Hi Everyone,

I’m trying to fade in/out a component (in particular the Window one).

I.e. compOne.\_alpha -= 10; // Using an onEnterFrame function

It does the job, however the text doesn’t seem to be able to fade in/out (the title/label text), it’s alpha level is always 100%.

Does anyone one know why? or if there is a way to get around it?

Thanks in advance.
