Maelstrom BlenMode still working

Thursday, July 28th, 2005

There were some surprised people what’s wrong with new version of Flash 8 beta player 8.0.0.447, because blendMode function stop working. There is nothing wrong, just another way of setting blendNode to movieclip:
Instead of
mc.blendMode = MovieClip.BlendModeType.ADD;
now use
mc.blendMode = “add”;

You could have assigned the blendmode like that in the previous release as well, but common practice would be to have a static field holding the value. I’m sure they removed that static field to increase performance. One less lookup!

The TextField’s antiAliasType property now works in the same way:

myTextField.antiAliasType = “normal”;
myTextField.antiAliasType = “advanced”;
