strength (GradientBevelFilter.strength property)

public strength : Number

The strength of the imprint or spread. The higher the value, the more color is imprinted and the stronger the contrast between the bevel and the background. Valid values are 0 to 255. A value of 0 means that the filter is not applied. The default value is 1.

Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 8

Example

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

import flash.filters.GradientBevelFilter;

var mc:MovieClip = setUpFilter("strengthExample");
mc.onRelease = function() {
    var arr:Array = this.filters;
    arr[0].strength = 1;
    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;
}
