hi!

I read [a kirupa tutorial on swapDepths](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/swapdepth.htm) and used the swapwindow\_final.fla it provided. It works great on its own.

But when I try to load swapwindow\_final.swf from loadMovie.swf, **the swapping effect is gone**.:h:

I did not change anything in swapwindow\_final.fla and I’m guessing that I need to make an adjustment with my loadMovie.fla, but I don’t know what to do. The code for loadMovie.fla is:

```auto
var file:String = "swapwindow_final.swf";
loadMovie(file,"loader");

```

I attached the FLAs here. Help please? 🍺
