okay, i have a move where it grabs a list via xml, drags them in, then dumps a bunch of text from the nodes.
let’s just say, for argument, that it lists cd titles from the xml.
how it works, is it duplicates a movieclip, then the next movie clip has a textbox, say, text1… so text1.text = ‘x’; so there’s a list of textboxes, one below another with the title of a cd.
that part is all well and good, except, on the right side of the stage, i have a graphic a gradient alpha 0->100 (so that if the title is loooong, it will appear to fade out, instead of just cutting off).
but the thing is, for all the duplicated movie clips, they appear ABOVE the gradient. i’ve tried setting the target depth of the duplicates anywhere from -500 + i, to 500 + i. they keep appearing above the gradient. (however, the first movieclip behaves as it should… as expected!)
this has me baffled. i assume there’s a setting to tell the gradient to be higher, somehow… i dunno.
thanks
