Making a preloaderIf you
make big flashfiles its better to do a preloader in front of it. I
explain you how to make a simple preloader.



     Step
#1




Use your current flash file
and make new scene. Call the Scene 'preloader'. The preloader
should be the first scene, because the preloader should start
as first element. (To arrange the scenes use the
Scene-Inspector).



     Step
#2




In the new scene make a
keyframe and make a animation that the frame is loading (e.g.
loading ....). Double click on the keyframe and choose the
action 'If Frame is loaded'. As expression use
'_totalframes'. Into the 'if frame is loaded' event
make a go to action. Select you main scene and frame
number 1. Select Go to an play, too. Press OK.



     Step
#3




Make a second keyframe, and
make again a go to action. Let him go to scene
preloader frame number 1 and choose go to and play. He checks
on frame 1 if the complete movie is loaded. If not he goes to
frame 2 and back to frame 1 ....Your
preloader is finished ;)If you want to see one of
my preloaders just view this site: GizmoGraphix Site 2000
