Re: [Flashcoders] Technical - assets question
One way to tackle this is to load your SWF into an empty base SWF. By the way this is not a CS3 specific issue but existed since Flash 5.

Than calling its classes normally? It will work? On Sat, May 3, 2008 at 1:38 AM, Kenneth Kawamoto [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: One way to tackle this is to load your SWF into an empty base SWF.

Re: [Flashcoders] Technical - assets question
Yes, why wouldn't? ...but I suppose root would change to the base SWF if you're using it to access the main timeline of the loadee.

Re: [Flashcoders] Technical - assets question
You could also try setting the ActionScript export frame to 2 and put your preloader on frame 1.
