Hi list... I can't figure out why the onEnterFrame attached to _root.tooltip in my displayTip function removes that MC after one frame. If I set the onEnterFrame to alter any other MC on the stage, no problem, but when I set it to alter itself, it errors. Any ideas?
Thanks, - Michael M. class toolbarFunctions extends MovieClip { private var tipID:Number; function toolbarFunctions() { } function onRollOver():Void { tipID = setInterval(this, "displayTip", 1000); } function onRollOut():Void { _root.tooltip.removeMovieClip(); clearInterval(tipID); } function displayTip():Void { clearInterval(tipID); _root.createEmptyMovieClip("tooltip", 554); _root.tooltip.createTextField("tip", 1, 0, 0, 100, 100); _root.tooltip.tip.text = "hi"; // FAILS HERE: _root.tooltip.onEnterFrame = function():Void { _root.tooltip._x = _root._xmouse; _root.tooltip._y = _root._ymouse; }; } } _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
