I'm trying to load a flash 9 SWF into Flex with some luck. I can
get it in there with SWFLoader but now how can I use something from
the Flash Library
or can I?
I get this error when I run the code below "ReferenceError: Error
#1065: Variable Radar is not defined." But when I "Dismiss All"
then click the button in the app it will move the radar movieClip
that sits on the Flash Stage. I'm confused as to what this error is.
For the library item - If it was being done in Flash, I'd use
attachMovie () like:
var cPoint:MovieClip = circle.attachMovie(pointer, 'point' +
counter, 0 + counter, {_x:centerX + x, _y:centerY + y, date:cDate});
which would place the item on the stage as many times as I need it
depending on the number of nodes from my XML. Is there a way to do
this in Flex using my loaded SWF?
