Constant

public static const ADVANCED:String = "advanced"

Language Version:

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.

Language Version:

ActionScript 3.0

Runtime Versions:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.0

Sets anti-aliasing to the anti-aliasing that is used in Flash Player 7 and earlier. This setting is recommended for applications that do not have a lot of text. This constant is used for the antiAliasType property in the TextField class. Use the syntax AntiAliasType.NORMAL.
