Adobe Animate HTML 5 Error when accessing internal library via external js script

Question

Recently started learning Javascript and here is the problem When trying to access the internal Adobe Animate library through an external JS script, it swears and writes an error And if I write this script inside Adobe Animate it works fine, please help

let myBlue = new lib.blueShape;

exportRoot.addChild(myBlue);

let xPosition = Math.floor(Math.random()*700);

let yPosition = Math.floor(Math.random()*700);

myBlue.x = xPosition;

myBlue.y = yPosition;

root.push(myBlue);

throws an error on - let myBlue = new lib.blueShape;

var queue = new createjs.LoadQueue(); queue.loadManifest([ "ext_file.js" ]); This is how I add the code well, I need something from the ext_file.js file to access the Adobe Animate library, and not from the timeline

i showed you how to do that

in your fla

// don't use "var"

tl = this; // main timeline reference
LIB = lib; // library reference

// load your js file(s)
var queue = new createjs.LoadQueue();
queue.loadManifest([
"ext_file.js"
]);

in your external js file

let myBlue=new LIB.blueShape();

tl.addChild(myBlue);

you have to wait until the library is initialized to access it.  and that should be new lib.blueShape();
