Ok, I'm sorry for using up so many topics...but I have LOTS of questions this morning...

I USED to have a problem with printing transparency and all that other type of stuff...(you all remember me posting about it multiple times)...until I found printasbitmap

Well, now I have a new delimma...the way the page is set up, I have the main page, and when you click on any of the sections, it loads other swf's on top of the current page, and the page goes to a 'blackout' page where the background is basically a template...(see
Well, my problem is, with the print as bitmap function, if I just print the front page, it works, but as soon as I go to any other pages, my loading page prints...=(

Also, another slight problem is getting it so the user prints the page as a selection, or else it prints each individual layer, and I DONT WANT THAT. Is there any way of killing it all and making it 1 layer?...like the merge down function in adobe photoshop?
 
Ok, sweetness, I found out 1 piece of the puzzle...I had to set the 'blackout' page to be printable...now, the only problem is printing multiple layers that load onto the page.

With that function, I need to print any layer 1-5 I believe...also, anyone know about printing it as a selection...or merging or some way around the problem of when I press that print button, it wanting to print 11 pages (each one a seperate frame)
 
Does anyone know how to print every layer that is loaded on the page?...

I have actionscript load a movie and they are loaded on UP TO 7 different layers/levels...I need to print all of the levels, but the way I have it set up, the background is part of 1 main movie, and the movie loads SWF's onto it's background...the background is the only thing that prints...

Is there any way of printing multiple layers?...

Sorry if I sound antzy on this subject, it's been a couple days of me trying to figure this out...and when I want to do something, I do everything I can to make sure I dont fail...:-Q
