Applying Text Effects to Dynamic Text fields causes text to center to stage

Initial text x position: 352.05

After effect: 0

//Code:

import com.jumpeye.Events.FLASHEFFEvents;
import com.jumpeye.flashEff2.text.scramble.FETScramble;

var myEffect:FlashEff2Code= new FlashEff2Code();
myEffect.addEventListener(FLASHEFFEvents.TRANSITION_END, testX);

trace(text1.x);//outputs 352.05

var feText1:FETScramble = new FETScramble();
addChild(myEffect);

myEffect.showTransition=feText1;
myEffect.target= text1;

function testX(ev:FLASHEFFEvents):void{
trace(text1.x);//outputs 0
}
//END CODE

I've tried applying the recommended text settings... why is it repositioning to center????

freeclear,

The target is placed into the FlasHEff2 container during the animation, that's why the textfield's X position is different after the animation has started. Actually the flasheff2 container will be positioned to the initial position of the textfield.
