no.1 is simple,
I would really like to know what an 'instance' is in SWiSH.
no.2 slightly mor difficult.
specifically directed to brian here:
I have used the custom_percentage_preloader for my movie,
but when its finished it goes onto the main page but then flicks back to the preloader and so on and so on.
the url is here: http://www.geocities.com/rob88wells/custom_percentage_preloader.html
can you help?
-thanx;)

1. An Instance (of a sprite) ...

When you create an Instance of a Sprite -- it will basically create a duplicate of that sprite .... Everything in the original sprite will be copied in the "Instance" of it .... And, if you make any changes to the original sprite - they will be reflected in the instance as well ...


2. You need to add a STOP action to the main scene of your movie - or else it will loop back to the preloader scene (and repeat) ...


Hope it helps :D
