Folks I have a movie I am working on but when I view my text in Flash it does exactly what I want with motion, text effects etc but when I preview I only see the raw text without the effects and motion I saw in Flash.

By effects I mean I used Color Alpa settings and motion tween only.

I uploaded the test.fla and test.swf file in case someone can take a look and maybe help. Been trying for a while but no results.

Thanks Appreciate any help  
Dave

the “Symbol 1” movie clip in your library contains dynamic text. change it to static.
