MX - Delay Problem with AS

1

This code is on fame one of my buttons mc…

When I click on the first and then the second button everything is great.

As soon as I stop clicking… let’s say… 5-10 seconds of non-clicking time… there is a dramatic delay when displaying a graphic…

Why is this?
I dont understand why this is happening… after the images are loaded, they should just pull right up again… (My thoughts…)

Pleas help.

The code is…

[AS]

but.onPress = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, 1);
_root.container.loadMovie(“images/full/Fogged Eye v1.jpg”);
_root.container._alpha = 0;
_root.container._x = 290;
_root.container._y = 10;
accel = _root.container._alpha+8;
onEnterFrame = function () {
_root.container._alpha += accel;
_root.container1._alpha -= accel;
};
};

but2.onPress = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip(“container1”, 2);
_root.container1.loadMovie(“images/full/Precious Lightning v1.jpg”);
_root.container1._x = 290;
_root.container1._y = 10;
_root.container1._alpha = 0;
accel = _root.container1._alpha+8;
onEnterFrame = function () {
_root.container1._alpha += accel;
_root.container._alpha -= accel;
};
};

[/AS]

it may be because of that onEnterFrame function. Flash probably thinks you are trying to give that button an onEnterFrame, which it can’t do. try changing your oEF function headings to

_parent.onEnterFrame = function() { ... }

I did that… No change…

Thanks for the effort though.

Im not quite sure why this code is having this delaying-- problem…

I will post more code if someone wants to try to help.

I updated the pictures being loaded… I thought it was maybe the filesize of the full pictures. But it wasnt… It’s something with the way things are loaded/AS/objects… Something isnt right…

hhmm…
???

any thoughts?
