ADVANCED

Constant
public static const ADVANCED:String = "advanced"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.0

Sets anti-aliasing to advanced anti-aliasing. Advanced anti-aliasing allows font faces to be rendered at very high quality at small sizes. It is best used with applications that have a lot of small text. Advanced anti-aliasing is not recommended for very large fonts (larger than 48 points). This constant is used for the antiAliasType property in the TextField class. Use the syntax AntiAliasType.ADVANCED.
