FLASH: AS Alpha Control

[Russell E. Unger]

Folks...


Here's my AS:


setProperty ("/F1", _alpha, current_alpha);

current_alpha = current_alpha-4;



This is within an MC that sits on the main timeline.  Is this syntax

correct?


The scenario is as such:

Scene plays, gets to this point, this AS fades out a specific piece in a 4

step increment, controlled by a separate MC.


For whatever reason, however, it's not working and I'm looking for a bit of

insight...I'd like at least one hour of sleep tonigt!


Thanks,


Russ
