Hi Steve, Thanks, that makes things pretty clear. I'm still having trouble passing in variables. For example, in the MXML example above I specify a "test" variable.
When I try to access it in the FilterManager constructor, however, the variable is empty (both "test," and "_test"). I must be missing something simple. Any suggestions?
