yes, you are missing the return type...
public override function set visible(b:Boolean):void{
//whatever
}

i overrode .x .y like this
public override function get x():Number {
return super.x
}public override function set x(value:Number):void {
super.x = value - parent.localToGlobal(gp).x
}I don't remember why exactly you need to return super, but for your case I'm assuming
public override function set visible(b:Boolean){
super.visible = false
}Anyway, seems stupid to do.

A function marked override must exactly match the parameter and return type declaration of the function it is overriding. It must have the same number of parameters, each of the same type, and declare the same return type. If any of the parameters are optional, that must match as well. Both functions must use the same access specifier (public, private, and so on) or namespace attribute as well.

you need to find out if it's intrinsic or not.... if it's intrinsic, you're fucked

are you subclassing DisplayObject?

something tells me you're going to be able to override a native api getter / setter

FLVPlayback is a component though. visible is DisplayObject property that is damn near the core of all things Flash. If they let you monkey with that you could be breaking things left and right.

try and data type the function, at worst it could give you a more descriptive error

That's pretty strange. I mean, i was able to override the play() function for the FLV playback...

never tried overriding a setter
- skelly_b0
I think a lot of the built in stuff is protected.
- +1 if your setter is not public from the main class, then you get failurefusionpixel

I'm trying to override a setter:
public override function set visible(b:Boolean){
//whatever
}but i keep getting this error:1023: Incompatible override.
