This may be a stupid question, but i’ve done a bit of searching and come up with nothing.

I am trying to anti alias text boxes that i have create dynamically. I create the text format, then the text box, then set it’s contents, then apply the format. None of the fonts in these text boxes are aliased…Anyone?
