    Converting scenes to MCs???

    Hey,

    Is there an easy way to convert scenes to movieclips?

    I have made my swf file with each page in a different scene. I have since read that that is a bad thing. I now know I would be able to organise it better if I had the pages loading as movieclips.

    Cheers,
    Chris

    I would just copy and paste the frames of the scene into an MC of the same name. I'm not sure if it would work, but, technically, it should be fine.

    you could always convert each scene into it's own FLA, then load each page in as an external .swf file using loadMovie() or loadMovieNum(). Just make sure that whatever code you use in each scene references the correct things....for example, if you turn a scene into an mc, or publish it as an external swf to load into the main movie, you'll need to change code that references _root... because most likely whatever was originally was on the _root timeline will now be on it's own timeline... and you don't want them to interfere..
    Please DO NOT PM me simply for individual help. Post in the public forums...that's what they are for, and they allow others to benefit as well. - Thx
