passing variables // Attachmovie

[Scorche]

hmm I'm having quite a headache with this - I want to pass a variable to a newly created movie clip
something like this but it's not working


any ideas ?


// my for(x=0 to 10) statement
this.attachMovie("myMov", "newmov"+x , 30-x);
newmov.num = x

[deadbeat]

Two ways:

//Using the initObject:
this.attachMovie("myMov", "newmov"+x , 30-x,{num:x});

//or using a clip reference:
var mc=this.attachMovie("myMov", "newmov"+x , 30-x);
mc.num = x;

HTH,

thanks

I ended up using this
set (("B"+x+".num"),x)
