Setting the alpha of an item lower than 255 leads to text aliasing artefacts when zoomed into the desktop although hardware acceleration is disabled for desktop and item

You would expect a clear text with sharp edges as long as hardware acceleration remains disabled.

Example script

getEvent().getScreen().getCurrentDesktop().getItemByName(“item”).getProperties().edit().setInteger(“i.alpha”,254).commit();

A script executed after desktop items have been removed throws nullpointer exception.

_____________

var items = getEvent().getScreen().getCurrentDesktop().getAllItems();

var l_item;

var d =getEvent().getScreen().getCurrentDesktop();

for(var i=items.length-1;i>=0;i–)

{

l_item=items[i];

d.removeItem(l_item);

}

getEvent().getScreen().runScript(“event”,null)

___________

The script “event” only displays an android toast message.

BTW: the desktop consists of items created by script. Executing the same script on the default desktop works.
