You'll probably notice that at the end of the animation when expanding (or the beginning when collapsing), there's an evil little flicker, like it has to reload the (blue) PNG images. If I remove the masks, though, there is no flicker...so my best guess is that somehow it's the masks' fault.

This is driving me batty - I'd really appreciate any help.

Well I haven't really figured out how to do it cleanly yet, but I have hacked around the flicker. Close enough for now.

I guess I should say how I hacked around it, in case someone comes looking for a solution, like me, and finds nothing.

The issue was an animated mask which forced reloads of other animations in the movie (and maybe itself) when it reached the keyframe at the end of its tweening. I just told the ActionScript handling the animation to not proceed after the frame immediately before the last keyframe, avoiding the issue entirely. I used an if statement with _currentframe < 10. Bit hacky, but I'm so happy to have that flickering gone.
