Thanks for the reply. but it still doesn't work for me. I can only see code1
moving randomly overthe stage, but thereis no sign of code2 movie clip.
Here is a bigger peace of the code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas",this.getNextHighestDepth());//creates an
empty MC in which i attach 2 textMCs
mouseInterval = setInterval(cahngeAlpha, 1);//set interval for bg and hello
world reload
attachMovieInterval = setInterval(attachMovies, 200);//set interval for
green text mc reload
function attachMovies() {
for (var i = 0; i<2; i++) {
canvas.attachMovie("code","code"+i,this.getNextHighestDepth());
canvas.code1._x = random500;
canvas.code1._y = random100;
canvas.code2._x = Stage.width/2;
canvas.code2._y = Stage.height/2;
}
}
function cahngeAlpha() {
a._alpha = (Math.round(_root._xmouse/550*100));
a._xscale = (Math.round(_root._xmouse+250)-1)/0.9998;
a._yscale = (Math.floor(_root._xmouse/550*20+100));
black._alpha = Math.round((550-(_root._xmouse))/550*100);
white._alpha = Math.round(_root._xmouse/550*100);
random500 = Math.random()*100;
random100 = Math.random()*100;
updateAfterEvent();
}
attachMovies();//ou said ihave to put this. but for the other
function(cahngeAlpha) i didnt and it works perfectly!!
have i done a mistake?
