Curious Question

[bwilch]

I've made some buttons using the stage. Made them symbols and am using 2 states. "Up/Over" On Over, all it does is add a filter of a gradient glow to the text. For some reason though, it appears the text sifts on random buttons in this menu. I've looked at the x/y cord and size of the text in both the up and over state. I've even removed the keyframe in the over, reinserted it and reapplied the filter and randomly it seems to either work or not.

I'm baffled. Has anyone else seen this or know of an easy way to resolve this as an issue? Thanks!

You can always use a script to apply GradientGlowFilter to your text on rollover. Then your text will not move.

Yeah, I was thinking of that, just thought it odd that using the interface it would "shift" the text and was just wondering if I was the only strange one.

Is your text positioned at integer point?

Not sure what you mean by an integer point. I checked the x/y and the height and width of all of the text and it remained the same. Also, when I say it was on random buttons, I have probably 50 buttons like this and of those 50, 10 are doing the "shift".

I meant (10, 20) instead of (10.2, 20.47)

Hmmm, now that I think of it, they may be on #.# Would that actually make the difference even though both states are on the exact same #.#?

 

[kennethkawamoto]

It would.
