That's not a bad way of updating AS1. Just be aware that it's still AS1. If
you're going to need to maintain it, I'd go to AS 2. I'd subclass
MovieClip--it's not hard at all. You just put your functions (methods) in a
.as file, lose the MovieClip.prototype part, and use something like this
snippet from a movie I'm working on:
var ageSlider:AgeSliderClass = myRoot.attachMovie("SliderBead_and_Shadow",
"AgeSliderClass", myRoot.getNextHighestDepth());
It's probably better to use DepthManager, especially if you're going to have
components, to get the depth. Regardless, you'll have much more maintainable
code with AS2 (or AS 3, if FP 9 is your target). They're much more
OOP-oriented.
Cordially,
Kerry Thompson
