animation problem

[Vincent is Schattig]

I want to make an arm (upper- and lowerarm). If the upperarm moves, the lower
arm must move with it. If the lower arm rotates, the turning point must be on
the point it is atached to the upperarm. Just like a real person only then in
Flash, so the different bodyparts must be connected in some way. How can I
achieve this?

Can you help me please?

You could do it with lost of parent scripting, using inheritance and
child-object properties, but it's pretty heavy going.

You could also use Flash instead of (or Inside of) Director, because Flash has
multiple level MovieClips so positional inheritance is pretty much built in.

In short, there is no simple way to do this in Director. What's it for?
