Thank you for trying to help me... I really appreciate it, none the less when the complete code is:

var maskStart:Number = 166;
var maskFinish:Number = 396;
var maskMove:Number = maskFinish - maskStart;
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var fileURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("portaro2009.swf");

myLoader.load(fileURL);

Hi Sol,
Set the alpha property of the myLogo movieclip to zero :
if (event.bytesLoaded == event.bytesTotal) {
myLogo.alpha = 0;
removeChild(logoMask);
addChild(myLoader);
}

If you have fallowed exactly the tutorial you should have no problem. Try downloading the source file and confront that with your file.

I am using your exact code and the text isn't being removed from the stage. I can see it in my movie. Am I missing something?

In this tutorial is used ActionScript 3.0.On this blog you will find a tutorial that shows how to make a preloader using ActionScript 2.0: Advanced preloader. All you have to do is to figure how to load the PNGs (it’s not so hard) and to relate that code with you needs.

Does this require ActionScript 3? I am using Flash 8 which only gives me access to AS2. My goal is to create a preloader that will show the status of an external PNG (or multiple PNGs) loading. Your tutorial seems to address this goal. Thanks.

I’m glad that find my tutorial helpful. Yes the alpha property is accessible in AS 3, alpha takes values from 0 to 1.Don’t forget to convert your text to a MovieClip.

2008-03-06T03:49:00.000-08:00

Your tutorial is very helpful. I now have the idea to make the text fade in fully from invisible to completely visible... not using a mask but setting the opacity or alpha based on the percent of the external file that's loaded at the time. Is that property accessible from AS 3.0?

Thanks again!
