Hi Alex, here is an example that could help you and illustrate how to
accomplish what you want
var totalMovieClips:Number = 3;
for ( var i = 0; i < totalMovieClips; i ++ )
{
_root['mc' + i].indexPos = i;
_root[ 'mc' + i ].onRelease = function()
{
trace( 'mc' + this.indexPos + ' onRelease' );
}
_root[ 'mc' + i ].onRollOver = function()
{
trace( 'mc' + this.indexPos + ' onRollOver' );
}
_root[ 'mc' + i ].onRollOut = function()
{
trace( 'mc' + this.indexPos + ' onRollOut' );
}
}
