It works, but seems fundamentally wrong, as I understood it was bad practise to add methods to an object dynamically. Should I make the class listen for clicks on the nested clip or is there another solution? There's nothing wrong with adding methods to an object dynamically. What's slightly

hello, if you'd want to do it conceptually right OOP-wise, basically you have to write a class for each nested clip (or one class for all nested clips if their functionality overlaps). -Meinte On 2/21/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is my first experience use the mailing

I'm much the same as you, and probably not the best person to ask! My OOP style is... shall we say 'idiosyncratic'? That's why I thought I'd expose my soft, white underbelly here on the forum. I would imagine that mine would be quirky. I'm not looking for the pinacle of OOP practices, not

Rob, I would *highly* recommend C# A Programmers Introduction by Deitel and Deitel. I had a similar background and it laid a framework I could understand. It explained OOP to me better than any other book I've read. The stuff you will learn from it will help you not only in Flash but any
