Hi you all!

In the adobe manuals, and also in the Mook book, they write that the loaderInfo INIT event occurs always before the COMPLETE event.

My question: so, is that true that ALL properties that are accessible on Event.INIT are also accessible on Event.COMPLETE?

If true, shouldn’t I always use Event.COMPLETE instead of INIT?

Thank you!
