using a loop to place objects in a row.

[evan]

I am trying to place a three items in a row using a loop:

var placement:uint=100;
var bullet:MovieClip;

for(var i:Number = 0; i < 3; i++)
	{trace(placement);
		bullet=new Bullet();
		bullet.x=placement;
		bullet.y=placement+=10;
		addChild(bullet);
//placement+=10;
		}

It seems to be either displaying the three instances on top of eachother or only once -how do I get it to display as a group?

var placement:uint=100;
var bullet:MovieClip;

for(var i:Number = 0; i < 3; i++)
	{//trace(placement);
	
		bullet=new Bullet();
		//bullet.x=placement;
		bullet.x = placement + i*(bullet.width+placement);
		bullet.y+=5;
		addChild(bullet);

		}

- would never have just guessed it outright but I have a further question

I am trying to create a container that changes size as objects get added and removed from it.
