Good morning, Matt!


Do you happen to have more than one keyframe in your layer with the

"content" movie clip in it?  Could you check to be sure the instance name

(same instance name) is applied to each and every "instance" of that movie

clip?  That is, if you have hit "F6" down the line somewhere, to change

instance color/alpha/whatever and you "think" that it is the final mc that

you need to name (as I did) you will find that you also (or mainly,

only...???) need to name the first occurance of the mc...

One MC is defined with the Instance Name, "content". Inside the other
