I'm having a litle trouble understanding how effects work. Apparently when you play() an effect, it is asynchronous, but I can't seem to wrap my head around a solution.
I have a Timer set up. Each time it fires, I want to do the following: 1) Fade the Label to alpha=0.0 2) Change the Label text 3) Fade to alpha=1.0 So I define one mx:Fade to fade in and one to fade out. Then in my timer handler I try: fadeOut.play([salesTxt], true); salesTxt.text = cf.format(tickerData[current].value); fadeIn.play([salesTxt], true); ...but the text just "pops" to alpha 0.0 and then fades in. Could someone explain why this happens and what would be a good way to accomplish this?
