I set a variable called "floorscale" in frame 1 of my main movie timeline. I'd like my movie clips to be able to use this variable. Is this possible? If so, how do I call it from inside my movie clip?

Thanks for the response; I should have mentioned I tried that and it didn't work. However, I've just figured out what DOES work (yea! :) ) :

/:floorscale

/:floorscale is exactly the same as _root.floorscale

/: is Flash 4 deprecated syntax!
