Right guys i am having problems with dynamic txt fields and masking layers.

First problem

1. I have a mc with dynamic txt fields in it, the mc is masked but now i can't see the txt

2. Input txt fields in the same mc won't allow me to input data (text).

Any ideas guys

Cheers

Embed the font in the field and it will work.

Can't have both. Try using pixel fonts.

WEY HEY am a sorted :) :)

I am using Flash mx and i t would seem with flash mx i can give dynamic txt fields instance names :)

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if ((_root.win3mx == true) && (_root.win3.win3dis._y>=-37)) {
_root.win3.win3dis._y -= 5;
_root.win3.gbdata.gbfield._x = 300;
}
}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if ((_root.win3mx == false) && (_root.win3.win3dis._y<=94)) {
_root.win3.win3dis._y += 5;
_root.win3.gbdata.gbfield._x = 0;
}
}

If you can't mask it just move it out of sight :) :) :)

Cheers for the help
