    Default Projector loses focus

    I have a bmp 'loader' file displayed while my projector file loads, but once
    the loading has completed and the projector starts, the projector loses focus
    and is displayed behind windows explorer. Has anyone else had this problem
    beforem, and is there a solution?

    Default Re: Projector loses focus

    basically, what I do, is include a (the Stage).moveToFront() in my "go
    to the frame" loop

    if your projector runs with "animate in background" then it should work; and
    you can finesse it a bit so it is only called if the stage is actually out of
    focus.

    keep in mind that this will keep the stage in front no matter what, so
    it may not be a great solution unless that's what you need.

    alternatively you could place it in a frame script about the 2nd or 3rd frame
    to make sure it just runs the once initially.
