duplicate movie clip problem

[MJB3K]

Hi, i would like to duplicate a movie clip and have it start at a specific position on the stage. e.g. Y = 40 & X = 18.

I want it to increment Y by 20 everytime.

This is what i tried:

var j = 1;
for (i = 0; i < videos.length; i++) {
		duplicateMovieClip(_root.mcCat, "mcCater" + i, i);
		_root["mcCater" + i]._y = 20* i;
                
        j++;
}

Any Ideas??

Regards,

Martin

for (i=0; i<videos.length; i++) {
duplicateMovieClip(_root.mcCat, "mcCater"+i, i);
_root["mcCater"+i]._y = 60+20*i;
}

You can put any number you want there.

Alternative:

for (var i = 0, n = videos.length; i<n; i++) {
mcCat.duplicateMovieClip("mcCater"+i, i, {_y:60+20*i});
}
