nope. thanks both of you, maybe I am mad then. I've always had my suspicions ;)
I've got an alignment prob and was running this on the root of a one frame movie in flash 8 to see if it might be this bit of code and I only see 90% of the bottom and right of the clip on the stage, only one rounded corner on the bottom right is visible the rest is cropped by the bounds of the movie at the top and the left! hmmmm. weirdness. thanks again! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alias Sent: 03 February 2006 16:14 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] 0,0???? Looks fine to me. Is your code nested inside another clip?
