Any help will be appreciated.

1. How can I make it so when an event occurs (eg. hitTest), that something disappears? Not just makes it invisible or set the alpha to 0, but completely removes it.

2. How do I change the alpha of something when an event occurs (eg. hitTest)? I already made a thread on this but I only got replies from 1 person, and their suggestion didn’t work.

3. How can I change the text in a dynamic text box with actionscript?

Thanks a lot.
