ComboBox Blank when used in loadMovie

khamstra · 04-18-2002, 02:54 PM

Someone Please Help

I have an swf and I am trying to load another swf into it called form.swf. Form.swf has several listBoxes and CombBoxes.

My problem is with the comboBox. It has definate values assigned to it but when you click the arrow for it to drop down it drop downs according to the number there but it does not display them.

So if the record was 5 it has a big white box for 5 items that are not showing up.

This only happens when it is loaded into another movie, other wise it works fine when i view it by itself.

Anyone, Please help,
Thank you, khamstra

I'm having that same problem with a movie I'm working on right now.

I've been fighting with it for a day now and haven't been successful in finding what is causing it or how to get around it.

Give this a shot,

In the movie that loads the SWF, add a font symbol for Arial:

In the library, choose "New Font"
Choose Arial.
In the Linkage for this font symbol, give it linkage ID "Arial".
Make sure "Export in First Frame" is checked.
Export your movie, test.
