As3 flash getChildAt (0) .someMethod access

Question

I can do this getChildAt (0) .alpha = 0;

But this raises the error getChildAt (0) .gotoAndStop (2);

How do I access movie clip methods using an array of displayed lists?

Answer 1

getChildAt does not return a movie clip, so you need to execute it first using the keyword as:

(getChildAt(0) as MovieClip).gotoAndStop(2);
