Have you tried manually placing your component on the stage in the first frame and then deleting it?

If I try to instantiate it during runtime with - bubble_mc = createClassObject(Bubble, 'bubble_mc', 10, { _width: 80, _x: 20, _y: 20 } ); trace(bubble_mc + ': ' + bubble_mc.bgcolor); then nothing is visible on the stage and trace() prints: null: undefined I've searched numerous web pages, can't find what is wrong here. Any hints please? And my actual problem is that I have 2 own components: I want to display that comics-like Bubble chat component inside (on top of) another own component representing a player ( please see User.* in http://preferans.de/flash/ and click the cards list on the right to update the text in bubble_mc ) private function createChildren():Void { ... createClassObject(Loader, 'avatar_ldr', depth++, {contentPath: 'Unknown'}); createClassObject(Bubble, 'bubble_mc', depth++, {bgcolor: 0xFF0000}); } The problem is that while bubble_mc is displayed, it isn't drawn correctly. I see the text, but the background color isn't solid. I can't find why is this happening. Adding an explicit bubble_mc.draw() inside the player component: private function draw():Void { super.draw(); bubble_mc.draw(); } doesn't help. Any suggestions are very welcome Regards Alex _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
