Assuming you're doing this as a series of commands rather than just one command, you should try setting the _alpha to 50 to get 50% opacity.  Setting it to .5 will give you .5% opacity, basically making it almost invisible.


Duplicate Movie Clip ("/bfly", "bfly2", 50)

Set Property ("bfly2", Alpha) = 50

Set Property ("bfly2", X Scale) = 50

Set Property ("bfly2", Y Scale) = 50
