Hello List
I am creating a textField in a movieClip called infoBoxMC. The text appears
fine. I can place it by adjusting the x and the y of infoBoxMC. However for
some reason the _alpha of infoBoxMC does not work? I tried to use the debugger
and turn both _alpha and _visible to 0 and to false but it has no effect, the
box is still there...
Any ideas why?
Thanks
stephan
