RE: FLASH: bitmap rotation arrggghhh!

[Travis Alber]

thanks to everyone for their responses to my rotate and scale across 

a tween question.


I've found that rotating to exactly 45 or 90 degrees cuts down on the 

bitmap distortion (looks fine in it's rotated state). Scaling is fine 

on the end frame as well (used pngs).


But the tween distorts terribly during rotation...so i've recommended 

we don't rotate any of em.


cest la vie, eh?
