Ok, I've discovered the problem I was having previously -- to sum up, I have a .swf movie that plays beautifully on its own.
I then started coding a shell to, on different durations (setInterval) load in this and other .swf into a movieclip. I've been VERY careful about scope issues, not doing anything in _root, but each 'sub' flash has it's own named movieclip to load all it's do-dads. The SHELL movie uses a MovieClipLoader to load in each of the subclips, and it's main object, gPlay (a global) has a gPlay.onLoadInit(ev) as it's listener. When the SUBCLIP does a SETMASK on some movies, they trigger the gPlay.onLoadInit !!! Now, here's the interesting tracing: SETIMAGE MASK SETMASK_level0.mc_1048578.imageL X: true IN TF SETIMAGE MASK SETMASK_level0.mc_1048577.imageL X: true IN TF SETIMAGE MASK SETMASK_level0.mc_1048576.imageL X: true 7459 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7459 EV _level0.mc_1048578 mc_1048578 7459 7459 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7459 EV _level0.mc_1048577 mc_1048577 7459 7459 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7459 EV _level0.mc_1048576 mc_1048576 7459 startItem So it seems that the mc_1048576 is a new movie that is created based on the setMask and then triggers any 'onLoadInit' --- ??? WAIT: In the subclip I've set 'this._lockroot = true' as a test. I've changed any 'setMask' to manually masking in the timeline. I'm still getting something weird: EV _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 mc_1 7347 7527 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7527 EV _level0.mc_1048578 mc_1048578 7527 7527 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7527 EV _level0.mc_1048577 mc_1048577 7527 7527 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_1 7527 EV _level0.mc_1048576 mc_1048576 7527 startItem #### POS: 0 SUBIMAGE _level0.mainWindow.mc_2 14402 dispItem _level0.mainWindow.mc_2 14402 EV _level0.mainWindow.mc_2 mc_2 14402 startItem #### POS: 1 SUBIMAGE _level0.mainWindow. _______________________________________________ [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
