Canvas and filters...

[niklasinla]

Hi there!

I've tried to add a glowfilter to the canvas but the scroller stops working - the filter is added though.
Scroller works with mousewheel but not with the mouse the "normal way".

I've setup the canvas and that works. I'm calling it canvas then I try to add this filtercode:

Code: Select all

var myGlow:GlowFilter = new GlowFilter();
myGlow.color = 0x000000;
myGlow.blurX = 2;
myGlow.blurY = 2;
canvas.filters = [myGlow];

Is there some sort of workaround or is this just not possible?

Best, Nikas

hmm I've never tried I think.

Did you try to apply the filter to "canvas.container" ?
Or did you try to put the canvas in another Sprite and apply the filter on it?

Hi Romu!

Thanks for your fast answer.
Applying it to canvas.container applies it to the text which might be what you want is some cases...
So I wrapped it in a sprite & that works perfectly.
Duh - I should have thought about that.

Thanks again...
