Runtime bitmap caching is not reccomended for animation. It's trying
to cache every step in your animation sequence. You probably
experienced a frame or two not fully loading before it was trying to
load the next frames in the sequence. Thus it dissapeared.
That's more of an educated guess though, so not 100% on it.

Hello. :)
I've run into a strange, transient rendering error:
The Flash movie in question contains a MovieClip which has a
gradient in it,
going from fully transparent to fully opaque black. At run time it
gets
moved and rotated over top of an image file which is also loaded at
run
time, so that there is a black faded edge to the image where it goes
under
the gradient.
This worked fine, except that every dozen or so times that the page
loaded
the gradient MovieClip would fail to appear. I've done tests to
trace out
it's x, y, rotation and visible properties and there was no difference
between page loads when the gradient was visible and page loads
where it
failed to appear.
I had thought it was a problem with a vector transparent gradient
rendering
in a Flash movie which has wmode set to transparent, so I replaced the
vector gradient with a PNG file, but during additional testing it
broke in
the same way.
I wasn't quite sure what to try next so, experimenting, I tried
turning off
"Use runtime bitmap caching" on that MovieClip, and that appears to
have
fixed it.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
