Odd text blur - fixed with click???

[FusionFactor]

Hey!

I'm working on a chat application. Once a user types a message and hits enter, the message is transferred into a "chat bubble" and the bubble floats up 60 pixels (via TweenMax). Occasionally, the text will blur itself once it's moved. And then it is fixed once I click the text. It's really weird. How can I fix this?

Occasionally, I won't have to click it for it to be normal. That's usually the first "chat bubble".


Any help is appreciated!

Yes, it is. I added the textfield to a movieclip and use TweenMax to tween the mc 60 pixels up. I tried setting the stage's focus to the "chat bubble" and everything.

May be an xy coordinate idiosyncrasy of textfields with bitmap fonts.
ie: set the coords of the textfield to whole numbers.

Good point, [afz]snicklefitz.

Check out the roundProps plugin in TweenLite. Should help you out.

Forgot about that one!

The coordinates were never not whole numbers. But, for some reason, changing the how far I had tweened the MovieClip affected the font. But I'm still not too sure

Either way, problem solved. Thanks guys
