Mask Transparency solutions..

[basepointdesignz]

Hi, I'm trying to work something out and need a helpful hint or a way round what I'm trying to do.

I would like to make a mask over a scrollable dynamic textbox, so when the text scrolls the text at the top or bottom seems to fade out, like in some film or TV show credits. Is there a way I can accomplish this?

I know that mask layers don't recognise transparency and also, if I put a mask over the text box, it masks the whole text when I preview it but if I lock the mask layer, in editing mode, it shows if correctly masked..

Please, any ideas on a solution?

Cheers,
