You could create a bitmap using BitmapData.draw. Add that to your display list, set cacheAsBitmap to true and things should run smootly. Not sure if it works, but it is just another suggestion. Greetz Erik On 5/22/08, Vayu Robins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hej. > > I am wondering if there i

Also, while I don't believe it to be the case here but worth mentioning: if you have a font antialiasing set towards "readability" or a custom setting with high sharpness, there's more pixel snapping which can make the text look like it's not moving smoothly. On Thu, May 22, 2008 at 7:56 AM, Cedr

Hi, I think it's partly due to an issue with the rendering / player rather than just your code. Scrolling text always seems to look jerky as text tends to snap to the pixel - unless you say otherwise. You have have an option of upping your frame / animation rate and reducing your incr
