Hello!

I　have to swf files.

One is menu.swf and the other is long.swf

Menu.swf has basically a menu and loads long.swf in to it. Long.swf is a file with a very long background, only part of it is displayed at a time.

My question is quite basic- how do I get the menu.swf to load long.swf and go directly to a specific part of the background.

I can get long.swf to go directly where I need it with its internal navigation by using tweenlight, but not from menu.swf.

Thansk guys!
