Hey all.

I’m trying to get a series of swf’s to load one after another within the same content area of a web page. I currently have a container that uses “loadMovieNum(“name.swf”, 0);” to load the next swf, and so on and so on.

Right now it works, but the transition between the swf’s is a bit harsh. I have the ending frames on one the same as the beginning as the next, but there is still a jump. I’ve tried looking at the “Transitions between external swf’s” tutorial, but since I’m pretty new to scripting I’m not sure how to make it work for me, if I can.

Can anyone suggest how to smooth this out?

I can post a test if necessary.

Thanks,  
Michael

willing to help, but not exactly clear on what you are wanting to do. do you simply want a transition effect that occurs when loading/unloading into a content area?

Thanks for replying.

Hopefully I can make this more clear…

I have a web page with an area where my flash stuff will load. Let’s call it the content area.

Within that content area a “container” swf will load. From within this “container” one .swf will load after another using the “loadMovieNum(“name.swf”, 0);” action script.

Right now each .swf shares an ending and beginning frame artwork so the transition should be seamless.

Result: the actual loading of each .swf works good, but there is a “jump” in the transition where the next .swf loads.

What I would like to know is is there some way to “preload” the next .swf in memory so as not to have that “jump” between .swf’s and the transition is smooth?

I hope that’s a better description.

Thanks,  
Michael
