How Pixel Perfectness Drove Me Mad
I’m always overly obsessed when it comes to placement of text in Flash IDE. If the font is a pixel font, and it does not lie exactly on whole numbers in the x and y axis, then the font will appear blurred. From this habit that I had in handling pixel fonts, it soon spread to all objects that I had on the stage; I would want *everything* to be lying perfectly on whole numbers in both axis.
As you might have guessed, this pixel perfect habit of mine drove me rather mad whenever the rest of the team did not bother about it. I could easily spend hours just perfecting the coordinates. Yes, it’s highly possible more of a disease than a habit. *loL~*
Anyway, as I was playing around Flash IDE today, I found the cure! Snap to Pixels! Why haven’t I explored this in all my years with Flash?!
So if you are suffering from pixelperfectitis as well, here’s your medication.
