When I create a dynamic text field, I try to make a tween on the timeline that fades it. It won't work, I even tried converting it to a movie and then setting an alpha value to the movie but this won't work either. Using code, myText.alpha = .5; does not work either. I'm at a loss!

What I'm trying to achieve is dynamic buttons that I can assign values to using AS3 that fade in and out. The button will fade, the text field will not.

Thanks in advance.

Resolved: Just found out I had to embed the fonts!

Hi, I have a similar problem concerning a static text. The text is inside a button which is inside a movie clip and that is supposed to fade. But the alpha of the text doesn't change. I thought that static text has no need of embedding, is there another solution apart from changing it to dynamic text and embedding the font?
