datagrid breaks preloader

[zee taher]

Guys,  Need some help here.  I have a preloader that is in the first two frames.  For some reason it doesn't display until like 30%.  I was able to narrow down the problem that as soon as i take delete the datagrid from the stage and the library, the preloader works from 1% up.  But with the datagrid on the stage, and obviously in the library, the preloader doesn't show untill like 30 %.   Im using band with profiler to test it.

All components have the same issue because they're exported to the first frame by default. You need to uncheck the linkage and manually instantiate. In Publish options (Flash tab), you can set in which frame you want to export your classes.

How do i do that?? manually instantiate?

Rigth click the component in the library, uncheck linkage, drag manually to stage (prior to use, but not in the first frame, so your preloader can works)

its funny, some things work fine, when i do that, and some dont.  Forexample.  The webservice connector doesn't work when i do that.  Same thing with icons that i attacth to a button, they dont work.  Linkage is a pain in the neck.  Any work arounds on this?

And what if my preloader is in my container.  Basically, i have a blank container that loads movie clips.  I put a preloader on that to display on whatever its loading.  Will that work better, and any good examples out there on putting a preloader in a container for what its about to load.  I have been able to do that with a jpg.  But i wasn't very successfull in having a preloader on an swf.  Offcourse im stating that the preloader is located in the movie that loads the child clip.
