Path

[jubjub_]

I have got a textbox and it is really deep in a movie.

I currently trying to use the path of
_root.Scene10.scrollMe.inner.daTextBox.text = ""

The text box is in Scene10 then in scrollMe then in inner and i want to load it into a datextbox.

This has been bugging me for a couple of days.

I cant upload the file but i you want to help, i will email it 200K zipped to u.

Many thanks,

Trent.

I have debugged the movie and the text is getting loaded into memory but it not get written to screen.

I'm not familiar with the data input etc...

but check your path... I don't think you need to give the name of your scene.

simply


_root.myMC.myMc1.myMc2.myMc3

Howdy... ;)

Just out of curiosity...

_root.Scene10.scrollMe.inner.daTextBox.text

That 'Scene10' is the instance name of the movieclip, not the scene name, right??? I just want to make sure of it...

One way to check the path is to open up the debugger and write down the actual path showing in it and compare it with the code... Also type something in the text field, daTextBox, within the debugger and see if it changes the text...

I think 200kb file for this is ridiculous... Maybe you can simply do the copy and paste to create a sample for somebody to take a look at it??? ;)
