fonts are cached as bitmap when they get turned in 3d space, same as when applying filters, you can;t turn that off. One last thing to try is to tween with rounded values only, but I'm quite sure that wont make a difference, I think any font moved or turned in 3d space gets a bit 'blurry'. On

My last ditch effort with fussy type, it to make a dummy bitmap copy of the sprite (bitmapdata.draw(dispObj)) and use that for the animation times. Switch back to the original when you need selections/links to work...Not the most elegant, but it should work... 2008/11/17 Meinte van't Kruis [EMAIL

Yes, it's possible. The FileReference object now allows you to access the contents of a file uploaded by the user directly. You can manipulate it and pop-up a save dialog, again with FileReference (but the action has to be initiated by the user, such as a button click), and save the modified file

I realize my reply doesn't really answer you question (you were asking about displaying the image rather than downloading it back), but I think it must be also possible. You can access to the file raw data as a ByteArray, but you still have to convert that into a bitmap (or bitmapdata first?).
