How to use gotoAndPlay in Animate CC (Canvas) ?

hi everyone,

i guessed simple (indeed, in flash , actionscript, !),
may missed (or don't understand) :

 

in animate cc document ( html5 canvas ), have movieclip called "mymc" on stage.

inside movieclip, there let's 5 differents frames.

and there also  this.stop() on first frame of movieclip...

 

could tell me why can 't target movieclip ?

i believed simple this.mymc.gotoandstop(4) work...
but unfortunately, mymc stays @ first frame. nothings seems happen.

 

how comes ? how can target movieclip on stage ?

 

thanks lot answers, , sure, explanations :-)

mymc needs in properties panel (ie, instance name, not symbol name) , needs exist when code executes.
