hi
first of all thanks for looking,
problem brief: ok i have a container swf which loads external swfs into container_mc they go as follows > = loads
container swf > start swf > preloader swf > main swf
ok so ive managed to make a button which i thought would be ok, i put it on the main timeline and had the other swf load into a movieclip container.
this button resizes the screen much the same as you would your browser at the top (the squares)
so this button has a toggle effect going on in which we have an maximise off state, a maximise off over state, a minimise on state and a minimise on over state
so ive gotten it to work
except when a new swf loads it doesnt remember what state the button was at and so reverts to frame one which is wrong especially if the screen has already been maximised
ive tried onenterframe listener and can get it going to an extent
the problem is how to have a constant button on screen remembering whether the stage was fullscreen or normal and passing that to the loaded swf so that the button is in the correct state also
hmm as3 really is a pain in the a**
any help very much appreciated as always
thanks
