perhaps...

but by my understanding, if I wanted to know the size of a specific movieClip, I'd target it directly instead of the parent... ?

useful is a matter of perspective :)

if you want to load in the content behind a mask and dont know how big the content is then its useful to be able to find out its real size, not just the visible size.

I have a .swf that's 400x300. It has a stage and mask that's 400x300, but the masked content is 800x600. When I check ._width & ._height for the movie I get 800x600, instead of 400x300 which *should* be the true (and useful) value. Is this a permanent "error"? Or does the value eventually come back as I expected?
