i am trying to make a rectangle invisible in by using the code rectangle\_mc.\_visible = false in the first frame.

the rectangle is still drawn in the first frame :td:, but then quickly disappears once the \_visible = false is processed.

how do I keep the rectangle from being drawn in the first frame? :puzzle:
