OK…

I know this has been asked 100x before but i was hoping to get some direct answers.

I’m setting up a presentation that has 14 different sections that auto play. Initialy set it up in main timeline with individual MC’s for each section and transitioned with frame labels - now it’s going on the web and i need a smaller file. Hence external .swf’s

#1. Is there away to not have a preloader before every newly loaded swf? i would like to try and get a seamless transition from one slide to the other - “with out” a blinking screen?

#2. Also - how should i go about adding a play/pause/advance/rewind buttons on the main timeline to control the external swf’s?

Any help is HUUUUUGE!

Thanks.
