I'm tweening a mc that contains a dynamic text box (font embedded) by using the Tween class to resize and reposition it. Unfortunately, each step in the tween reflows the text slightly, as if it's being kerned randomly each step of the way. I've tried using cacheAsBitmap=true on the mc and on the text box within it, but that hasn't helped. Does anyone have any tips on how to prevent this slight text reflow from happening?
You probably have "Anti-alias for readability" turned on on the textfield. Which is great but make glyph hinting and kerning work in a less than optimal way when moving. If that's the case, set it to "Anti-alias for animation" which is less sharp (?) but a much smoother way of calculating glyph position.
If that doesn't work, you have to tween the position of the textfield by rounded values only, either by doing that when updating its properties, or by capturing a copy of it as bitmapdata prior to moving (adding a dummy filter to it might work just fine for this).
