i posted this same exact question last week both to this list, the
flashcoders list and john dowdell (of macromedia fame) directly, with no
response. if you do come up with anything, PLEASE let me know. it seems like
a very standard thing that someone would want to do, particularly if you are
going to make a form of some sort (it doesn't work with dynamic text boxes
either).

Subject: FLASH: Printing dynamic content?


I am trying to print a movieclip that has changing content. The problem is
that when I have a keyframe in the layer that the movieclip appears in, it
reverts to normal (without the changed content). I tried having 4 frames in
the timeline, the first 2 were the active area, the 3rd frame was the #p
label area, and the 4th was the #b label area, and having a changed frame
only in frame 4. As soon as I printed, it somehow hit the #b label and
reverted to normal (even though it never actually PLAYS or SHOWS that
frame).

Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone got this to work before? One
workaround is to keep the layer the same in all 4 frames, but then I don't
have a bounding box to tell me how big to print it. I'd rather be able to
blow up my thing to be full-page.

Thanks!
Rebecca
