Stupid question no 2

Hi I am making some buttons that enlarge and then fall back to their original size when you mouse over them. The font used is a pixel font and this blurs when you do the mouse over. Is there anyway you can make them so they dont blur?

any help would be xtremely grateful!!!

this is the code on the movie clips:

onClipEvent (load) {
xlen = 100;
ylen = 100;
xscale = _xscale;
yscale = _yscale;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
x = (x+(xlen-xscale)*0.50)/1.50;
y = (y+(ylen-yscale)*0.50)/1.50;
xscale += x;
yscale += y;
_xscale = xscale;
_yscale = yscale;
}

and on the button inside

on (rollOver) {
xlen = 150;
ylen = 150;
}
on (rollOut) {
xlen = 100;
ylen = 100;
}

=)

To make sure pixel fonts are unblurred, you must place them on equal x and y positions, and be at a size that can be divided by 8. But if you’re moving them or resizing them, this will not be the case, thus blurring your font.

I don’t think you can do something about it. You could try with the alias text option in MX 2004, might work, I don’t know. You could also try breaking the font apart, though I doubt that’ll help. Worth a try though.
