Re: [Flashcoders] Scaling Filters
Matrix scaling also does the same thing - does not scale Blur/filter properties. I've tried this... var snapshot:BitmapData = new BitmapData(121,88,true,0x); //Matrix to scale the new image var myMatrix = new Matrix(); myMatrix.translate(-23,-19); myMatrix.scale(0.25, 0.25); snapshot.draw(_root.holder, myMatrix); This actually creates bitmap data with the filters 4 times as wide as they should be in the scaled down version so I've had to adjust all the filters to 0.25% of their value on all the blurred MCs before running the above code. This from livedocs... This filter supports stage scaling. However, it does not support general scaling, rotation, and skewing. If the object itself is scaled (_xscale and _yscale are not 100%), the filter effect is not scaled. It is scaled only when you zoom in on the Stage. So when it says zoom in on the Stage - I believe that means the right-click player zoom? On 4/11/07, quinrou .

[Flashcoders] Scaling Filters
I've noticed if I apply for example a 10x 10y blue filter to a MC, then scale it 200%, it retains the 10 pixel blur - which actually makes the MC look less blured because the blur has not been scaled. Is there any way to lock in a filter blur so that when it's scaled, it looks proportional? ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Create a holder movieclip as its parent; the inner movieclip is the one who holds the filter, but the holder movieclip is the one who gets scaled. That, or scale the filter properties back. On your case, it might be the better option as scaling a movieclip with filters applied actually scale the resulting bitmap cache, so you'll have a loss of quality sometimes due to interpolation.
