Just so you know, I am very much a newbie to flash… but you can probably tell by my questions…

Anyway, I have a series of nested movieclips that on rollOver they come to full alpha value and on rollout they go to like 20 alpha. In one of the clips it has a scroller but when I apply the alpha effect it makes the scrollbar not functional.

How can I make an alpha effect like this with making everything inside the MC functional?

I was using this type of code by the way: my\_mc.alphaTo(20,1);

Thanks
