From what I can tell, you can’t do 3d rotations of text in Flash CS4 ActionScript3.

Is that correct?

And is there a simple workaround so I could put text on a sign that is rotating in 3d?

(I need the text to remain text - so didn’t think I could just turn it into a movie clip).

Maybe make the text a child of an invisible movie clip and make that movieclip a child of the rotating sign?

Is there a better way or is that a reasonable option?  
Thanks
