use a variable as a parameter of SET PROPERTY

[ptitbob]

I would like to use a variable as a parameter in the following instruction... It just doesn't work! Why and how can I turn it right?

Set Variable: "i" = 20
Set Property ("toto", Alpha) = "i"

try (no guarantee, just an idea..I'm not a flash person)
set Property ("toto", Alpha = number(i)
I think what is happening is it thinks i is a string and hence doesn't know what to do with it. Also "i" isn't the same as i. i is a varialbe where "i" is a string, important difference.

setProperty ("toto", _alpha, i);

i must be set as expression, not " " string
