timeline Var

[boomshanka]

Hiya

is it possible to increment a variable on the timeline from a Class ?

i can do it the other way round ...

Yes, it is possible, but is a bad planing also. You have to either pass your class reference to the timeline, or, if the class extends DisplayObject and you have added it to the stage, than it can get reference to the timeline through it's root property. However, the variables on the main timeline are internal to it, this means, that if you haven't used your custom document class the only way to get the value / reference to the variable would be to add timeline script which will tell your class where the variable is / what is it's value.

Boomshanka, are you familiar with the method 'addFrameScript'?
If not, this is for you.
