    Hi
    I have made my swf file with WIldform FX . Now I want to use that movie in a main movie which I am creating in FLASH 5. The scenario :-
    In the Flash movie I have got another submovie in which I wish to import the swf created by Wildform. This generated swf is created all right while I play it in my standalone Flash Player . But when I am importing the file inside the movie( mc) , the effects are showing but not the text portion behind it . I have used the Diffuse Light Effect from Wildform swfx.
    Please help ... as soon as possible ... because my site is only stuck up at that point . THANX

    "Diffuse Light" is one of the Flash 4 effects and thus must be used in conjuction with the loadMovie action or embedded in an html page with object and embed tags.

    For more information, see the post titled "NEW USERS OF SWFX....READ THIS".

    Take it easy

    LOAD MOVIE : How to ??

    Thanx for pointing out to the other posts . But I have read them . But still unable to understand . As you are mentioning making a empty symbol ( Movie) But when I try to do it , Flash 5 says can't attach On Mouse Event action on Movie Clip , it has to be a Button , Obviously.
    Also how do I load a movie on a specific portion of the stage .. it is usualy taking the top left hand corner by default in Level 1 (target) and all over the main movie in Level 0.
    Please explain further .

    Thanx

    There are a number of different ways to do it. Here a few:
    • You can use a frame action (insert a keyframe, select it and enter it in the Frame Actions Panel using the loadMovie action from the Basic Actions)
    • You can select the empty movie clip and use the onClipEvent action - you get the same selection choices for mouse behavior as you do with a button
    • You can have a separate button that loads the movie when pressed

    As for loading the effect into a specific part of the stage...that is one the reasons for using an empty clip instead of a level. Wherever the center of your empty clip is, that will be the upper left corner of your loaded movie. You can position it anywhere on the stage you wish. You can also move the position of the clip by setting the x and y properties with actionscript.
