access the main time line function

[lalitha subramanian]

Hi all,

In as2 we can use _root to access the main timeline function from the inside some movieclip or button.

In as3 how to access the main timeline function from inside the movieclip or button.can any one please tell me.

"root" is the AS3 equivalent, but using it alone will often not wortk.  You more often need to cast it as some form of object before the compiler will recognize it.  Using "MovieClip(root)" will usually do the trick.
