AS3 or HTML5?

hi Joåo, as3,

First you need a Movie Clip in the Library set to export for ActionScript.

Then, for example, put this code in the first frame of the main timeline:

var test:Test = new Test();
test.x = stage.stageWidth * 0.5;
test.y = stage.stageHeight * 0.5;
addChild(test); // you could also write something like 'container.addChild(test);' to add the Test instance to a Movie Clip instance called 'container'

I hope this helps.

JC
