Pretty simple premise here. I have text, embedded font with its antialias set to readability. I’d put it for animation but it looks like garbage. Whether or not I enable runtime bitmap caching on its host movieclip or not, when I alpha tween the text it “pops”.

I believe this is Flash removing its aliasing during the animation and when the tween is done, adding the aliasing. Is there anything I can do to force Flash to tween the aliased text without removing the aliasing? It doesn’t “pop” when I have it set to antialias for animation…

Any tips or hints are welcome. Thanks in advance.
