just dug into the AS3 classes and it by default fromX/fromY has a default value of 4 and in the BlurInstanceClass it doesn't save the current blurX/BlurY values. I could create an event that listens for the update, the only time the value are sent, but then that adds extra overhead for each update.
Instead what I'll do is call a function to iterate the filters list, grab blurX/blurY. Just wished they would have exposed a blurX and blurY prop on the Blur the wiring is there, just failed to provide a stub. ________________________________ From: Flex Noob <fl3xn...@yahoo.com> To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2008 11:34:01 PM Subject: [flexcoders] how do you blur smoothly between two states? hrmmmmmm, I don't get it Say I have this on rollover: <mx:Blur id="blur" duration="1000" blurXTo="10" blurYTo="10" blurXFrom="0" blurYFrom="0" target="{this} "/> and this on roll out: <mx:Blur id="unblur" duration="1000" blurXTo="0" blurYTo="0" blurXFrom="10" blurYFrom="10" target="{this} "/> works, cool, rock on. however if I mouse off at say 500ms the blur JUMPs to the to value and then works it way back. kind of sucks. I've tried ommiting blurfrom or setting the value to *, "" and even blurXFrom="{ blur.blurXFrom} " blurYFrom="{ blur.blurYFrom} "but no dice. what gives?
