How can I give this vector's members unique values each time?

[E8A4Nwbp]

I made a vector to store multiple values like so:

	for (int i = 0;i< 5;i++)
	{
		X= MenuItemImage::create//...

		XVector.push_back(X);
//...
};

the vector as well as "X" is public.

Now, elsewhere, I want to run another loop, where I give all the values in the X vector a unique position.
I tried this

	std::vector<Vec2> X;

	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 3.55 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.67 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 4.43 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.68 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 4.54 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.66 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 3.56 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.654 + origin.y));
//so on

	
	for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
		Vec2 position = X[i];
		XVector[i]->runAction(MoveTo::create(0.9, Vec2(position)));
	}

but to no avail
What am I doing incorrectly? I have not manipulated the vector anywhere
additionally, is there anyway I can use a for loop like this to achieve the positioning?

for (MenuItemImage *X: XVector) {
	}

What does "but to no avail" mean?

You've been here long enough, under your various different accounts, to know very well that you should give a clear, complete, and precise description of the problem you're seeing.

You've also been here long enough to know very well that you should post a minimal, compilable codeset that reproduces the problem.

It's hard not to conclude that this is just another of your desperate, attention-seeking trolling attempts.

Mike, why would I want to waste your time? this is delaying my project. By this I mean it does not work.
Sorry if the original post seems rushed, too. the initial was 404d
You can't compile this, because it's for a framework...

But otherwise, I will elucidate like you asked:

The first code snippet is a for loop, in which I make 5 "menuitemimages" and each each of those indivual menuitemimages to a public vector

the second code snippet, is where I try to individually run a unique action to each member of the vector.
THE ISSUE IS
The action doesn't work. Nothing happens. Which is odd, what am I missing?

How do you know that these

Vec2(visibleSize.width / 3.55 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.67 + origin.y));
Vec2(visibleSize.width / 4.43 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.68 + origin.y));

would create two different objects?

You're passing different values to the constructor, but what does the constructor do with those values?

Additional question; how do you know they're coming out the same?

the second code snippet, is where I try to individually run a unique action to each member of the vector.
THE ISSUE IS
The action doesn't work.

What does that have to do with

How can I give this vector's members unique values each time

? Your question is very unclear.

Ok, @Repeater taking into account your confusion, I will make a pseudo C++ example.

Somewhere in the header (written from memory, expect code typos)

Gameworks::Sprite H;
std::vector<Gameworks::Sprite*> VectH;

function A:

for (int i = 0;i< 5;i++)
	{
	
            H = Sprite::create([***unique position], [imagefile]);
	    VectH.push_back(H);
}

***the for loop repeats five times, so each H copy goes to a unique position

Ok, the code ABOVE works FINE. It creates FIVE sprites, and they are positioned uniquely. Now a function is called, and this function's purpose is to MOVE all the FIVE SPRITES to another position.

I tried this:

Function B

std::vector<Vec2> X;

	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 3.55 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.67 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 4.43 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.68 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 4.54 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.66 + origin.y));
	X.push_back(Vec2(visibleSize.width / 3.56 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / -0.654 + origin.y));
//so on

	
	for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
		Vec2 position = X[i];
		VectH[i]->runAction(MoveTo::create(0.9, Vec2(position)));
	}

But when this is called, they do not move.
Can you see why, because I unfortunately cannot.

I hope this elucidates things

How do you know that each Vec2 is different?

[E8A4Nwbp]

I used the very same vector of Vec2s before, to position them elsewhere, and it worked

p.s, why do you suspect they wouldn't be?

[E8A4Nwbp]

Here's something, I CAN change their position, If I run a loop like this
But all 5 Hs are affected by the same action, of course, as there is no i++

	for (MenuItemImage *H: VectH) {
		H->//some action
	}

But I can't give each H a unique action, as there isn't a constantly incremented value

[E8A4Nwbp]

Solved. Sorry, the code is fine, It was an error within the code itself elsewhere. I was not trolling, I just forgot something
