[Flashcoders] Creating Rows of objects

[Flash Mel]

Hello,

Here is what I have so far:

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

m = 0;
numTiles = 112;

function placeTiles() {
    if (m == numTiles){
        m = 0;
        clearInterval(buildTiles);
    } else {
        _root.attachMovie("square", "tile" + m + "_mc", m, {_x:m % 14 * 50,
_y:Math.floor(m / 14) * 50});
        myObj = "tile" + m + "_mc";
        new Tween(_root[myObj], "_alpha", Regular.easeInOut, 0, 100, 35,
false);
        _root[myObj].number_text.text = m;
        m++;
    }
}

buildTiles = setInterval(placeTiles, 30);

This works fine.  Builds the rows one after another.  But what I am trying
to do is build one row across and one down.  Make sense?

In essence:

123
456
789

That sequence would display:

1

then

12
4

then

123
45
7

and so on

123
456
78

until all the objects fill the screen.

Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Ciao,

fM
