I’m having a REALLY frustrating issue, where an item refuses to show up - but it only happens on Mac OS X in Firefox and Safari.

I can’t post the file, but here is what I know:

1. It is not an embedding issue.
2. It is not a font issue.
3. The class has been instantiated and is present - it just is visually not on the stage or clickable.

I am completely baffled. Can anyone thing of OS X only bugs that would cause this? It works perfectly on PC, and in Opera on OS X.

**Solution:**

I wiggled it. Yeah. Seriously. I moved it one pixel forward, and one pixel back, and voila. This was definitely a bug in the Mac player. Oh, and I :love: Sekasi. Geez. Stupid bug.

God, this is killing me, it is definitely OS X only, and I cannot for the life of me seem to get rid of it…
