Hi all, I’m wondering how to mirror or reflect a dynamic textfield. Okay what I have so far is the following: I’ve created a empty movieclip and I’ve added a dynamic textfield to that movieclip. Through XML, I’ve loaded a text and this works fine. Also the textfield scrolls using the standard flash component UIScroll. What I’m trying to do here is to copy the (empty) movieclip and put it beneath the first one so to speak. If you scroll the text, visually it would look like a glass pane underneath the textfield that mirrors or reflects the text. Is there someone out there who could put me on the right track for this? (hopefull my discription is enough; if not, just gimme a yell =)) Just to make my question a lilltle more visual, here is a site of a friend of mine who has a reflection [http://www.sccreative.nl/index2.html](http://www.sccreative.nl/index2.html) The only thing different here is that the text on his site is static; I would like to reflect not only the text but the scroll as well… ---
