and it pissing me off… :crazy:

these are dynamic textfields, and everything is tweened from alpha 0 to 1 at inital load, and this screenshot is taken like one second before second one;  
look at the first picture, the text is all nice and crisp:

now look at the second one, when it tweens to alpha 1, it looks like there is a “second pass” of text over the inital one it looks like it doubled itself:

the textfields are all positioned at the whole numbers, and font is embedded, and i have seen this somewhere before but i cant seem to remember why is this happening…
