Haven't looked at all the code, but it sounds like you're making a movieclip
invisible while still loading content into that
movieclip.
This will make the movieclip visible as soon as the content has loaded.
I mentioned this a few days ago. When loading assets into a movieclip,
everything inside that movieclip will go *poof*. This
includes the movieclips properties being reset.
For instance, with the following code you'd expect the loaded image to be
invisible, well.. it isn't ;-)
this.createEmptyMovieClip("img_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.img_mc._visible = false;
this.img_mc.loadMovie("leaves.jpg");
You should look into using the MovieClipLoader class and listen for events like
onLoadInit()
The following will work and make the movieclip invisible as soon as the image
has loaded:
var mcl:MovieClipLoader;
function onLoadInit(t:MovieClip){
trace("onLoadInit: "+t);
t._visible = false;
}
this.createEmptyMovieClip("img_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
this.mcl = new MovieClipLoader()
this.mcl.addListener(this);
this.mcl.loadClip("leaves.jpg", this.img_mc)

Subject: [Flashcoders] Problems with my Resume button
Hello, I posted this to newbies yesterday and didn't receive a
response. Sorry for the double post, newbies!
I have an strange problem. I am developing a WBT where I have a shell
that is calling subfiles. On the shell I have pause replay and resume,
which generally works fine. The only time it gets confused is when the
subfile calls another file (I have a subfile that brings up review
pages). The pause and replay work great, but the resume is having
problems.
If I click replay before going to the review link within the subfile, I
have issues with the visibility property of reviewPiece_mc. The issue
only happens if I click the replay button before clicking a link within
the subfile.
For instance, in the main file I click replay to replay the current swf
(the subfile). Then I click the link within the subfile, test_btn, to
see the review.
Test_btn brings up L1T1T140.swf, as it is supposed to. When I click the
return_btn, the visibility of the reviewPiece is set to false
(reviewPiece_mc._visible = false;). When I trace it, flash says, yes,
it is false, but, for some reason, when it is still visible. Now, this
ONLY happens when I click replay from my main file before going to the
link in the subfile. If I don't click replay, then everything works
fine. Here is the code in my replay button:
Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Let me know if you need more
details of if what I wrote is not making sense.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Susan
