I use new TextField and addChild to create a new text stuff but the fonts are originally “anti-alias”… Though it’s reasonable, I have to use some “bitmap” fonts in this project.

Can I just specify the textField instance to something like :

my\_txt.antiAlias = false; (This is just a trope)

Thanks in advance!
