[Flashcoders] setInterval inside created Clip
Hey All, I'm looping through a structure adding movieclips along the way for each element. I need to setup a separate interval inside each new clip. If I call the function directly, I need this to be constantly updating without an onEnterFrame. _root.work.createEmptyMovieClip( newName, vItemCount ); // var newClip = _root.work[newName]; // // this function redraws the line newClip.doSomething = function() { // {.} } // I've tried all of the following // newClip.intervalid = setInterval(this, doSomething, 200); // newClip.intervalid = newClip.setInterval(doSomething, 200); // newClip.intervalid = setInterval(newClip, doSomething, 200); Any insight or help is appreciated.

RE: [Flashcoders] setInterval inside created Clip
Nope... still won't go. I actually decided to do a little test and when I set the function to be onEnterFrame instead of doSomething, it performs well. The only problem is that I'm unsure how many clips could be running at the same time and I don't want a performance hit... !K -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nick Gerig Sent: February 24, 2006 12:10 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] setInterval inside created Clip maybe: newClip.intervalid = setInterval(newClip,doSomething, 200); Kevin Aebig wrote: Nope... didn't work.
