Hi

I have this movieclip into which i load clips from the library. Is there any way I can have a semi transparent mask on the container-clip?

I’ve tried the obvious stuff, setting the mask with code, change casheAsBitmap to true and adding another level of container so that I load my clips into another container that resides in the original container-clip but neither seems to work.
