I’m going to describe my problem as best as i possibly can here. So just bear with me please.
First, i have a background that has a masking effect similiar to kirupa’s here:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/draggingmask.htm
Except i altered it a little so that the mouse is followed by a highlighted circle instead of revealing the picture as the circle passes over the picture, so the picture is constastnly visible. Next, i have a menu at the bottom of my flash movie, and when a button is clicked a new movie is loaded onto the mainstage of the current movie (i.e. full flash sites). Ok, so i made the new movies that open up on the main stage to remenisce actual windows. So the user is capable of moving the window around with the .drag action. Now the highlighted circle/mask is still in the background, never on the new window opened. However, when i move the window, the highlighted circle freezes in it’s place on the background. I can still nav. the rest of the site, but the highlighted circle/mask is frozen in place. I apologize for this being so long and confusing, i hope i described my problem well enough. I need to urgentely fix this problem! Take care, victor.
