Sorry if this is a bit long, but it's a hard one to describe...
I have bunches on components inside movieClips (question screens and info pages... text Areas, tickboxes, labels, radio buttons, etc) I am loading modules into my main movie using loadMovieNum(level) which works fine except...
In my loaded module, I set the _visible property of its movieClips to false on frame 1, but regardless of that, when the movie is loaded the component bounding boxes appear on screen for a second or two. Especially the text areas and label components.
I have tried placing a loading graphic over the top of the clips when the module is loaded in, but the graphic glitch occurs regardless.
Has anyone had this happen to them... and how do I get rid of it?
I suppose I could start everything offscreen and then move it into position, but I don;t want to that unless I have to.
Many thanks in advance for your help and for taking the time to read :)
