You also have the option of nulling out the text on screen when you don't want to see it.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Sinning Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 10:24 AM To: Flash Coders Subject: [Flashcoders] keeping dynamic text persistent during animation This isn't actually a coding problem, but here it goes: I'm working with AS2 in CS3. During an animation, there is some dynamic text that needs to be hidden and revealed. I have one continuous layer of text with just the initial keyframe. The font is embedded. If I put the text layer under a mask in order to hide/reveal it depending on the location on the timeline, when the playback head goes crosses the hide/reveal threshold the value of the dynamic text reverts to the value setup on the timeline. Is there a way to do this _without_ AS? I want to keep the animation open for the designer.
