An easy Question for yaa?

i’ve loaded this external .swf, but it appears behind a grid i have, so it 's not clear to see, so i want to bring it forward. what shall i do?

i 'm using this:
on (release) {
_root.blankmc.loadMovie(“theme.swf”);
}

also tried this ,but no luck

on (release) {
_root.blankmc.loadMovie(“theme.swf”,1);
}

:hangover:

move the level of the clip up…?

on (release) {
_root.blankmc.loadMovie(“theme.swf”);
}

That is the correct method.

You must make sure that the blankmc you have on the stage is on a layer above the grid though. The loaded movie will appear on the layer that you have your blank mc on.

i tried that but the balnk mc always managed to get underneath the grid. and the grid covers the whole area that i want to display swf on , so it ll have to be on it .

Tried to change the level, but no luck.

can’t post the .fla ,cuz it too large. So…?

Are you sure its under the grid?

WHen you load a movie in with loadMovie the loaded movies background becomes transparent, so you will be able to see anything behind that.

In order to have a solid background when you load it in, you will have to create an area on the lowest layer in your loaded movie that is a solid color. You can use the rectangle tool for this.

i’m afraid that 's not the answer, cuz i changed the colour, and i can see some bits showing outside the grid clearly. So its not.

The other thing is , when i tried to place the blankmc on the grid , itself, it just goes right underneath it. …???

Well when using just loadMovie there is no way for it to load in and send it below something automatically. You have to tell it to do that.

So you either have something thats telling your loaded clip to go below the grid, or something that is telling your grid to be above your loaded clip.

Without a file, it is hard to tell what.

Do you have a server you can upload to so you can post a link to your file for download?
