Hi,

I have created a preloader which is in the main scene’s timeline which covers 2 frames.

Since I want to tidy up my site I have created a blank scene and gone to INSERT/NEW SYMBOL and created a movie clip that has the preloader in it.

So if I drop my preloader\_mc into my main scene it will only take up 1 frame on one layer. will this work or does it always have to be in the main scene?

Regards

Jon
