-- at first i set the properties in every behavior:
property canvasSprite
property surfaceSprite
property vectorSprite
property crossSprite
property ballSprite
on beginSprite me
canvasSprite = sprite( 2)
surfaceSprite = sprite( 7)
vectorSprite = sprite(10)
crossSprite = sprite(12)
ballSprite = sprite(14)
end beginSprite me
--------------
-- then i put them in the movie script:
global canvasSprite
global surfaceSprite
global vectorSprite
global crossSprite
global ballSprite
on PrepareMovie
canvasSprite = sprite( 2)
surfaceSprite = sprite( 7)
vectorSprite = sprite(10)
crossSprite = sprite(12)
ballSprite = sprite(14)
end PrepareMovie
on stopMovie
clearGlobals
end stopMovie
which way is faster? or is there no difference? i changed a lot of
things in the scripts,
so it could be something else that slows down the movie.
Thanks for your reply, Julius.
