RE: [flexcoders] Flex & 3d Tweening and best practice/results for Text
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). Thanks, Chet.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex & 3d Tweening and best practice/results for Text
Chet,
The blurry effect doesnt occur any more with sdk4.
The component I wrote uses sdk3.3, which leaves blurry the buttons from the
example code you sent.

That’s not what I’m seeing: in the code below, the rotator effect rotates the button around the Y axis, ending at rotationY==0, at which point the text in the button is no longer blurry: http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"> Are you doing anything with the 3D properties besides setting rotationY?

You don’t necessarily have to reset the 2d matrix – you just have to make sure that all of your 3d properties are set back to the values they would have if the object were again in 2d. 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).
