Re: FLASH: Setting Specific Load Menu Features

[John Croteau]

Hi Thomas, 


You can't unload the movie on level zero without unloading everything.

We use park instead. A park frame is one that has no buttons and usually

is one that has no images as well. 


In a movie that starts parked it is normally in Frame 1.

In a movie that starts by playing it is usually Frame 2 with frame 1

having a Go to and Play frame 3 action bypasing frame 2 initially.


Unless there is no chance that a movie will be reused we do not normally

use unload and only Park movies. This is because unparking a movie is

instantanious and reloading a movie even when the movie is in memory

there will be a delay while the server rechecks to see if the correct

movie is in memory (and the same size) which causes a small delay and if

unlucky a big delay if Web conditions are bad.
