Sorry for my ignorance but I just started Flex in the last week and I
still a little confused. This call is at the root of the application.
<mx:Canvas id="canvasBuilding_In">
<mx:ModuleLoader url="Building_In.swf" id="modBuilding_In" />
</mx:Canvas>
So what would my object chain look like to call a function of
modBuilding_ID?
Thanks
