Problem with Array Scaling

[alex]

I tried to copy one of your examples, this one in particular:

var target:Line = new Line(500,0,500,98.5);
target.draw();
           
var squares:Array = new Array();
for (var i:Number = 0; i<50; i++) {
var x:Number = Math.random() 300;
var w:Number = Math.random() 300;
               
var myRectangle:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, i2, 100, 1);   
        myRectangle.setRegistrationPoint({x:0, y:0});
    myRectangle.lineStyle();
    myRectangle.draw();   
    myRectangle.movieclip._xscale = w;
    squares[i] = myRectangle.movieclip;
}
           
var myScale:Scale = new Scale(squares);
myScale.setOptimizationMode(true);
myScale.animationStyle(6000,Bounce.easeOut);
myScale.run(500,squares[0]._yscale);

But it reports a syntax error with these lines:
var x:Number = Math.random() 300;
var w:Number = Math.random() 300;

I corrected the error by doing this:
var x:Number = Math.random(300);
var w:Number = Math.random(300);

But now only one line is animated, not the 50 so lines.

What obvious problem am I missing :)

Thanks for the help

Hey Alex,

your assumed correction is wrong. It's

var x:Number = Math.random() * 300;
var w:Number = Math.random() * 300;

My documentation tool did not output the mulitplication character. (I should have encoded it, but didn't)

Best,
Alex

Excellent thanks alot :)
Works perfectly.
