Where do you create objects

Question

Do you always have to create objects on the stage or can you create them in the actual programming. I know you can create a movie clip instance and name it. but can you just inside the programming create a new class and then from there create the instance from the class?

Thanks for all the help i am learning this after doing some C++ so going slow but hopefully will one day be good?

also new to forum. i Don't know if im doing it wrong. I have seen people complain about new people posting stuff in the wrong places.Sorry if i am doing that

The forum is meant to be geared towards people who know Flash and are trying to solve a mobile specific thing, so there may be better forums for more general ActionScript questions.

Meanwhile, you can set things in the library to be shared for ActionScript, and give them a Class name. Then when you want one of those, you say something like:

var aWidget:Widget = new Widget();
