[Swftools-common] alpha problem

[Jacek Brzeski]

Hey,

I'm working on one animation of a company logo and I came across some 
strange problem.
I want to make a shape coming in to the scene from left side (starting 
with alpha=0%), quickly getting alpha=100% and then move to right 
position (in the middle of the picture).

When I'm setting alpha=100% in .frame=5 it only reaches about 50% and 
stays that way. When first .change tag is in .frame 10 - it's better.

It's pretty strange, so take a glance at example:

In these two animations the only thing changed is # of frame to set 
alpha=100%...

BTW - using debian sarge, swf tools 0.7.0;

Help me out, thanks!
