Hi there, I was wondering if i could get a bit of help with something.
I am wanting to make it so i have a movie clip on the stage named say, Library_mc. then in the timeline I have Movie clips labled from address1_mc to address30_mc and so on, and what i want it to do is dynamically load one of the address_mc movie clips onto the stage depending on what a number variable is at.
I followed a scrollPane tutorial here on kirupa which pretty much does what i want, and i modified it to load the things into a Loader insead of a scrollPane but it creates new movie clips from the address1_mc it dosent actually take ones from the library and onto the stage.
heres the code i got now.
var i:Number = 0;
var mcMain:MovieClip;
var haltadd:Array = ["add"];
function init() {
//empty movie clip in library with linkage name "library"
addlist.contentPath = "library";
mcMain = addlist.content;
trace(mcMain);
}
init();
function addmore() {
trace(library.address_mc);
if (_root.haltadd[0] == "add") {
//attaching address to the content location stored in mcMain
mcMain.attachMovie("address1_mc","address"+i,mcMain.getNextHighestDepth(),{_y:39*i+3, _x:5});
i++;
addlist.invalidate();
}
if (_root.i>+7) {
_root.haltadd[0] = "stop";
}
}
setInterval(addmore,550);
Is there any way i can modifiy this so it adds it into a movieclip instead of the Loader, coz I cant even figure out how to target the address movie clips that get attatched into the loader stuff.
Thanks any helpwould be appreciated.
