That's very cool. Do you know if the tour is dynamic? I.E. you don't have to create a whole new template and work only in Flash in order for it to make a tour? Our software creates a project file, which any of our viewers (windows, os x, or flash) can natively just open and view. I went to

Yeah, I know, I tried that before, but it was always tracing undefined. This was the only way it seemed to work. Now that I reworked it, giving your comment a second go, it does seem to work - maybe the change event handler was messing things up. I took that out, and it works now. Must have had

Hi I'm trying to reduce the 1st frame load hit for some large external class files. Examining my size report I see 73395 bytes of ActionScript 2.0 Classes being loaded on the first frame. So I assume these class files must load before even my preloader can play...which means a few seconds

There was an old bug with Moz, but I remember people reporting Firefox would not give you enough CPU cycles, so you framerate suffered. It was clearly posted as a Firefox problem, but not sure if 1.5 remedies it or not. Ref: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106397 - Original

If you're going to constantly be creating enemies, you might want to simple do a check of existing enemies and if an enemy is dead, delete it when you create one. The important thing to note is that an enemy cannot call the destroyEnemy() method of its manager because then it's still the same

You have to wait one frame before selecting an item in the combo box. Flash needs to have one frame to draw/instantiate the combo box before you select something on it from code. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com
