Action script in A movieclap within a movieclip

Hi

I have this actionscript that i want to ad to a movieclip called "bgcolor" in a movieclip called "main".

on (release) {
myColor=new Color(_root.main.bgcolor);
myColor.setRGB(0x000000);
}

My question is: Does it work to write _root.main.bgcolor?

Thanks guys

its like this

on (release)
{
colorchange = new Color("/ball");
colorchange.setRGB(0x55FF);
}

that changes a movie clip from green to blue if you started with a green mc.
ill post a fun file if u want me to.

That looks fine. or _parent.main.bgcolor will refer to a clip called bgcolor in main in the root or parent timeline.

Heres the source file it works rember that flash is scase sensitive.

all ur code was right but that works in flash 8 you need to use no big caps in KM only if you need to because it wont work any other way just download the source file =).
