You set the creationPolicy="none" on your containers, then use methods that explicitly cause the children to be instantiated. There is a white paper or technote about this somewhere.

My Splash page is part of a viewStack as is the application page. The data is loaded with the splash page being displayed. The performance problem is with the rendering of the application page. This page is initialized when I select it in the viewstack. So the question is how do I get the page to construct while it is not displayed, and then switch to it when it has rendered. Thanks. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "JesterXL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Throw your splash page in a modal popup? > > import mx.managers.PopUpManager; > > splash = PopUpManager.createPopUp(mx.core.Application.application, > YourSplashComponent, > true); > > > // later > > splash.deletePopUp(); > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "viraf_bankwalla" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> > Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 10:07 AM > Subject: [flexcoders] Rendering in background > > > > > Hi, > > I have an application that displays a splash page on startup.
