Pixels difficult to see in the new flash player.

On the most viewed project ever, in the flash player the one pixel key is invisible.
In some projects which use pen the one pixel is invisible.

This is a problem, but the ST will probably say something like this:

Which project is that?  Can you post a link here?

I suspect it might be a result of the anti-aliasing feature - which makes some art look better but may have less-than-desirable results on fine lines.

We can speak for ourselves, thanks.

It's possible that it might be something that we don't want to fix - because it may be a side effect of a feature that we feel will be beneficial to other types of Scratch projects - however we need to look at it carefully first and see what the issue really is.

Re: Pixels difficult to see in the new flash player.

It probably is the antialiasing. I'm not the person, but it's the user AromaRageSt's only project. Antialiasing is nice for some things, but maybe you could limit it to sprites of certain size if it's included at all? And maybe potentially a soft pen and a hard pen, in case these kinds of results break a project.

Thanks!  I did some work isolating this issue on this project over here.  It does seem that the single-pixel sprite can not be clicked on - at that particular location anyway.  I sent my results on to the development team and, while they didn't promise they would fix it, they said they would look at it. 

Maybe somebody should just remix the project with slightly larger target sprites?
