Hello, I have a 'multinode' director project that is giving me
a really weird 'updatestage' problem.

there is an interface with many elements attached on it, each of them
have an specific 'hint'. There is also a text cast member on the
navigation
bar called "hinttext" that actually shows the 'hint text'.

on the interface elemets, there is a behavior with the following code:

on mouseenter me
   set (member "hinttext").text = ""&myhint
end 

on mouseleave me
   set (member "hinttext").text = "  "
end 

it has been working fine for the last 13 months of development, BUT:

in the last weeks, some of the project 'nodes' or DIR files, are not
working fine..

when the mousepointer is over the element the 'hinttext' does not
change. so
I used the messagewindow to 'debug' this problem.



PS: the movie is looping framing 2 at this moment:

example 1 ==> normal operation

-- message window

m = member "hinttext"

m.text = "Teste2"
 --->> the thext "Teste2" appears on the screen



example 2 ==> problem

-- message window

m = member "hinttext"

m.text = "Teste2"
 --->> nothing happens, the text on the stage looks empty

m.text = "teste666"
 --->> nothing happens, the text on the stage looks empty

put m.text
-- "teste666"
 ---->> OOPS!!, the text cast member has been updated, but i can see no 
change on the stage, What the heck is it????


go to frame 1
 ---->> the text 'teste666' appears on the screen where this castmember
is located!!





this problem is making me go nuts, the CD Rom has 131 'nodes' or DIR's. 
this problem is spreading like a virus and I don't know how to fix it!!!
I've tried updating, even on other computer and NOTHING changes...
does anyone have an Idea of what is it, or how to fix it??




Thanks for your attention
