I want to develop a Christmas tree, how can i populate this triangle with elements dinammicaly loaded from the library?..the code so far…  
\<code\>  
for(var i:Number =0; i\<MenuArr.childNodes.length ;i++){  
var star:MovieClip = \_root.attachMovie(“estrella”,“star”+i,\_root.getNextHighestDepth());  
star.starId = MenuArr.childNodes\*.attributes.id;  
star.nombre = MenuArr.childNodes\*.attributes.nombre;  
star.texto = MenuArr.childNodes\*.attributes.texto;  
//Posicionamiento.  
star.\_x = randRange(coordenadas[3], coordenadas[2]);  
star.\_y = randRange(coordenadas[1], coordenadas[0]);  
if(landing\_mc.hitTest(star)){  
//star.\_alpha = 20;  
};  
};

function boundsLanding():Void{  
var bounds\_obj:Object = landing\_mc.getBounds(this);  
for (var i in bounds\_obj) {  
coordenadas.push(bounds\_obj\*);  
};  
};

//Random a partir de un RANGO.  
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {  
//trace(min); trace(max);  
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() \* (max - min + 1)) + min;  
return randomNum;  
};  
\</code\>

txs in advance!
