Placing a clip on stage at runtime

#1 08-26-2008, 10:21 PM

Hi,

I have a movie clip in library i named bleu, with linkage identifier bleu. I
want to place it on stage at runtime using AS 2.0, here is the code i type:

var depth:Number = 1000;
_root.attachMovie("bleu", "bleu_mc", depth);
bleu_mc._x = bleu_mc._y = 0;

Flash gives me error message:

"Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler"

This Three times on each of the three lines of codes.

What am i doing wrong? What should i type?

Thanks for helping

Quick additional information: it just appears as if any movieclip control
command i type in AS panel, flash CS3 gives same error message! Imagine this
time i put the clip directly manually on stage, gave it an instance name and
just put the code:

bleu_mc._x = bleu_mc._y = 0;

Same error message!!

Where is your code? The code is fine... but it needs to be on the main
timeline.
