Why is it that when I try to mask an image that is bigger than the content box so that it fits within the borders of the box, the image does not sit flush against the edges? There is a gap between the image and the border lines though the mask set right against the edges of the box’s outline. I have zoomed in to verify that there is no gap between the mask and the box’s inside edges. on the stage it looks fine when the mask is applied but when I play the movie, there are gaps between the image and the iside edges of the box. Someone please help, thx.
you should make sure that the x and y values of them match up… look in the lower left hand corner when you have the movieclips clicked, you can see where they are positioned much more accurately by the x and y values. Make sure they are both on WHOLE numbers, so like 25 and 25 instead of 25.5 and 25.2 or something like that. Are the clips the same size? make sure their width and height are the same then… not just by the eye. Vectors can do some weird displaying stuff at runtime, they might look different than they do on your stage. hope that helps.
Thanx for the suggestion AP! Actually, it is not even a MC I am using but instead just a plain animation on the main stage(an intro). I just wanted to know why what I was seeing on the stage is different from what I would see when I played the movie.
