FLASH: Gradual Alpha or Masking?

[Simon Webster]

Hi all, 


I'm trying to make a 3D block 'appear' as though it's rising out of a floor,

the floor itself is an imported .gif which is quite complex. Is there some

way of changing the alpha settings of part of the block gradually so that it

appears to be rising, or should I be using masking or something else for

this???


Whichever way could you guys and gals point me in the right

direction...pleeeze, all comments and advice greatly appreciated...
