Filtering display objects
Example: Combining basic filters
Flash Player 9 and later, Adobe AIR 1.0 and later
The following code example uses several basic filters, combined with a Timer for creating repeating actions, to create
an animated traffic light simulation.
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.filters.BitmapFilterQuality;
import flash.filters.BitmapFilterType;
import flash.filters.DropShadowFilter;
import flash.filters.GlowFilter;
import flash.filters.GradientBevelFilter;
import flash.utils.Timer;
var count:Number = 1;
var distance:Number = 8;
var angleInDegrees:Number = 225; // opposite of 45 degrees
var colors:Array = [0xFFFFCC, 0xFEFE78, 0x8F8E01];
var alphas:Array = [1, 0, 1];
var ratios:Array = [0, 128, 255];
var blurX:Number = 8;
var blurY:Number = 8;
var strength:Number = 1;
var quality:Number = BitmapFilterQuality.HIGH;
var type:String = BitmapFilterType.INNER;
var knockout:Boolean = false;
// Draw the rectangle background for the traffic light.
var box:Shape = new Shape();
box.graphics.lineStyle();
box.graphics.beginFill(0xFEFE78);
box.graphics.drawRect(100, 50, 90, 200);
box.graphics.endFill();
// Draw the 3 circles for the three lights.
var stopLight:Shape = new Shape();
stopLight.graphics.lineStyle();
stopLight.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
stopLight.graphics.drawCircle(145,90,25);
stopLight.graphics.endFill();
var cautionLight:Shape = new Shape();
cautionLight.graphics.lineStyle();
cautionLight.graphics.beginFill(0xFF9900);
cautionLight.graphics.drawCircle(145,150,25);
cautionLight.graphics.endFill();
var goLight:Shape = new Shape();
goLight.graphics.lineStyle();
goLight.graphics.beginFill(0x00CC00);
goLight.graphics.drawCircle(145,210,25);
goLight.graphics.endFill();
// Add the graphics to the display list.
addChild(box);
