duplicateMovieClip and for loop problem

[motiejus]

Hi,

I'm creating a flash menu and I have this AS code on the first frame:

import com.greensock.*; 
import com.greensock.easing.*;
TweenPlugin.activate([BlurFilterPlugin, ColorMatrixFilterPlugin, EndArrayPlugin, AutoAlphaPlugin, FrameLabelPlugin, GlowFilterPlugin]);

mc_main.mc_title._alpha = 0;
mc_main.mc_title._y = -20;
TweenLite.to(mc_main.mc_title, 1.5, {_y:-5.5, delay:1, _alpha:100, ease:Back.easeOut});

for (i=0;i<6;i++){
    var temp_mc = mc_main.duplicateMovieClip("mc_main"+i, i+10);
    TweenLite.to(temp_mc, 1.5, {_y:60+(temp_mc._height-20)*i, delay:i*0.5, _alpha:100, ease:Back.easeOut});
    
    TweenMax.to(temp_mc.plane, 0, {colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x333333, amount:1, contrast:3, brightness:2}});
    
    temp_mc.onRollOver = function(){
    _root.temp_mc.gotoAndStop("s1");
    TweenLite.to(temp_mc.mc_title, 1, {glowFilter:{color:0xffff00, alpha:1, blurX:15, blurY:15, quality:3}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
}
    temp_mc.onRollOut = function(){
    _root.temp_mc.gotoAndStop("s2");
    TweenLite.to(temp_mc.mc_title, 1, {glowFilter:{alpha:0}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
}
}

My problem is, that when these MC's duplicates, there is only one (last) which is working.

You can see it in action here: http://mweb.lt/problem.html

Can someone help me to fix it?

for (i=0; i<6; i++) {
	var temp_mc = mc_main.duplicateMovieClip("mc_main"+i, i+10);
	TweenLite.to(temp_mc,1.5,{_y:60+(temp_mc._height-20)*i, delay:i*0.5, _alpha:100, ease:Back.easeOut});
	TweenMax.to(temp_mc.plane,0,{colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x333333, amount:1, contrast:3, brightness:2}});
	temp_mc.onRollOver = function() {
		var mc = this;
		mc.gotoAndStop("s1");
		TweenLite.to(mc.mc_title,1,{glowFilter:{color:0xffff00, alpha:1, blurX:15, blurY:15, quality:3}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
	};
	temp_mc.onRollOut = function() {
		var mc = this;
		mc.gotoAndStop("s2");
		TweenLite.to(mc.mc_title,1,{glowFilter:{alpha:0}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
	};
}

Thanks, now it's working

Maybe would you like to explain why generated temp_mc isn't doing the job?

The variable temp_mc is established in the for loop. At the completion of the for loop, temp_mc is equal to the last duplicated movie clip. So when any of the roll over functions were called, that was the value used - that of the last duplicated movie clip.
