Have you ever tried to mask a blurred movieclip? If the mask is made manually and set on stage it works ok, if we use:

mc.mask = mask;

it seems like the mask is also blurred and it doesn’t work as expected! Do you have any idea on how to solve this? I would be very grateful if you do! 🙂

Best regards!
