FlashApe

Ran into a wierd flash issue today. apparently, you can’t attach a movie clip symbol from the library to a loaded movie. So, say you have a main swf, named “main.swf”, and a movie you are going to load into that called “second.swf”, into a container clip on stage named “container_mc”. This won’t work:

bc[as]. this.container_mc.loadMovie(”second.swf”);
var newClip = this.container_mc.attachMovie(”mainLibraryClip”, “mainLibrariyClip_mc”, 1);

it WILL work, however, if the symbols you want to attach are in the loaded swf’s library. I guess you could use shared libraries if there were symbols that you intended to use from the main.swf across multiple loaded swf’s (although i havent tried that yet).
