Flash help?

**lynnema** · 09:17 AM

Hi All -

I admit to being a total Flash newbie, and am using Flash 8. I created a movie clip in which I took some text, created a symbol out of the text, and wanted to do an alpha fade. Created the alpha fade, created the motion tween and when I run the movie manually by scrubbing over the frames, seems to work fine. But when I test the movie, the symbol is just there with no alpha fade. Grrrr... any thoughts on this?

ETA: Here is the link to the file: http://www.jessweiss.com/tt/test.fla

TIA!

It could be several things, hard to say without looking at the file...

Hey, If you want to get the fla file,i suggest you try to use sothink swf decompiler! It really help you a lot on converting swf to fla. also,it could extract elements from swf into variable formats.
