Hi there,

I’ve made a bunch of text boxes that just have one or two words in them and some of them had to be rotated. (ie: 45 degree angle) So far the only ones that show up when i test the movie are the ones that are normal (horizontal). Any ideas as to why the rotated boxes that are at angles don’t show up? Do I have to embedd them somehow? I tried “breakapart”, and converting them to graphic symbols but neither of those methods worked.

Thanks very much for anything,

T
