Well I am getting crazy about a strange Flash behavior.

I am trying something quiter simple and it aparently works, cause when you test in the timeline (pressing just enter) it works, but in the final movie or using the ctrl+enter it does not.

So there it it:

- I want a text to have 0 in the alpha chanel after some frames have passed by. So i just created a movie clip and puted inside of it a square and a dynamic text containing “text”.

- Then I created a tween and in the first frame the alpha of the movieclip is at 100% and in the last one at 0%.

- When you run the movie the square fades out but the text seens to do not change at all, even beeing in the same movieclip.

Is it a BUG of Flash??

UPDATE: If the text is static then it does fades out

Thanks,

ISk
