I have a movie clip that I am trying to duplicate with the following code in the first key frame
myVars = new LoadVars();
myVars.load("array.txt");
myVars.onLoad = function() {
varArray = myVars.arrayValue.split(",");
varLength = varArray.length;
i = 0;
x = 0;
for (i=0; i<varLength; i++) {
createEmptyMovieClip("movie_"+i, i);
_root.masterm["movie_"+i].loadMovie("thumbs/"+varArray*, _root);
_root.masterm["movie_"+i]._x = x;
_root.masterm["movie_"+i]._y = 0;
x = x + 68;
}
};
this works great when I have the clip placed already on the stage. My problem is that when I duplicate the clip this:
masterm["movie_"+i]
just updates the parent movie. How would I be able to change the “masterm” to the name of the duplicated movie?
