    Load Movie

    Hello Everyone,

    I created a Koolmove flash movie which ends at frame 37 and stops playing the movie. On frame (37) theres a navigation menu.
    I added a blank frame 38 at the end of the movie.
    On frame (37)I have a button that goes to frame (38).
    On frame (38)I have the action Load Movie, a swf I made seperatly
    with a black background.
    When I run the Main movie all works fine except that when the movie loads in frame (38)it's black background is transparent all the shapes in the movie appear but the background is transparent. Why?

    Another question is...once the loaded movie ends in frame (38)how
    I make it go back to frame (37)menu automatically?

    Thanks,Jeff

    When a swf is played on another swf it's background color is ignored.
    [The on top background color would negate the background color of the main swf and cause problems.]
    The best thing to do is add a shape to the back of the swf that is the color you want.
    Also, mask off the edges of the swf to keep your "shapes" from leaving the view area.
