hi,
You can call as _root.TitleBackground.someClip make sure TitleBackground
is the MovieClip

Let me ask the question another way: how do I access movieClips and/or
TextFields within my custom TitleBackground _in_general_, regardless
of what I call them. Suppose there's a movieClip called "someClip"
inside my TitleBackground and I want to changes it's _visible prop.
How do I get a handle to this clip? Neither
"window.TitleBackground.someClip" nor
"window.skinTitleBackground.someClip" seem to be "public". It's as if
I need to specify that they are public in an interface somewhere, but
I have no idea how?

Woops.. that's incorrect..
You need to have a textfield named "title_mc" ;-)
But again, you should probably leave it up to the Window to create
the title for you.

The Window component class takes care of creating a title for you.
You don't need to do anything, just set the .title property on the
Window instance.
If for some reason you want to put your own title textfield in the
header, you'll need to have a movieclip (instance name 'title_mc')
that contains a textfield (instance name 'text') inside your custom
TitleBackground.
The textfield might get affected by the stretching of the
TitleBackground though, so not sure how well this will work out.

Subject: [Flashcoders] how to access custom TitleBackground
(skinTitleBackground) of Window
I've created a TitleBackground movieClip by following the
instructions in the MX04 online help "To set the title of an Window
component to a custom movie clip symbol" (below). Now I'd like to
make a call to a function inside of that clip or access properties
within that clip directly. The window has a property
skinTitleBackground the value of which is an object of type
"TitleBackground", but TitleBackground doesn't have any public
properties. Inside my TitleBackground movieClip there is a
TextField called "titleText" that I would like to be able to set
the text of. So far the only way I've been able to change it is by
having a loop within the movieClip check on the value of an
external variable. There should be another way, right?
