im sure this question has been answered before, but ive searched the forums with no luck. what im trying to do is basically what the subject says. i want to be able to load an external .swf using a wipe type of transition. for example. theres 10 buttons on the main .swf (level 0). if the user presses any one of the ten i want the current content (level 1) to stay on screen while this wipe animation plays. once the wipe has taken over the entire content area, i want the selected .swf to be loaded behind the wipe. then when the wipe finishes the new content will be displayed (level 1 again) … this is probably pretty simple but i cant figure out how to do it. any help on this would be awesome.
thanks!

Take a look at this thread, Soulty and I posted a few example FLA files that should give you an idea.
