I think this is more to do with cacheAsBitmap rather than “layer” blendMode, yes?
this is why zgub’s having problems with white.

Do you have to assign this value only once (let’s say at the time of creating the container’s content) or everytime tween has to be shown?

Problem appears when the fadein/out is supposed to take place, showing transparent hole where the bitmap is supposed to be. Then, it suddenly appears when the alpha value reaches 100%.

Oh, thanks for sharing! I was always wondering how to achieve that mode… and it was just simply Layer blend mode. I should have been read the manual in the first place

BlendMode.LAYER…

当为包含子对象的DisplayObject或MovieClip设置alpha值的时候，默认是会把所有子对象都设置透明再叠加在一起，如中图的情况。如果把层混合模式设置为： BlendMode.LAYER ，Flash会认为该对象只有一….

There seemed to be a problem with the word press plugin I am using to embed the flash. Since I am using the title of the page as the url to this particular page the path to the flash file was different than on the home page. I seem to have it fixed now.

Thank you for pointing it out.
