Actionscript 3.0 - Changing FPS for scenes won't work

I have a scene where if you push a button, it goes to a different scene.

At the beginning code of Scene 2, I have -

stage.frameRate = 40

But, to my surprise, it stays the same FPS!

Should there be a variable for it or something?

Your Main Timeline being a MovieClip...

trace(this, this is MovieClip); // [object MainTimeline] true

you can use the [read-only] property currentScene of a MovieClip:

"The current scene in which the playhead is located in the timeline of the MovieClip instance."

...and the [read-only] property name of a Scene:

"The name of the scene."

Scene 1

function modifyFrameRate():void {
    stage.frameRate = this.currentScene.name == 'Scene 1' ? 2 : 40;
}
modifyFrameRate();

Scene 2

modifyFrameRate();
