The issue is this......

Viewed on a PC with 16bit colour.....

When using dynamic text boxes with "anti-alias for readability" turned on
(Flash 8), the background of the textbox shows like a 5% white alpha when used
on a dark background.

The problem is not seen when the screen is set to 32bit, or on a mac at 16bit
or 32bit colour.

Any ideas? Very frustrating bug.......
