I knew if I asked I would find the answer 10 minutes later.....


_root[variable]._visible=false;

for example makes invisible the movie clip/button with the name set in 'variable' in the main movie...oh so simple when one knows how...

Yeah Set Properties is depreciated Actionscript, the dot syntax has been aroudn since like flash 5 or so and is much easier to use.

Indeed! Well I often start looking for actionscript through macromedia support sites and theres soooooo much....one of those thick books that never gets fully read...

thanks for the reply
