The story of the Loader Pro v3
We wanted to help flash users to load contents without writing code, so we have developed the first version of Loader Pro which was a real success because it had the transitions and the progress bar built-in, together with content resize & alignment features.
We’ve collected all customer opinions and requirements sent to our support department in almost 2 years since the Loader Pro v1 was launched. We’ve discussed and planned for a while, than we’ve made the Loader Pro v3 especially to fit your requirements.
MCTE together with Loader Pro V3
Loader Pro V3 supports MCTE transitions on loading content. When the content is loaded, if an instance of
MCTE V3 is attached to it (by drag&drop over), based on the MCTE setup, the Loader Pro V3 will perform show transitions or even transition between MovieClips for some custom patterns. (e.g. FlipOver, 3DCube patterns)
When using the Loader Pro V3 with MCTE transitions, in order to perform the appear transition of the loaded content you need to select the loader's transitionType parameter to "MCTE"
or "MCTEfade".
