Of course I agree with Jason. Another option in this case is not using the Document class (which is the best practice), but in your first frame at the top of your actionscript, something like this:
var myFoo:Foo = new Foo(); Groeten, Cor van Dooren -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: donderdag 9 september 2010 20:50 To: Flash Coders List Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] access a mc in stage from a class Not to the constructor of a document class, but you should think about what you're trying to accomplish. I would recommend if you're moving to AS3 classes, you break this project into varying classes that are instantiated from the document class. You can of course send arguments to the constructors of other classes. I wouldn't recommend mixing timeline code and external classes.

I have the following class: package { import flash.display.*; import flash.events.*; public class foo { //constructor public function foo():void { trace("hi") mc1.x+=30; <- don't work. } } how can I inform the class that I have a mc (mc1) in the stage in order to access i´'s properties and methods? tried with addChild too but had no luck. thanks, rodrigo. _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Geen virus gevonden in het binnenkomende-bericht.
