[AS2] Using multiple _root[]'s?

[Osteel]

Hi,

Well, the best way to ask my question is with the use of examples. So I'll just jump into it.

Lets say you have a bunch of similar movieclips and you want to move anyone of them dynamically. We would use:

_root["box"+counter]._x = 200; 

Something like that. However, my issue is not selecting a movieclip dynamically, but selecting another movieclip dynamically within a dynamically selected movieclip.

Mouthful. Here's what I mean, though this code doesn't work:

_root["box"+counter]._root["obj"+height]._y = 100; 

Thoughts?

Oh, I've found a work around!

I simply just attached the same movieclip instance name every time, moved it and then renamed it to whatever I wanted. I was also using the wrong depth.
