Will getChildByName work with a nested target name (e.g. "_level0.mc1.mc2.mc3")?
No, it gets the child with the particular name in the display object
container. You'll want to split the string apart:
// Not tested - but you get the basic idea
var parts:Array = name.split( '.' );
var reference:DisplayObject = root;
for ( var i:int = 0; i < parts.length; i++ ) {
reference = reference.getChildByName( parts[ i ] );
}
// use reference here
The above loop is equivalent to:
reference = root.getChildByName( "mc1" ).getChildByName( "mc2"
).getChildByName( "mc3" );
-d
