FMX=Preloader does not come out on loadmovie

When i load an swf, it does not show my preloader which is a movie clip. How can i fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.(not an understatement)

Thanks

help us to help you.
always post your code or attach the fla :slight_smile:

if (_framesloaded>= “kbs/number of frames” ) {
gotoAndPlay (2);
} else {
gotoAndPlay (1);
}

That is the script i am using in the external SWF that i want to load.

When i load it into a movie clip, it does not show the preloader(which is just a blinking LOADING text) When it was online, it just was blank, and then, after loading, the SWF played fine (without the preloader showing up)

I also have a stop action on Frame 1 of the SWF

is that all you code ??!

by the way … this looks weird …

if (_framesloaded>= **"kbs/number of frames"**) {
gotoAndPlay (2);
} else {
gotoAndPlay (1);
}

how can a string be less than or equal to _framesloaded?? :crazy:

that was just an example script, That is where the number of my total frames will be

… :sleep:

post your code. i don’t need an example :stuck_out_tongue:
i need your script to try to figure out what’s wrong :slight_smile:

if (_framesloaded>= “44” ) {
gotoAndPlay (2);
} else {
gotoAndPlay (1);
}

That is the script in The Swf I am calling up… Then I have that SWF called up and put into an empty movie clip called CLIP1. I use the _root.CLIP1.loadmovie… on a button. And then the movie loads into the CLIP1, but there is no loading, you can not see it when it was online, there would be no preloader…
am i doing something wrong?
