Kinda like a big prob

1

okay, here goes… im still very new to flash, but i do have a bit of experience…

im making a clan site for a halo clan, i´ve got a decent layout and all that, external swf´s and so on to be loaded at press of a button… BUT
i want it to show dynamic text… through the mask, and i just wont succeed :puzzled:

i´ve tried masking with the actionscript… it wont seem to work, so therefore i now ask one of you to help me… have i done something wrong? or are there other ways of making this thing work?

btw, just how do i do that embed thingy?

click the “character button” in the property inspector with the textfield selected.
If you are wanting to use bold,italic etc as well, you have to go to the library
and create new fonts.

i spoke with the clan leader, and he wants to scrap the thing…
