Yes that would work but the property you want is movieClip._alpha 0 = invisible, 100 = visible.

I am cycling over that array and making the text come out and also move. The thing I now want is to be able to fade it in and out. The problem is that I cannot figure out how (in actionscript) to do this. The text will change regularly, so saying something like "make a graphic of the text" isn't going to help. Any ideas? I'm just banging my head against a brick wall!
