I have no idea why - but the text on my button disappears when I test the movie. It’s fine on the stage, but once I test it - it’s gone! - There’s no action script on my movie yet - so I’m not sure what’s going on…

I’ve even tried making the text just a label on main stage - it _still_ disappears when I put it on top of the button ☹

I’ve arranged the text to be the most forward - I’ve put the text in its own layer - and still it doesn’t show up on the swf ☹

I’ve even made the button partially transparent!
