i have a flash movie which loads another movie into it, problem is, the things that are outside the loaded movie is seen.

how do you think i can hide them?

i can’t just mask them because i have a shape outside that actually covers the external movie programatically, even if i mask them the shape will still be widened.

any ideas?
