In this example we embed a font (the awesome “Base 02″ PC TrueType font (TTF) from http://www.stereo-type.net/), animate it using the Zoom effect and the Elastic.easeOut easing method. We also set the rotation
and alpha
properties (which you can’t do with non-embedded fonts), and we set the fontAntiAliasType
to “advanced” to give the font a cleaner look. Finally we use the effectEnd
event to loop the animation.
