Preloader on Different Scene

Can I put my preloader on a different scene and then have it jump to another scene to begin my movie? I have only used preloaders on the same scene and same timeline.

This is what I have for code. It is from this forum. A tutorial posted by someone.


if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
 this.gotoAndPlay(1) // Can I change this to reflect 1st frame on 1st scene?

Thank you for any guidance.
