[Xerte] Using a preloader when loading multimedia

[Patrick Lockley]

Ah ok, 

I am not sure it'd be easy to find one bit of code that'll handle the
loading of all the media.

Might an idea be to overlay a graphic over your interface, and look for
a loaded event on the interface to hide this graphic?

That might be solving the problem with a new problem though.

Mmmm, i thought that MainPreloader is only used while parsing data.xml
and
loading XMLEngine.swf, but after that, MainPreloader has done its job,
and
that is XMLEngine who loads and work with the items of the course.
Am I wrong?

Try MainPreloader.fla :)

Hi there,
As I mentioned in previous mails, we are trying to avoid white screen on
Xerte while loading the content of the course.
And we'd love some guidance in the process. We just started looking at
the
code, but if someone can point us to the right direction we may win a
lot of
time.

We are searching XMLEngine.fla for a piece of code that loads the
external
multimedia. In our case, I think we get the white page, while loading
the
graphic icon containing our custom interface. So I guess we could extend
the
current code that loads graphic icons using a preloader animation.

So, where is this code? :-), or am I completely wrong?

Thank you!
Marc
