I am working on a freelance job for a client that is due in the morning. I've wasted several hours trying to figure out what is going on. Here is my predicament:
I have a layer with four masks, as follows -
Text
-- Clip 1
-- Clip 2
-- Clip 3
-- Clip 4
In the document, the clipping works perfectly fine up until frame 153. I did the exact same thing as I did with the previous animation, just with different shapes and timing - and it somehow does not work. It also does not work with the clipping done at frame 235.
Now here is the amazing part: once I publish the flash, NONE of the masking works, and instead solid blue boxes show up that DON'T EVEN EXIST in my .fla document! They appear to be the bounding boxes of my movie clips, which makes NO SENSE at all.
I've tried everything I could think. The worst part is that I have been using Flash CS2, CS3, and CS4 for several years and have never run into any issues using masking.
Please help me if you can, this is very urgent and I may lose the entire project if I can't solve this problem. I'll be checking back frequently....
