RE: [flasher] begin play after movie fully loaded?

[Pradeep K. Nair]

You'll need to use basic actionscript - just use the "if frame is loaded"

command.  There are tons of preloader tutorials available for download at

http://www.were-here.com or http://www.flashkit.com, etc.


What it amounts to is having one frame say "if frame x is loaded, jump to frame

z" and then have frame y (which lies between x and z) to say "go to and play

frame x."  That way, it will keep looping until the condition is true - at which

point it jumps to the first frame of the movie.

# hi!

#

# i've only completed two flash movies and haven't done any action scripting

# yet.  my question is pretty basic.

#

# i would like my flash movie not to begin playback until it is completely

# loaded.  is there a publish movie setting or option that will take care of

# this or do i need to use action scripting?

#

# thanks!
