Can anyone tell me why every time I create a dynamic textfield in flash, the text in it always looks so choppy? I’ve tried all anti-alias options from the dropdown in the property inspector and nothing works. This always happens to me. I’ll have dynamic text right next a static textfield and the dynamic text looks horrible while the static looks great. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
