text does not fade-out completely

[Bighead]

When viewing my swf on the web the text does not seem to fade out completely. Example can be seen here:

I have viewd this on two identical monitors set with a 16 bit high color preference.

Are there any steps that I can take when creating the orginal document in swish to prevent this from happening?

Thanks for any help.

bighead,
welcome to the forum. Try putting a 'hide' effect in the frame where you don't want your object to be seen anymore.

Hello Bighead, sorry but I can`t see that anything that is wrong on your site. I visited it with two different computers (Mac and PC) and everythink seems to be correct. Greetings from Germany, harald-hans

Hi Bighead,
This is a problem on some monitors is you do not put the hide effect after fade out as David suggested.

Thanks for all your help. The hide effect works great.

Users of 16-bit color monitors will see the faded object. Applying HIDE will fix this or animating it off the stage will work too. 24/32-bit color monitors don't exibit this problem.

When you make a symbol in flash, you have to make sure the text (click and select it with the type tool) is "static text" and not "dynamic text." It will preview if you scub through it right, but when you test movie the text will not fade if it's dynamic text.

I hope this helps,
