[Flashcoders] Registration Point of Clips (Scale 9)

2008-12-07 Thread SJF
Anyone have a preference for the registration point of clips created in flash that are accessed dynamically? Do you prefer Top-Left or Center alignment for your MovieClips that are Scale-9 enabled and accessed programmatically. Also, what about Text Fields within these Clips. Anyone have an
