Hello again,

I am having a rather odd issue with scaling down large images. When scaled down quite a bit, the images’ right most edge of pixels stretches across the area that should just be the image. All I am doing, is loading an image using the loader class, and scaling it down as a thumbnail. One very odd thing about this issue, is that if I move the parent object x position to the left, it starts to correct itself. Here are 3 images to show you what I am experiencing.

This same issue is occurring another place in my app as well!

Thanks for any help you can offer. This is AS3 Flash CS4
