Hi everyone,

It seems that something changed with the upadate

When i'm in a movie clip and i try to target the root (or level up) what i used before doesn't work anymore :

Before i used "parent"

this.parent.play();

And it doesn't work anymore

Do u have any clue ?

Thx a lot

Patrick

    Hi Patrick

    I had a similar problem. You might have to disable Use Advanced Layers in the Properties Panel -> Advanced Settings...

    Also, if you work with HTML5/Canvas files and you want to use Advanced Layers (for Camera, Layer Parenting, Layer Depth and Layer Effects) you could try

    exportRoot.play();

    (if the parent is really the root)

    but please don't count on that
