Ok, I have some code that makes a variable based on an MC’s name:
menuToOpen=this+“menu”
which translates into _level0.but1menu
then I try to call a function with this:
menuToOpen.easeY(100)
but it doesn’t work, yet it traces “_level0.but1menu”, and trying the function as this:
_level0.but1menu.easeY(100) does work. Any idea why?
I’ve also attached a mock up if you want to see what I mean.
Thanks for any and al input, this one seems weird to me - but I’m sure there is a completely logical explanation. I’ve used the same sort of idea to open external swfs with no issue.
Thanks everyone,
Adam
///edit, nm, I got it
