question for you all....

i had followed this preloader transition tutorial ( http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/p...transition.htm ) and everything works fine, so no preloader problems!!!

BUT

i would like to get the same effect as the transition done in http://www.fontsforflash.com

i tried chaning the mask to zero alpha, etc but the external swf's just appear, the mask does not work. does anyone know of a simpilier way or am i just doing this wrong??

thanks
Tracy
