Why is my mask undefined?

[Guest]

Hello Folks,

i have a short question for which i didn't found an answer in the web.

I have a mask on my stage and i want to animate it with JS.

To get my mask in a object i wrote the following line of code: var mask = this.graphic_mc.mask_mc.

When i now try to manipulate my mask i get the error TypeError: mask is undefined.

Why is my var mask = this.graphic_mc.mask_mc undefined?

Greetings

Hagen

Is there an echo in here?

use the variable mask to reference your mask. eg,

mask.rotation+=3;

read the linked discussion in message 1 to see why that works.
