Hi Geoff,
Thanks for your response.
I didn't test the class version, because currently i'm not using any
proyect without a preloader a loading content after frame 1. For this
reason I can't figure if in that case the residual TextField issue
happen or no.
I test my script modification of your class in two proyects and
*seems* to work ok, but I notice the strange Textfield there. You can
go and test if have it. It must be empty and positioned near top-left.
But you notice that there's something there because you get your
cursor changed to the textfield cursor and all things below it can't
get focus through your mouse.
For this reason I *must* unload the updater. This removes the TextField.
Thanks again Geoff for your solution : ).
