AS3's substitution of attachMovie for the movieclip constructor is,
while logical on the surface, somewhat baffling to me in practise. In
AS2, extending MovieClip required you to declare variables to gain
references to clips already instanced in the library movieclip. For
instance, extending a movieclip containing a textfield with instance
name "nameField" would require var nameField:TextField to gain
control of that field in the class. What this gives you on script
level is an overview of relevant movieclip members, as well as code
completion. In AS3, declaring variables to refer to hand placed
movieclip members throws an error:
1151: A conflict exists with definition x in namespace internal.
When using classes, go to your publish settings, actionscript, and
turn off "automatically declare stage instances" and it should behave
as it did before -- you'll need to declare stage instances yourself. I
agree that's odd, I use it off, but I guess they decided to add it on
by default is so beginners wouldn't have trouble dealing with elements
when coding 'on the timeline'.
