hey guys

i want to be able to laod a movie clip [which is just text] and then when i click a button load another movie clip [again, just text] over the top.

the problem i am having is that i cant get rid of the first movie clip when i load the second - meaning i end up with a blur of two peice of text on top of each other.

ive looked at a few different options and none have helped. would anyone have any idea?

This should work:
first_mc._visible = true;
second_mc._visible = false;

button2.onPress = function(){ //brings up the second movieclip
first_mc._visible = false;
second_mc._visible = true;
}

thanks funky.

i ended up just putting the two movie clips into one, and then making each button point to a place on the timeline.

cheers!
