Hmm … seems like i’m going backwards, i’m learning all the basics all over again. Anyways … i’m trying to load another .swf file into the main .swf file … and when it does this, it puts the top left corner of the small movie clip aligned to the center of the main movie clip when it loads it.

Is there a way to be able to position the movie clip another way?

You can move the clip when it loads. I think there an example in the loading technique tutorial on this site.

If you don’t need to load into \_level0, you can load into a MC instance and position it exactly where you want.
