After I create a clip with attachMovieClip, I attempt to write a DropShadowFilter to it using the following code:

var shadow:DropShadowFilter = new DropShadowFilter(
               5,            // distance
               45,            // angle
               0x666666,    // color
               75,            // alpha
               10,            // blurX
               10,            // blurY
               100            // strength
           );
myClip.filters = new Array(shadow);

Myth: the strength property of DropShadowFilter takes a value from 0 to 100.

Fact: It's actually 0.0 to 1.0. I was trying to apply a 10,000% strength drop shadow.

MYTH BUSTED.
