RE: FLASH: statement correctness

[Paul Willoughby]

*snip*

Is this statement correct ?


"

                                            

 In order to control and change the         

 properties of an Instance in Flash with    

 ActionScript, the Instance must have       

 ?Movie Clip? as the Behavior and must be   

 assigned an Instance name.                 

                                            


"


does this mean you cant control the properties of say, a button instance or

a graphic instance ?

*snip*


Yeah, it's true, but you can still set properties of buttons and graphics if

they are embedded in a movie clip (and this doesn't have a major impact on

file size). But then bear in mind you'll have to set all your button actions

within that MC, so you're going to have to know about tell targets.
