This all looks AS3 to me.
Did I misunderstood AS2?

Hi Cor,
Thank you for reading this Cor. It is a package and it looks like below.
It is one of my first attempts so if you see any other room for improvement
it would be welcome.
____________________________________
The call to the loader looks like this:
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var m = main.addChild(mc);
mc.name = "btn_nav"
var callback:Object = new Object();
callback.fn = initGameNav;
callback.mc = m;
var l:Assetloader = new Assetloader(mc, "game_buttons_as3.swf", callback);

The Return or on complete function essentially looks like this:

{
var game_button_ar:Array = o.mc.games;
var game_ar_len:Number = game_button_ar.length;
for(var i:Number=1;i<=game_ar_len;i++)
{
var newY:Number;
var asset_name:String = game_button_ar[(i-1)][0];
var asset_game_to_load:String = game_button_ar[(i-1)][1];
var asset_class =
o.load_info.applicationDomain.getDefinition(asset_name) as Class;
var asset_mc:MovieClip = new asset_class() as MovieClip;
o.mc.addChild(asset_mc);
//trace("game to load = " + asset_game_to_load)
asset_mc.asset_game_to_load = asset_game_to_load;
asset_mc.scaleX = .50
asset_mc.scaleY = .50
if(i<=10)
{
newY = 0
asset_mc.x = ((i-1) * asset_mc.bg.width/2) +
asset_mc.bg.width/2
}
else
{
newY = 80;
asset_mc.x = ((i-11) * asset_mc.bg.width/2) +
asset_mc.bg.width/2
}
asset_mc.y = newY; .....................etc...

Hi All,
New to AS3.
I'm sure I must be missing something obvious, but I'm at a loss.
Example:
I have created a movie clip - called "myMC". I added it to an existing movie
clip called "main" (main.addChild(myMC)).
At this point myMC traces as [object MovieClip].
I load an as2 swf into myMC.
At this point myMC traces as [object MainTimeline].
I change myMC's y value to 100 and it traces as 100.
Later I want to move it again. To reference it I create a variable like
this:
var mc:DisplayObject = main.getChildByName("myMC");
Now when I trace mc's y value it is 0.
I don't know why.
Does the trace [object MainTimeline] indicate that I've used addChild
incorrectly? Should I have added myMC to "main" after it had loaded? Why
did it go from a MovieClip object to a MainTimeline object?
Does the fact that I'm loading in an as2 swf have anything to do with it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Kurt
