    or add this line of code on the timeline:
    movieclip_mc._lockroot = true;
    (where movieclip_mc is the instance name of the movieclip)

    lockroot will tell anything within that movieclip to look at the root level of the movieclip, not the root level of the timeline when using _root.

    • 7. I actually found it from someone here on NT/QBN a while back, and use it all the time.
      And, if you need to go to the document root, you can use _root._parent._root

    • stupid text cuttoff.

      _root._parent._root if have used lockroot on an MC, and end up needing to access the document root.
