Hey all, this is my first post here,
i'm not new to flash and actionscript, but completely new to haxe.

Don't know if i get the whole thing right, but my intention is using haxe to produce flash/as animations without having to own flash.

I got me "Professional Haxe and Neko" from Wrox and been testing the code in there, everything worked without problem so far, but when i started to try my own animations i experienced problems:

Creating an swf with a textfield - no problem.
Creating an swf with 2 animated clips - no problem, too.
But when i try to combine both the text will not be displayed. When i trace it, it seems to be there with the assigned text, too.

Been tingeling around with textFormat, embedFont, getnextHighestDepth and so on - no result, the textfield stays undisplayed ...

All i want to produce for now is a very simple intro-animation, with a fading or incoming picture_mc and afterwards some animated text, and i just don't get what i'm doing wrong.

As far as anyone can understand the problem i'd be really happy for any help!

I know, this is probably something really newbish, stupid and simple, but i really don't know how to proceed, so thanks for the patience, and so on :)

Thanks!

There is an example with text embeded here
http://www.haxe.org/byexample/flash/flash9/xmllist

it uses masks and even basic flash 10 3d, haxe is reliable, it sounds like a simple code error, I can post up more relevant examples if I understand more what your doing.
