I need help getting my loaded swf files to play the “out” transition before the next movie loads. I have a main swf with 5 buttons (movie clips) that load external swf onto the stage.
package

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.SimpleButton;

sectionHolder = new MovieClip();
sectionHolder.x = 37;
sectionHolder.y = 42;
addChild( sectionHolder );
sections_array = new Array('./swfs/section1.swf',

addMenuListener();

}
private function removeSWF(e:Event):void

loader.unload();
removeEventListener("removeMe", removeSWF);
}
}
}
The loaded swf has a stop() an intro animation and on the last frame have.
dispatchEvent(new Event(“removeMe”, true));
