container problem?

Hi, i have a container object and i added a block into my container. The block was duplicated several times.

When i play it, there appears to be several duplicate of the parent object.

Anyone knows what's the problem?

Can you post the .capx plz. Will make it easier to help you.

the parent is being duplicated 4 times?

That's how containers work. If you create one of the objects then it automatically creates all of the other objects in the container.

"Parent" and "child" are kind of misleading names. A container is a group of objects. You have a group of 2 objects - a red sprite and a green sprite. When you run the layout you get 4 groups - 1 red and 1 green in each. If you want a group of 5 objects, you need to make 4 separate green objects and add them all to the container.
