OK, I'm stumped. Any ideas?

[SINTZ]

I find that with the latest release I can no longer see sprites as I edit them. I can't see where they are to move them into place. The only way is to play the movie while I edit, and even that is very limited as you can't see anything behind it. I'ts imposible to place things you cant see. Any thoughts or am I just doing something wrong.

The sprites are within a sprite but I could see them before. The show icon when editing is unchecked which used to show the sprite in the main scene when you clicked on it.

Thanks in advance
TC

Thanks Roger and Jofta. I broke out the sprites into images and got some of it to display, but I don't think I should have had to break out sprites and groups just to display them on the scene. Maybe it is a bug?

Hung-Hsin, I sent you the original .swi that displays nothing on the scene. Hope you can find whatever it is, I sure couldnt.

In order to improve the rendering speed, Swish2 only displays the 1st frame of the sprite when the sprite is closed. Obviously, the 1st frame of the sprite is empty.
