parallel effect throwing type error on play()

[pulse00]

Hi,

i'm trying to write an image component that switches and old image with a newly loaded image using a move effect.

Not such a big task, but i'm having some problems understanding the Parallel effect.

When the new image is loaded, 2 move effects with each one having it's own target should start:

<mx:Parallel id="switcher" effectEnd="on_switch_end(event)" duration="300">
<mx:children>
<mx:Move xFrom="-100" xTo="0" target="new_image"/>
<mx:Move xFrom="0" xTo="100" target="old_image"/>
</mx:children>
</mx:Parallel>

<mx:Image id="new_image"
source="{model.image}" completeEffect="switcher"
width="100" height="100"
x="0" y="0">
</mx:Image>

<mx:Image id="old_image"
width="100" height="100"
x="0" y="0">
</mx:Image>


When the completeEffect of new_image is triggered, an error is thrown:

TypeError: Error #1006: value is not a function.
at mx.effects::EffectInstance/play()[E:\dev\3.0.x\frameworks\projects\framework\src\mx\ effects\EffectInstance.as:584]

by the target.dispatchEvent() line in the EffectInstance class:

public function play():void
{
playCount++;

dispatchEvent(new EffectEvent(EffectEvent.EFFECT_START, false, false, this));

if (target)
{
target.dispatchEvent(new EffectEvent(EffectEvent.EFFECT_START, false, false, this));
}
}


When i take out the parallel effect and simply trigger the 2 move effects manually, it works.

What i'm wondering, is it supposed to work having different effect targets in a parallel effect ?

completeEffect="switcher()"
