I was just working on this same problem today!

Hi,

I am incrementing my variable by 0.1 and dispalying it in a Dynamic text box.

But when it goes from like 4.9 to 5.0 it just shows 5 and nor 5.0 like I'd like it to. Is there a way to force...

Hi.
I haven't done too much work with LoadMovie before, but I think that since your Movie A is in level 0, it can not be remove, or probably not called twice.

So my thoughts are this...

What happens if you add an object to the array? What length does it show then? 1?

My efforts tell me no. But I have seen some masterful techniques using masks that I must ask the forum(magnifying glass is great). I need to move a mask dynamically, anyone had any success doing...
