Creating grids in Flash 8

programming flash
1

Hi All,

I used the following code from Kirupa’s site to create grids in flash:

gridx=30;
gridy=30;
num=0;
for (var i=0;i < 10;i++)
{
for (var j=0;j < 10;j++)
{
dot.duplicateMovieClip(“px”+num,num);
mc=this[“px”+num];
mc._x=gridxi;
mc._y=gridyj;
num++;
}
}
dot._visible=0;

However,it does not seem to work in Flash 8.I created a movie clip and named it px.

Kindly advise me on this.I am a starter in Flash.

In the code you have ‘dot’, try

gridx = 30;
gridy = 30;
num = 0;
for (var i = 0; i<10; i++) {
	for (var j = 0; j<10; j++) {
		var mc = px.duplicateMovieClip("px"+num, num);
		mc = this["px"+num];
		mc._x = gridx*i;
		mc._y = gridy*j;
		num++;
	}
}
px._visible = 0;
