trying to trace the name of something

[imagesinmotion]

Hello

I have an empty movieclip that's on the stage. I'm then placing a movieclip inside it, like so:

PHP Code:

function addTinySection() {
    var tiny:MovieClip = new tinySection();
    completeLoader.addChild(tiny);
    tiny.name="tiny"+1;
    trace(completeLoader.getChildAt(0).getChildAt(2).name);
}
addTinySection();


I can trace the child name of the movieclip "completeLoader", but I can't trace any of the children names of "tiny".

I've attached the example for you to see.

Cheers

PHP Code:

trace(completeLoader);
trace(completeLoader.getChildByName('tiny1'));

Thanks for the reply but it's not what I'm looking for. I need to get to the children of "tiny"

I can trace the name of tiny:
trace(completeLoader.getChildAt(0).name);

That's already a reference to the object - you probably just need to cast it:

PHP Code:

trace(DisplayObjectContainer(completeLoader.getChildAt(0)).getChildAt(0).name);

Great, thanks neznein9!
