trace(_thumbArea.getBoxHeight()); // 108

var shiftValue:int = _thumbArea.getBoxHeight() + _xml.verticalThumbSpacing;
trace(shiftValue); //1084
I've got this nasty 'switch' satement bugging me, not an ideal solution by any means.
I would like to refine it into a function, but I am stumped with an issue. My code is as follows:
[Code]...
When I trace the variable it comes out fine. But when I try to toggle the visibility with it, it doesn't work. I can toggle visibility when I manually type the path name. What am I missing?

I'm trying to read xml fields (with actionscript 3), but the problem is that I choose which field to read dynamically. For example, I may need to read test19 or test39 or test12 or anything else.
var value:Number = event.result.test19;
var value:Number = event.result.test39;
var value:Number = event.result.test12;
Is there a way to construct that event.result.test19 part dynamically? Something like the code idea below

I have an array of project type codes like this:
project_types_array[0] = "p"
project_types_array[1] = "exp"
and a corresponding set of movie clips, exported for actionscript, with names:
type_p
type_exp
I want to somehow dynamically attach a movieclip on the stage according to the project type that exists in the array. I could just do something like this:

I want to reuse these two functions for about 10 items that need to be dragged and dropped. I need to reference 10 Boolean variables on the main timeline by building strings in the functions to make up the Boolean names so I can reuse the functions. Check the coded in red. [URL] Fla is above

I was wondering how I can use something like: var mc:MovieClip = MovieClip(e.currentTarget); as part of another instance name. For example if the currentTarget was a move clip with an instance name of "oneNav" and then I wanted to control a movieclip with the name of "SuboneNav", how could I do it? All the variations of concatenation I'm familiar with weren't working (different variations of ["Sub"+mc]). I tried getting e.currentTarget.name instead but there are issues with using what it returns to reference a movieclip etc...
