Hi,
I created a textfield dynamically through actionscript 3.0 code. The bizarre things is, is that when I call my textfield (it’s var is pmlabel), I am able to use other properties properly, but not alpha. For example:
pmlable.visible = false;
That works and makes the textfield invisible. Another example:
pmlabel.text = “Something”;
That works and fills the textfield with the word Something. But when I try this:
pmlabel.alpha = 0.5;
Nothing appears to change. I have run a trace statement like this before and after the statement as follows:
trace(pmlable.alpha);
pmlabel.alpha = 0.5;
trace(pmlable.alpha);
output is:
1
0.5
Why won’t it actually fade my textfield? Thanks.
