I'm trying to reflect some text in Flash using AS2 with readibility set to true, the problem is that when it is flipped it reverts to 'render for animation' this would be fine as it is tinted etc. and not really intended for reading anyway so doesn't need to be sharp... the problem I have is the kerning is then different to the text it is reflecting and ends up with differing line wraps
...anyone know if there is a simple way around this?

are you masking the reflected text in order for it to fade out?
if so you won't be able to have antialiased for reading... it MUST be for animation. and make sure bitmap caching is on.

ta, why does 'bitmap caching' need to be on...
by the way it doesn't render as readibility mode even when not masked

Put down that mouse and step away from the reflections!
Not sure i fully understand you but cant you just break the text?
Can you show us the swf?

it has to be dynamic text... I'm doing it to show the text can scroll, i.e it is a functional thing as much as a stylistic thing

ahh, should have known it was dynamic text. I'm not sure how you could get around the text quirks then. :/
Good luck though. Let us know if you find a valid solution.
