lingo-l scaling 32bit bitmap grief

hi, I'm getting aliasing/pixelation problems scaling down 32 bit+alpha graphics on dark backgrounds using ratio based sprite(x).width/height and sprite(x).rect = rect(sprite(x).rect[1] + (ratioH /2) , sprite(x).rect[2] - (ratioV /2), sprite(x).rect[3] - (ratioH /2), sprite(x).rect[4] -

Re: lingo-l Theory: Multiple instances of a DXR
