hi guys 🙂  
I have a movie clip with transparency set to 0, and a child movie clip with a tween inside it.  
my problem is the tween fires off before I can even see it, so is there any way that I can stop the tween from playing until the parent movie clips transparency = 100.

p.s. I know onenterFrame doesn’t do it ☹

Thanks in advance  
Steven
