How come my text shifts position when I change its forecolor in Lingo?

The problem is due to the way anti-aliasing and kerning works. Your text may be anti-aliased to a different position if the colour of it changes with respect to the background. This is most apparent when you have a paragraph of text and you are changint the colour of one of the words in Lingo.

The fix is to turn OFF both anti-aliasing and kerning on the text member.
