Hi, i’m new to kirupa. I’m an advanced flash developer and action scripter with more than 4 years of experience. I need to have an explanation to this problem. I have created a vector shape mask on the timeline that does different shape tweens. There is a movieclip container that is under the mask. When i dynamically load a movieclip from the library into that masked container, it will disappear after the keyframe of the shape tweened mask is reached. Why is that so? Isn’t that illogical? I attached a simple fla demo.
