Hey guys, I am trying to make Fading Text for my flash intro and this is my problem.
Once I finish the text tweens and press play, the text either is already showing or if I move the layers under the background they won’t show at all. I did the Alpha 0%-100% and it won’t work ☹ I am just really bad at flash, doing something wrong, stupid or all of the above? Thanks (-:

if you’re using dynamic text you need to embed the font or it won’t work :-\
that might be your problem …

to embed the font outline …
select your text field. in the properties panel click on a button that says _character…_ … then select the option that better suits your needs 😉
