This was part of a Papervision tutorial somewhere and works of course in Away. Using Flash 8 I can't have any code in the MCs so I don't know how it would otherwise if it had functions.
