View Full Version : Dynamic Textfields are invisible but selectable? Why?

Hi there,

I have a main SWF with a movieclip in it which I load other SWF's into depending on which link a user clicks.

This setup works fine until I try to load an SWF which contains a dynamic or input textfield.

The textfields are invisible but I can still select and copy from them. I just can't see them.

THe only thing I can find which might be of some of some use is that the depth of these textfields is -16379 - which puts them right at the bottom of everything!

Is there some way I can change the depth or does anybody have any other suggestions?

Please email me if you need any further info.

Thanks heaps in advance!

Looks like font needs to be embedded!

Is the texfield masked or manipulated in any way?

I already tried embedding the fonts - to no avail.

The textfield is not manipulated or masked in any way.

Also it works fine when I run the SWF by itself. Its only when I load that SWF into my main SWF that I run into problems. THere is no masking in my main SWF either.

THanks for the post anyway,
Cheers

Can you attach your .fla(s)?
