I am having a major problem creating a rectangle with acceptable rounded corners. The rectangle needs to be 100 x 15 px with a 2 pt stroke. The corner radius can be 1 or 2 px …1 would be perfect, but 2 is OK. I can make it look decent if I make the rectangle 14px or 16px high, but not 15. It just looks like crap. I tried using Illustrator to create the rectangle and of course Illustrator makes a next to perfect object, but when I either import the object as a swf or copy and paste the object into flash, the corners get all messed up! I am at a loss here. I realize Flash isnt the greatest drawing tool in the world, but this shouldn’t be an issue. An issue it is, because I am working from a clients comp which must be exact.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated… thanks!
