[FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Hello,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]In brief… I am trying to use the _visible property of loaded swf files to trigger the opening animations of these files to prevent the animations from playing before the preceding swf animation finishes. The problem is that the property of the loaded swf files read true when false and vice versa. If you click the link again, the property reads correctly (false when false etc). The onEnterFrame handler seems to be the issue, but I need it to read the property. Any help would be appreciated. The code is a bit lengthy, but I posted it for reference sake.[/FONT][/SIZE]
