A movie clip alpha property is controlled by a button ;
(…
on (rollOver) {
setProperty (“carfurnbusmc”, _alpha, “3”);
}
on (rollOut) {
;
setProperty (“carfurnbusmc”, _alpha, “100”);
}
…)
It works as it should do except that some text fields are shown with 100 % alpha ;
( All graphics of carfurnbusmc movie clip are exhibited with 3 % alpha except related txt fields ) ;
What´s wrong?
Hello my friend. Again I am sorry for my absense. I have been busy. I will assume you are using dynamic text. As far as I know Dynamic text will not fade with the alpha property unless you embed the font. Select the text box and in the property box (the floating panel that controls the text) there should be a button that looks like this “[…]” without the quotation marks. Click that to embed the entire font and you should be able to change the alpha. I am not 100% certain, but if I remember correctly it will work. I will send you an answer to those e-mails in a few days. I have much work to do over the next week. 3 tests, and 2 papers…:o
Hi ,
1st off all good luck in your examinations ;
As you get freer I will send you the URL of the site for you to look it.
As a matter of fact the trouble occurs with static text , don´t ask me why ; I realized that if I break apart the text (control + B )
the disorder disappears ;
But after so much I eliminated the alpha set property by a more interesting effect between two screen transitions ;
We´ll “talk” later ;
Cheers

I cannot use alpha property on fonts, but I can break apart them and turn them to a symbol ; this will work ;
Another flash limitation is that movie clips don´t work as masking area , this has limitated a lot what would be very cool effects ;
Cheers
After several attempts I couldn´t manage to mask with a mov clip ;
only thing appears through the mask is that area of object placed at the 1st frame of m clip ; if you say with mx I can do it I think that´s time to migrate no new version (I am a bit afraid with odds I will find)
I´ve been trying to duplicate effects on http://www.fontsforflash.com/ (don´t know if you visited this site if not go there and roll your mouse over buttons "partners , or webdesign , or advertisement ) ;
That´s the reason of my experiences with masking ;
Cheers
