When specifying an embedded font, the fontFamily property should only contain a single name; it cannot use a comma-delimited list of multiple font names. So I changed my code as follows: public function blurClient():void { trace('blurClient'); var client:TextField = new TextField(); this.addChild(client); var clientString:String = 'Joel Holt'; client.text = clientString; client.embedFonts = true; client.x = 100; client.y = 100; client.height = 20; client.width = 200; var clientFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); clientFont:fontFamily = 'Arial'; clientFormat.color = 0xffffff; clientFormat.size = 20; clientFormat.font = 'Arial'; client.defaultTextFormat = clientFormat; TweenMax.to(client, 1, {blurFilter:{blurX:20}}).reverse(); } and got the complaint that there is no such thing as "fontFamily".

David Hunter asked about the bgcolor. It's black Jared Stanley suggested another list and it's archives. I will plumb them. Thank you all and I await further input. beno _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
