That helps a lot. Thank you.

What are the main advantages to using canvas rather than moving around divs?

I've set a drop shadow with TweenMax and need to remove it. Is there a better way than to set the blur's to zero, etc. ?

Oh my crap. Thanks. Just one of those days where you stare at your code and just can't see it. Thank you so much. I've been waiting for someone to create a loader class like this. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

On other question. I'm now working with swf files. I've added: queue.append( new MP3Loader("swf/ani1.swf", {name:"swfAni1", container:this, autoPlay:true}) ); So in the complete event function how would I get the SWFLoader object back? I've tried a number of combinations but I either get errors or no errors but nothing displays. I thought it would addChild automatically? (when I addChild it fails). Here is how I thought it would work: var ani_1:SWFLoader = LoaderMax.getLoader("swfAni1"); // Then I could use ani_1 with all it's properties...should already be added to the screen..etc. Apparently I'm wrong in my assumption. What am I missing?

Ahhh...thanks. That makes sense.

So I used the demo code and was trying to load in mp3 sounds and then get the MP3Loader class to have access to the volume, etc. The problem was that it gave an error stating that it can't convert the object to that type. If I change the 'snd1' variable in the completeHandler to be of type 'Sound' then it works fine (well..after I put snd1.play() on the next line). Am I not doing this correctly? var queue:LoaderMax = new LoaderMax({name:"mainQueue", onProgress:progressHandler, onComplete:completeHandler, onError:errorHandler}); //append several loaders queue.append( new MP3Loader("mp3/audio.mp3", {name:"audio", repeat:2, autoPlay:true}) ); //start loading queue.load(); function progressHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void { trace("progress: " + event.target.progress); } function completeHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void { var snd1:MP3Loader = LoaderMax.getContent("audio"); trace(event.target + " is complete!"); } function errorHandler(event:LoaderEvent):void { trace("error occured with " + event.target + ": " + event.text); }
