Re: AS3 MovieClip position

var newY: int;

var row:int = 3;

var offsetY: int = 50;

var pieceHeight: int = 70;

mc.row = new int(row);

newY = offsetY + mc.row * pieceHeight;

trace (newY);

Also, do NEVER use the "while" loop in AS3. That may be the problem. The while loop makes the SWF project react infinite times unless it returns false. It is only useful if used like the "for" loop (by increasing / decreasing the value for each update).

In this case, it could be useful in these terms:

while (row < 9)

{

     mc.row = row;

     row++;

}

Which is the same as:

for (row = 0; row < 9; row++) {

     mc.row = row;

}
