Hi,

I have a button that loads an external swf movie clip into the main movie. But I need it to load it in at a specific scale and a specific position. Is there an actionscript code for that?

The code I use to just load the movie is:  
on (release) {  
gotoAndStop(“movies”);  
unloadMovieNum(1);  
loadMovieNum(“modules/tour\_display-softkeys.swf”, 1);  
}
