Run code at end of loop?

Run code at end of loop ?

Hi all

This is another problem with a problem I just fixed.

I’m creating a simple navigation from an MC (navBtn) in the library.
The MC’s are added using a loop with the text on the MC’s coming from an array,
(in the actual code it’s from XML).

When the loop has finished I wanted to create a final contact button using the same
MC in the library.

I’m using an if statement to determine the end of the loop


if (i>=nameArr.length) {
		navCon = new Btn();
		navCon.name='contact';
		txtTF.text = 'Contact';
		txtTF.setTextFormat(format);
		navCon.width=txtTF.width+5;
		navContainer.addChild(navCon);
		navCon.x=500;
}

This if statement doesn’t work and it either doesn’t put the contact MC in or puts
it in the place of the final btn MC.

How can I make sure this final MC is added when the loop HAS finished.
