Rotation:

i think the movieclip will look fine if you rotate it around whole number ... not a floating point number ...
e.g. rotate it around 45 degrees not 45.6 degrees ...

I am rotatating movieclip through action script code, using integer number (5, 10, 12, -5, -8)
mc._rotation = 10;
When I rotate movie clip inside flash program, before exported swf it looks distorted as well as exported swf
If you are exporting for Flash 8 there is an omission in the flash player that makes scaled or rotated images that is loaded externally look distorted.
To work around that you need to make them into a bitmap object with smoothing applied.
Here is some example code how to do that (from:http://www.kaouranti
import flash.display.*;
function loadBitmapSmoothed(url:Str
// Create a movie clip which will contain our
// unsmoothed bitmap
var bmc:MovieClip = target.createEmptyMovieCli
"bmc",
target.getNextHighestDepth
// Create a listener which will notify us when
// the bitmap loaded successfully
var listener:Object = new Object();
// Track the target
listener.tmc = target;
// If the bitmap loaded successfully we redraw the
// movie into a BitmapData object and then attach
// that BitmapData to the target movie clip with
// the smoothing flag turned on.
listener.onLoadInit = function(mc:MovieClip) {
mc._visible = false;
var bitmap:BitmapData = new BitmapData(
mc._width,
mc._height,
true);
this.tmc.attachBitmap(
bitmap,
this.tmc.getNextHighestDep
"auto",
true);
bitmap.draw(mc);
};
// Do it, load the bitmap now
var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
loader.addListener(listene
loader.loadClip(url, bmc);
}
createEmptyMovieClip("myMC
loadBitmapSmoothed("mypic.
When I try your .fla the text is not distorted, but the image is.
I thought you said the image is dynamically loaded, but in the example .fla it is not.
In that case you can simply set the image to smoothing by right clicking on the image in the library and selecting "properties" and then check the "allow smoothing"
