Resizing Workspace

I'm having a HUGE printing problem, on the SWF's I load onto the main movie, when I go to print, I can't print on multiple levels...=(

I've tried almost everything, but this is the end of it...if this doesn't work I'm just gonna say "If ya want to print it, then your outta luck"

What I was thinking of doing was resizing the workspace around the SWF's I have to load and loading them all on the same level...is this feasable?...would anyone be willing to look at some of the files for me?...I really need help on this one.
 
hi White

This 'may' be easily resolved by not only inserting the print action, but unloading all unnecessary levels prior to the action, and then an immediate reinstatement of the loaded movies after the print action.

i.e. on the press of your 'print' button, you don't initiate a 'print' action, rather, you initiate a 'print' control mc which closes down (or 'unloads' all irrelevant movies), THEN initiates the PRINT statement, and then reloads all previously relevant movies back into your site. The user shouldn't notice the transition as long as the correct frames were marker for printing and the correct movies were loaded/unloaded.

More than welcome to send the zipped files and exact details to my e-mail and if I sort it out I'll let all know what had to be done.
