blurY (GradientBevelFilter.blurY property)

The amount of vertical blur. Valid values are 0 to 255. A blur of 1 or less means that the original image is copied as is. The default value is 4. Values that are a power of 2 (such as 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32) are optimized to render more quickly than other values.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to set the blurY property on an existing object.

import flash.filters.GradientBevelFilter;

var mc:MovieClip = setUpFilter("blurYExample");
mc.onRelease = function() {
    var arr:Array = this.filters;
    arr[0].blurY = 16;
    this.filters = arr;
}

function setUpFilter(name:String):MovieClip {
    var art:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(name, this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var w:Number = 150;
    var h:Number = 150;
    art.beginFill(0xCCCCCC);
    art.lineTo(w, 0);
    art.lineTo(w, h);
    art.lineTo(0, h);
    art.lineTo(0, 0);

    var colors:Array = [0xFFFFFF, 0xCCCCCC, 0x000000];
    var alphas:Array = [1, 0, 1];
    var ratios:Array = [0, 128, 255];
    var filter:GradientBevelFilter = new GradientBevelFilter(5, 225, colors, alphas, ratios, 5, 5, 5, 3, "inner", false);

    art.filters = new Array(filter);
    return art;
}
