flash (macromedia): I have a flash movie that I am working on in flash mx for mac os 10.3,, I want
to incorporate another interactive swf movie I have created from another file.
What is the best way to do this? I have tried copying all of the frames from
the other interactive movie and pasting it into my new one..but most of the
interactivity is lost...It is a pretty complex movie. If I choose to import a
..swf file...that doesn't work either. There must be an easy way to do this?
Anyone?
Thanks sooo much

Mass copy/paste isn't likely to work, as you discovered. Importing
works for animation, but not really interactivity. It just creates a
keyframe for each frame of the imported SWF.

Try looking into the MovieClip.loadMovie() method (ActionScript
dictionary). This lets you import an external SWF on the fly.
