Hello everyone -

I have an event listener (mouseDown) on a movieclip which captures the y co-ordinates of the mouse and passes to a variable.

I need to pass over the variable to the actionscript within the same movieclip for it to act on.

I have tried .this _root _parent etc - how do I do this?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Thanks for the suggestion - I will look into it - I reckon I have been placing script in the wrong places anyway...
