I am new to flash so please bare with me on this one.

I am trying to create a simply flash movie in Flash 8 where the text fades from black to white. I have created the text then converted it to a movie clip in order that I can create the tween fade effect using the colour - alpha thing.

It all works perfectly in Flash 8 when I am playing the flash movie. But, as soon as I export the movie all I get is the Black text jumping straight to White. . . why is this happening? Any help much appreciated as this is making me very agitated now :( :x

Thanks

Hi flash noob,

I have come across many people asking the same question in the past on other forums about the non-fading flash movie text. 99% of the time it is just because the original text you created before you converted it to a 'symbol' was left as the default text type which is 'dynamic', which does not fade when exported (even though the text does fade when you play the moviein flash 8).
Try creating your text again and before converting it to a movie symbol make sure you change the text type to 'static'. Now when you export the flash movie you should be able to see the text is fading perfectly now. Hope that helps :)
