Hi, I wouldn't use scenes, I think it's even in adobe's best practice document. Attachmovie is used for attaching movies from the library, loadMovie is used for loading movies from an external source, which one are you trying to do? As far as tutorials go, I'd recommend doing the flash tutorials

Hi list... I'm having trouble printing a movieclip with an attachBitmap call. The movieclip goes through the PrintJob fine, but there's no bitmapData attached, only a square that's the color of the Flash movie's background color. When I debug, I can see that the bitmapData has params of

Also I've found that when trying to add a MovieClip instance to a UIComponent in Flex, the whole app just quits. Though technically there is nothing wrong with doing this, Flex components react badly to display objects that are not desensants of UIComponent. Interesting, I haven't encountered

I allways knew that scenes wheren't the best choice, but the animation lasts about 10 minutes, which would be really complicated to do in anly one scene. Yes, hans it is really loadMovie the one that i should use. I don't know where did i mix this with attachMovie. It worked, but it is not really

I'm assuming this is AS2. Like most MM components, they draw the drop-down on _root, so rotating the original clip will have no effect. List components are actually pretty simple to write, so you might want to write your own. Alternatively, you could try other components like bjc,

Hi, You may have problems forcing one timeline without a sound on to sync with another. Here is a suggested workaround for the separate scenes problem: Save multiple copies of your original animation - one copy for each scene. Open up the first animation and delete all scenes
