Special Pixeldissolve Loader is a component that handles the process of loading and displaying JPEG, SWF, PNG or GIF files or MovieClips from your library with the possibility of resizing the content after five types of pattern: noscale, resize, scale, scaleborder, and crop.
The Special Pixeldissolve Loader component was developed under Flash 8 14114c217o so it can be used only in Flash 8, due to the pixel dissolve effect that only Flash 8 supports.
This component is the ideal thing for what you need when you want to load an image or a swf with a pixel dissolve transition effect that will add style to the loaded content. Just drag the component on the Stage and change the parameters so that the loaded object can be displayed as you like.
The component has some other advantages besides the resizing types, like the possibility to attach a border to the loaded object and to change the color and the size of the border, or to create your own custom preloader by using broadcast events provided by the component or the possibility of just using a built in preloader.
