Hi
Does anyone have any code that I can look at on how to set up effects in AS3 and how to apply properties on different effects. I've taken a look at the pixelate sample on the site but can't seem to be able to understand how you apply, say, maxPixelSize for instance.
Is there anyone out there?

Hello Lee,
Here's a list with all the parameters for each effect: http://www.extendstudio.com/documentation/creative-moviefx-v2/documentation/docs/effects-parameters.html
The parameters for each effect are added in the constructor of the MovieFX class. They are added as strings with properties separated by commas. Here are the parameters that are received by the MovieFX constructor: http://www.extendstudio.com/documentation/creative-moviefx-v2/documentation/docs/classes/class-moviefxmain-parameters.html
Tell me if you have more questions.
Regards,
Andrei Rinciog

Do you have example code of applying the firefly effect that I could take a look at?
Thanks

Hello,
We don't have any example but I did a quick test and here's how you can set it up:
import xtd.movieFX_v2.effects.FireFlyEffect;
import xtd.movieFX_v2.presets.wait_FireFlyEffect;
var waitEffectName : String = "FireFlyEffect";
var waitEffectProperties : String = wait_FireFlyEffect.Extend_Default;
waitEffectProperties += ";numberOfFireFlies=10" +
";minimumAlpha=1" +
";maximumAlpha=1"
";minimumFireflyRadius=3.1" +
";maxNumberOfRotations=10";
mfx = new MovieFXMain(
target,
"PixelateEffect",
waitEffectName,
"PixelateEffect",
"NoneEffect",
in_PixelateEffect.Extend_Default,
waitEffectProperties,
out_PixelateEffect.Extend_Default,
actions_NoneEffect.Extend_Default,
movieFXMainConfig
);
mfx.container.x = 25;
mfx.container.y = 25;
mfx.start();
As you can see, I first load the default preset and then add to that string the properties that I want to change. This way you can make sure that the effect will look decent and you don't forget any property.
