I’m a total noob to Flash, and I’m learning it because I want to make a website design that looks like this.

my proposed your actions design

That’s coming from a separate external .fla file not inside my Gaia project.

I currently have a Gaia 3.2.6/FP10/AS3 project with Timeline animation that I just made up today.

The problem is that when I copy and paste those graphic symbols (not the background), into the 1st frame of my home.swf of my Gaia project, the preloader freezes at 50% on the home page.

When I remove the forms from my seperate external .fla file, then copy and paste them into the 1st frame of my Gaia project, the preloader freezes at 100%.

When I draw a square onto the first frame of home.swf, the page loads normally.

I’m putting the objects on a new layer on frame 1.
Please help me.

    Are you using the TLF Engine (TLF textfields)? The Flash CS5 TLF Engine causes some errors when loading SWFs that wreak havoc on the Gaia Framework engine. You can read all about it in this blog post by Steven Sacks, and in this Adobe Technote.

    I think this might be your problem (I had the same happen to me and it drove me crazy for a few days). The solution is simple: Change your TLF Textfields to regular ones (it’s labelled Classic Text, there is a selector on the TextField Properties panel) and (hopefully) everything will work fine.
