I need to know how to duplicate movieclips within a movieclip. I can make it work fine in the main timeline, but when I put the same actions in a movieclip it won't work.
Sample Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
i = 1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
duplicateMovieClip(_root.ball, "b"+i, i);
setProperty("b"+i, _x, random(551));
setProperty("b"+i, _y, random(401));
i++;
}
I don't see anything wrong with that. Why won't it work????

Unless I am getting the wrong idea of what you want to do....
If you have the movieclip stored in the library, simply drag and drop it onto the canvas. Make sure it has its own key frame. That was it only loads one movie clip, but will repeat it as many times as you want.
