Lost on loading Level 2004-03-05 - By Jesse Warden
Back Yep.
How about:
_level3._x = -9999; _level3._y = -9999; loading_mc._x = (Stage.width / 2) - (loading_mc._width / 2); loading_mc._y = (Stage.height / 2) - (laoding_mc._height / 2);
>function onEnterFrame(){ > var l = _level3.getBytesLoaded(); > var t = _level3.getTotalBytes(); > if(!isNaN(l)){ > if(l == t){ > if(_level3._width > 1){ > _level3._x = 100; > delete this.onEnterFrame; > } > } > } >}
That way, the movie, while it's loading, as far away from user touch ability... Until it's done of course, and then you can movie your loading message out of the way.

Ok, so if I got this right - your code below - then this positions the movie when it`s done downloading, right? basically I just want to keep the user from pushing buttons while a movie is loading - in order to prevent him from messing up the layout, by causing movies to place somewhere I don`t want em to be. (user interrupts download - maybe cause he decides to have a look at another movie or so...) so I thought maybe it`ll be enough to set.enable = false for every button I don`t want to be pressed while there is download. But this didn`t seem too advanced... I don`t know cheers hannes
