I’ve noticed this [COLOR=#ff0099] **problem** [/COLOR] from earlier versions of flash. When I break apart some text, Flash sometimes fills in the font incorrectly. For example “O” and “B” will have the holes filled in as well:

Has anyone found a way to prevent this from happening? I used to manually remove the fills letter by letter, but it’s such a chore. :hangover:

Any tips please?

Thanks!
