Hi!..I got a problem with a preloader… doesn’t show from the beginning…just when the .swf is about to load. This is the code:

var root:MovieClip = this;  
root.onEnterFrame = function() {  
tot = root.getBytesTotal();  
car = root.getBytesLoaded();  
por = Math.round((car\*100/tot));  
textoPrecarga.text = “Cargando… “+por+”%”;  
barra.\_xscale = por;  
if (tot == car && car\>0) {  
delete root.onEnterFrame;  
}  
};

It just happens with some .swf files… and I don’t know if it is to do with the structure of these 'cause there are buttons with load movieclips …eg:

on(release) {  
picture.attachMovie(“alum3”, “loadedMovie”, 2);

}
