Levels are global in a Flash movie and independent of the loaded movies. Don't mess however levels with depths! Actually levels belong not to movies but to the Flash player itself. Each level has its main movie (= _root), independent of each other. I suggest you to avoid using levels, using nested movies will be more flexible. nc> so this is the set up again: nc> nc> root loads nc> swf 2 into level 1, which then loads nc> swf 3 onto (it's?) level 1 in this case swf3 will overwrite swf2 on level1, since levels are global nc> swf 3 can also be loaded from the root level, There is no root level, just levels starting from 0 and counting up, and each level is a root for its content, so scripts in levels may refer to _root, which actually means the main movie of that level. So _root in level 0 refers to _level0, _root in level 1 refers to _level1, etc. Attila _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
