Can I change the center point of an MC

I have a got an MC embedded in another MC and I want to change/set the center point of the embedded MC from within the _root . Is this possible..???

Cheers - GF

There's no facility in actionscript for doing this automatically, but you can simulate it.

Briefly, you place your movie clip (mc1) inside another movie clip (mc2). When you want to change the centre point of mc1, just move mc2 to the new position, and move mc1 by the opposite amount.

Here's a file that demonstrates the idea.

Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for your help, i can see roughly how to port it across but cant do it till tommorow my boss is back in the office :(
