Flash setProperty

• nosaj

  I'm having trouble using a variable as a value while using setProperty. Any suggestions?

  works:
  setProperty(_root.my_mc, _x, 50);

  doesn't work:
  setProperty(_root.my_mc, _x, _root.myVar);

  Just a guess, but maybe Flash is interpreting the variable as a string and not a numeral. :\

  that's a deprecated format.

  Use something like this instead:
  var myVar:Number = 50; //Whatever variable u want to use.
  _root.my_mc._x = myVar; //The new example.
