    MovieClip and intercepting set()s

    I have a Camera class that inherits from Sprite that I don't want to actually move, but I'd like to have MovieClip think it's moving it. I overrode all the set*() functions I care about to do what I want when called instead of moving the Camera sprite itself.. This works perfectly with GTween, since it actually calls Camera:set(). However, I'd like to be able to use MovieClip, but MovieClip appears to do it's transformations behind the scenes and doesn't call any of my overridden set*() functions. Is there something I'm missing, or another way to accomplish this? The only thing I can think of is to actually give MovieClip a real sprite, then create an ENTER_FRAME event to query the state of the sprite, and if it's moved, then run my actual code. However, this seems quite inefficient. I like the fact that currently I only have to process camera code if it's moved.

    Thanks,
