flash (macromedia): My flash components are loading blank unless I change the export settings to
export classes on the first frame. This makes the first frame file size 128 kb
and it makes my pre-loaders pretty much useless because it doesn't even load
the preloader until the entire first frame is loaded. The component I'm using
is just a button for submitting. Does anyone have any idea what I might could
do to fix this? Thanks!

the nature of linkage content is that it does not have physicals place on timeline.
Flash drop it on first frame and load it before anything else to make sure it is available
for actions as soon as the movie starts. That means anything loader must hold till then.

You can make your own button .
Or load this movie in level . By loading in level you can return the entire file size not just
frames content , have the preloader kick in as soon as first bytes get loaded.
That's of course extra trouble but you must compromise if you choose to use linkage content.

Well , best not to use component . Make your own , you can than control entirely how your movie works.
But that's might not easy so another best is to load that movie in level like I mentioned in
previous reply.
You main movie is always level zero . You can make blank movie with preloader only and loa your
movie in level 1 . Above the blank one .
You can than build preloader in blank movie and it will check overall loaded file size regardless
linkage . Making the loader kick in as soon as the movie start loading .
