Re: FLASH: lots of text = s l o w : (

[Yoshi Melrose]

I'm experiencing the same problems as well. is there any type of workaround

on this? I was imagining if you broke up the text and set them in as

symbols, and instead of tweening, you can do the animation manually. Though

this would be a painstakingly long process. Anyone have any ideas on that?
