flash (macromedia): you can dynamically control layers during runtime - your timeline becomes flattened upon export -
copy/paste contents of layer into a Movie Clip (MCs are dynamic and meant to be controlled via
actionscript) and then set it's visability to true/false via a button during runtime.

Hi, everyone

I want to use a layer as a subtitle track, and I want to be able to show/hide it by clicking a button. Any tips?

Thanks.

Thanks, jChris. I didn't realize the timeline became flattened. My subtitle track works now. Thanks!

"Flattened" was the key word.
