Reproduction Steps

Open the place provided, you will see a TextLabel, TextBox, and TextButton. Change the TextTransparency of any of those labels beyond 0.95 (for example, 0.96). You will notice the Text disappears like the value was set to 1.

This also affects TextStrokeTransparency, which is more noticeable.

Actual Behavior

This should be fixed now, the new transparency cutoff is 255/256 which is slightly over 0.996.
