Suppose you used Time to delay about 5 seconds after application.creatonComplete, then either set creationPolicy="all" or manually call createChildren() on the desired views?
Kind of half and half, where the app would display quickly, but begin rendering "in the background" without user intervention.

It will add more time to startup, but the user experience may be better; once the application is loaded. -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Mark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm building an app with 4 stacks in my viewStack with a wipe in and > out effect.
