Hello.

Can you apply Colormatrix to to a top level SWF ? so it will affect all chldren images etc…

Or can it only be applied to individual buttons, images objects etc.

Thanks

I noticed the hue in photoshop is wildly different to the hue in flash… do you know why the colours end up so different? what is the calculation behind the flash implementation of hue?

there is a builtin class in fl.motion named AdjustColor

the big advantage is that you can use the same value in the flash IDE and obtain the same result with pure AS3

import fl.motion.AdjustColor;

_color = new AdjustColor();
_color.hue = 0;
_color.contrast = 0;
_color.brightness = 22;
_color.saturation = 67;
_colorMTX = new ColorMatrixFilter( _color.CalculateFinalFlatArray() );

cheers !

This is very helpful. But what I was curious about was COMBINING these effects. Like for example, reducing the hue on a picture with a red tint applied to it. Would one do that by concatenating the two matrices/ arrays used to represent them?

I used the code in the first segment to turn a photo into b/w . the only difference is that in my FLA the photo is on the stage and not created by code.

i used the “this” property to call on all the objects that are connected to my class and ran the function deSat wich had all the code in the upper segment.

when I ran the SWF file the pictures disapeared…
Do you have an explanation how this could happen?
