Yeah, that's the problem. I can't find an interface as a guide to designing the class and even though I can extend from BitmapFilter there isn't any information to be had.
I believe that the classes have a specific structure and the DisplayObject calls certain functions in the same manner that methods like createChildren() or updateDisplayList() is called, but I can't find any info. So I was hoping that someone with more knowledge about the internals of those classes would step forward, should I even hope for a Flex engineer to see this? -Trey JesterXL wrote: > Ohhh, you want to actually have it be a filter vs. using another one.
