Question

I am writing a multiple choice quiz using AS3. And, I want to display answer options in columns of 2 0r 3 such as:

 A) Answer A B) Answer B  C) Answer C
 D) Answer D E) Answer E

I use this to accomplish the layout,

answerTextField.x=(j%3) * 200 ;
answerTextField.y=  questionName.y + 20 + ((j % 2) * 20) ;

but it produces

 A) Answer A E) Answer E  C) Answer C
 D) Answer D B) Answer B

How can we solve this problem or is there any other way to accomplish the layout.

Answer 1

I solved:

answerTextField.y=  questionName.y + 20 + (int(j / 2) * 20) ;
