Re: [flasher] Wierd Text thing

Don't worry, I've worked it out. And in case anyone wants to know, you can't

have a device font text field in a masked layer. Flash can't hide and unhide

system text. Oh well, workaround time!

Subject: [flasher] Wierd Text thing



Hi all,


I'm having a little trouble with a couple of simple Static text fields (in

Arial font). They are in an MC and appear at a certain frame. I want them to

appear as device fonts. However, whenever I turn device font on the text

becomes invisible when I publish (can see them fine when authoring). If I

leave it off, the text is there but all antialiased which is what I don't

want. I've tried setting them to dynamic text, no joy. I have a dynamic text

field on the main timeline which appears fine.


Any ideas?


Dirk
