Same action for all

[JeffBrazil]

Hi,

I have an actionscript that controls the movieclips _alpha through instance names. The problem is: I habe a lot of movieClips and I will use the same action in all of them. The same action, just changing the instance name.
Is there a way to put them (instance name) all together in just one as??

Thanxs
Jefferson :whistle:

Post the code you are using, i'll see if I can help you modify it.

I`ve just done a little of this for you (mp1,mp2,mp3) -obviously untested but shouldn`t be too far away.

I hope it gives you some ideas on how to do the rest.

myArray = ["medioparaibaI.swf", "medioparaibaII.swf", "medioparaibaIII.swf"];
myArray1 = ["Médio Paraíba I", "Médio Paraíba II", "Médio Paraíba III"];
for (var i = 1; i<4; i++) {
clip = this["mp"+i];
clip.ivar = i-1;
clip.onRelease = function() {
loadMovieNum(myArray[this.ivar], "2");
_parent.mapa.unloadMovie();
};
clip.onRollOver = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._alpha>=50) {
this._alpha -= 4;
//parameters for textfield?
_root.createTextField("regiao")
regiao.text = myArray1[this.ivar];
} else {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
};
clip.onRollOut = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this._alpha<=100) {
this._alpha += 4;
regiao.text = "";
}
};
};
}

other things you could do is as suggested above so you only have to type your functions once(accepting different arguements.)
You could put other clips into arrays and loop through the arrays etc.
