First flash project. All looks great in preview. I've created a text fade out by converting the white text to a movie clip symbol. In one keyframe the text is alpha 100%. Several frames later I've created another keyframe with alpha set to 0%. I've added a motion tween between the 2 keyframes.
The SWF looks good when I pan it on the timeline, however, when I test it or publish it. The text just stays alpha 100%.
Your assistance is appreciated. Kristi |

First let me just point out that if text is not Alpha at all, you don't need to set it to 100%, you just set the side where the 0% is, or whatever number lower than 100%. 100% means no alpha so it's not required to specify that at all.
Secondly, my guess is that you set the text to DYNAMIC not STATIC. Dynamic text can fade in authoring but will fail upon export. In fact try to Export Preview movie all the time, this is the only reliable method to find out whether it's all functioning properly. Preview while authoring it's never reliable.
