Level problem

[Tedeee]

i have make a button inside a movie clip , once i click it it bing inside to 3 level .

Code:

Cu.pic1.Newbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK. set1)

this button effect bring my flash into pic1 level , is there any way to return to main time line level?

i dont know how to explain , hope you guys understand ,let me know if you guys dont ><"

[acolyte]

event.currentTarget.parent.parent

should do the trick

because parent of pic1 is Cu and parent of Cu is the mainTimeline

[Tedeee]

so i will type like this ? event.currentTarget.Cu.pic1

[acolyte]

No - event.currentTarget.parent.parent

RTFM

What does the set1 function do?
(post the set1 code)

[Tedeee]

function set1(event:MouseEvent):void{
if(offN == false){
if(Cn1b == true){
p1.gotoAndStop(Cu.currentFrame+Cn1)
Bg.gotoAndStop(p1.currentFrame)
p3.gotoAndStop(p1.currentFrame)
offN = true
}
}
}

i dont think is the Mouse function got problem ,because if it put the the the button at stage,it wont have a problem with my function.

i think is the button bring me it inside the other movie clip level , but once i have a click on stage it work again, so i think i was in pic level but i need to bring it back to main time line level. hope you understand and thank for reply.

If you need to call a function on the main timeline, dispatch an Event from wherever you are, and listen for that event on the main timeline.
That way, you don't have to worry too much about the hierarchical relationship between the child and the main timeline.

Events are a bit tricky to master, but well worth the effort.
Play around with it, and use trace statements to validate your code.
Keep it simple until you understand how it works.

// from a movieclip someplace on the displaylist in your application:
dispatchEvent(new Event("do something", true));

main timeline:

addEventListener("do something", eventHandler);

function eventHandler(e:Event):void
{
    trace(e.target.name);
}
