Hi guys, I am new to actionscript and new to these parts. I found this tutorial to create a Fireworks animation and I need it in Actionscript 3. I found a thread for the same tutorial with updated coding but it was in Actionscript 2 I believe. I tested that updated coding in Actionscript 3 with no results. Here is the link to the tutorial and it has a downloadable .fla file you can test with.

Here is some of the coding as well.

for (n=8; n\<50; n++) {  
duplicateMovieClip(“bluebit”, “bluebit” add n, n);  
setProperty(“bluebit” add n, \_rotation, random(360));  
setProperty(“bluebit” add n, \_alpha, random(30)+80);  
setProperty(“bluebit” add n, \_xscale, 50+Number(random(60)));  
setProperty(“bluebit” add n, \_yscale, 50+Number(random(60)));  
tellTarget (“bluebit” add n) {  
gotoAndPlay(random(5));  
}  
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
