Thanks Paul, Yes, I noticed, with help of Meinte that I had the wrong idea. I am trying to understand the hiarchy of it all and what effects what. So I am very glad with all the comment I get from the list!

Maybe you should switch to Sprites. I'm afraid that you are completely wrong there.

I suspect it's more to do with setting the height and width properties before adding the object to the display list.
