If you use integers to set the property everything runs fine:


Set Property ("/segundos", Rotation) = int(6*tiempo)


If you use decimal numbers the "magic resizing" appears again


Set Property ("/segundos", Rotation) = 6*tiempo


If you saw my movie at http://members.xoom.com/_XOOM/morrosco/timer.html you

will see that one of the movie clip that rotates works fine (integer) and

the other one shows the bug (decimal numbers)..
