Ah, okay. The yes: resetting the matrix seems to be the way to workaround this problem (which must be what we’re doing internally, as of Flex 4).

In the original example, if the only thing you did was to change the z location, and then you reset it to 0, then the text should not be blurry any longer (we recognize that the object no longer needs a 3D transform and just do the right 2D thing instead). I suspect that you are setting more 3D properties than simply the z property (like rotationX, rotationY, etc.), so even though you’re zeroing-out the ‘z’ property, that’s not enough to take the object out of 3D and put it on the 2D plane again. Figure out the other 3D properties that you’re tweaking (just take a look at the matrix when it’s back in the state where you think it should be 2D) and reset the ones that are still in 3D. Chet.

However after I tween my object to z=0, the text looks blurry after the animation has stopped. Is there a way to make the text look sharp: fontAntiAliasType="advanced" I've tried but that gives not-passable results. Thanks, Patrick
