[flexcoders] Alpha not fading lable.

[Ian Skinner]

Am I attempting to use the alpha property incorrectly?

<mx:Label alpha=".1"
   text="{draws.currentItem.R_MOB_MNAME}"
 
toolTip="{draws.currentItem.R_MDL_MOBLID}&#13;{draws.currentItem.R_MOB_MNAME}&#13;AM:
 
{draws.currentItem.R_RCT_NAME}"
   width="100%" minWidth="0"
   truncateToFit="true"/>

I expected this to produce an almost invisible text.  Nothing changed.
