Post by meltedtoons »

TOTALLY agree - :!: :!: :!: :!:
y e s.......

If I thought it would make a difference I would post and lobby all over.
However.

There are two things at issue - the load time for sure, but also the high point count that text produces. Unless you are significantly animating your text it is better to use a text-image.

Text for me is a really useful graphic element |zzzZ A P!- >>kaPOW<< and I would love to see an improvement.

Someone (I don't remember if he was Mkelley on animatorsforums or Slowtiger here) said that Mike will fix the text tool charge time on a next release. So we only must to wait until a new 6.x

Anyway, text import -just like .ai import- have been improved a lot on AS 6. If you have version 5 and 6, you can make a comparison.
