Please HELP! AS2 Question

[lgreenwald]

Hi there!
I’m using the following bit of AS2 on a couple of mc’s of my project so I would like to use the specific instance name in this:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x = this._x + (_root.intSlideToX – this._x ) /5;
this._y = this._y + (_root.intSlideToY – this._y ) /5;
}

It needs to call printMC, specifically.

Here’s what’s on the button:
on (release) {
_root.intSlideToX = 642.5
_root.intSlideToY = -187.3
}

printMC is NOT on the root level but the button is.

Any help would be wildly appreciated!

That isn't AS 2.0, that's AS 1.0.

The equivalent AS 2.0 would look something like

this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
.... actions
}

This would go on a frame of your timeline, not on an instance of anything.

What are you actually trying to achieve here, though? - I can't quite work it out. You want something to move when the button is clicked?
