I need some help with my dynamic text. I’m trying to make it fade, but it doesn’t want to fade. I have the text in a MC and I adjust the alpha on that and everything but the dynamic text disappears. If I change it to static text it works just fine. Too bad I need a dynamic text box.
What am I missing here?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Hmm…
I don’t see why you can’t change the looks of the actual text in a MC…
Have you tried gving the text an instance name and then changing it’s alpha that way?
try that out and see where it gets you.

You can’t change the alpha of dynamic text, it will work on the stage, but when you test it, it won’t work.
Hmm… Nevermind then… Well that’s pretty gay…
I guess you can change the clor properties of it to slowly “appear” as f it were fading out or in…

yeah it’s pretty lame, I had to find out the hard way when I was pulling my hair out, trying to fade dynamic text.
lmao… I’m thinking you could make a 10 color label chart and then change the color of the dynamic text at certain intervals to receive the same effect… Could you not?

This seems like a good project… Making a dynamic text fader… 
lol
hahah I’ve never tried it, why don’t you put something together, I’m sure it will be useful to a lot of people. =)
Possibly… My **** server’s ftp client has been down the past week… I haven’t been able to view any of the php files I’ve created…
**** thing… hehe…

I’ll see what I can do… Nil… What Color are you starting with and what color is the background it’s placed on?
well,the background is an image, and the text is a brown. If it had been solid I could fake it but ya know I have to make it as hard as possible.
I’m glad I’m not going crazy with the dynamic text not working. It looks fine when you run through the timeline, but when you actually make an swf, poof. there it is.
Thanks for the interest.
