Call a movieclip named from a var

[domi85]

Hello,

I would like to make some tweens with movieclips, but these movie clips change from a var . I made this code :

 

activite = function() { // function that determines the movieclips concerned by the tween
var clipactif:MovieClip = this["clip_"+actif];
var imagegauche:MovieClip = this["image_"+synopsis+"_gauche"];
var imagedroite:MovieClip = this["image_"+synopsis+"_droite"];
};
bouton_rubrique2.onRelease = function() {
activite();
TweenLite.to(clipactif,1,{autoAlpha:0}); // the movieclips determined with activite() disappear
TweenLite.to(imagegauche,1,{_x:-460});
clip_rubrique2._x = 38;
TweenLite.to(clip_rubrique2,1,{autoAlpha:100}); // the new movieclips appear
TweenLite.to(image_rubrique2_droite,1,{_x:1000});
}

 

You would help me very much !

Thanks in advance,

The problem is that you're defining your variables as LOCAL variables inside your function. Local variables are always deleted as soon as the parent function finishes running. So you just need to define those variables outside your function.

 

var clipactif:MovieClip;
activite = function() { 
  clipactif = this["clip_"+actif];
};
