I was looking for a way to make put a menu like…

Item1 Item4 Item 5 Item 6  
Item2  
Item3

If i look 2 the modulo i can create it like

1 3 5  
2 4 6  
item.\_x = Math.floor(i/2)_150;  
item.\_y = starty+30_(i%2);

or

1 4  
2 5  
3 6  
item.\_x = Math.floor(i/3)_150;  
item.\_y = starty+30_(i%3);

==============================  
Some one with a solution ?
