Thanks Danny

I tried the:

sprite(n).visible = false
sprite(n).visible = true

But it doesn't seem to make any difference..

No, this problem is sadly still with us. We did find a number of methods
to 
improve things, but nothing seems to be foolproof. The best thing we
could 
find was
sprite(n).visible = false
sprite(n).visible = true

although ironically this seems to be less effective using the new xtra.
