objectToBeMasked.mask = maskObject;
Ok, simple… but I can SEE the maskObject unless I set its alpha to 0 and then it doesn’t let clicks through to objectToBeMasked
And every single tutorial that I’ve seen fails to mention this and how to solve it, as if it should be obvious.
How do I mask objects through AS3 so that the masks act like masks act like the ones added in the IDE?
You shouldn’t see the mask. Probably the mask and the masked object are not on the stage at the time you are trying to apply the mask.
Can you pass on some code here?
