Description

Method; creates an empty movie clip as a child of an existing movie clip. This method behaves similarly to the `attachMovie` method, but you don't need to provide an external linkage name for the new movie clip. The registration point for a newly created empty movie clip is the upper left corner. This method fails if any of the parameters are missing.
