What is the best to import the a scrolling text into my movie?
i tried the scroling tutorial, it works out fine but when i try to insert / import it, i lose my scrolling text.
could somebody tell me how to do it? coudnt find it in the forum.
so that i can put it anywhere on my screen?

thanks.

i want to insert a scrolling text beside some pic.
i want to import it in a movie, witch is importied on level 2 in my main movie.
but when i import it the buttons are ther but the text has disapeard, and it is on the left upperside of the movie.
so how do i insert it correctly and on the right place?

load your movie into a target and check the load path for your text

eg

loadMovie("myText.swf","_root.targMC");

then in your external file have

loadVariables("myTextFile.txt","_root.targMC.textBoxVar");

or something like that anyway

there were many basic problems with these files

eg your target clip didnt have an instance name

anyway its working - check out the attached file and the loadmovie tutorial here
