DisplacementMapFilter

Package | spark.filters
Class | public class DisplacementMapFilter
Inheritance | DisplacementMapFilter BaseFilter flash.events.EventDispatcher
Implements | IBitmapFilter

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 4

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The DisplacementMapFilter class uses the pixel values from the specified BitmapData object (called the displacement map image) to perform a displacement of an object. You can use this filter to apply a warped or mottled effect to any object that inherits from the DisplayObject class, such as MovieClip, SimpleButton, TextField, and Video objects, as well as to BitmapData objects.

The use of filters depends on the object to which you apply the filter:

- To apply filters to a display object, use the `filters` property of the display object. Setting the `filters` property of an object does not modify the object, and you can remove the filter by clearing the `filters` property.
- To apply filters to BitmapData objects, use the `BitmapData.applyFilter()` method. Calling `applyFilter()` on a BitmapData object takes the source BitmapData object and the filter object and generates a filtered image.

If you apply a filter to a display object, the value of the `cacheAsBitmap` property of the display object is set to `true`. If you clear all filters, the original value of `cacheAsBitmap` is restored.

The filter uses the following formula:

    dstPixel[x, y] = srcPixel[x + ((componentX(x, y) - 128) * scaleX) / 256, y + ((componentY(x, y) - 128) *scaleY) / 256)

where `componentX(x, y)` gets the `componentX` property color value from the `mapBitmap` property at `(x - mapPoint.x ,y - mapPoint.y)`.

The map image used by the filter is scaled to match the Stage scaling. It is not scaled when the object itself is scaled.

This filter supports Stage scaling. However, general scaling, rotation, and skewing are not supported. If the object itself is scaled (if the `scaleX` and `scaleY` properties are set to a value other than 1.0), the filter effect is not scaled. It is scaled only when the user zooms in on the Stage.

Property Detail

alpha | property

`alpha:Number`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 4

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies the alpha transparency value to use for out-of-bounds displacements. It is specified as a normalized value from 0.0 to 1.0. For example, .25 sets a transparency value of 25%. The default value is 0. Use this property if the mode property is set to DisplacementMapFilterMode.COLOR.

The default value is `0`.

Implementation
`public function get alpha():Number`
`public function set alpha(value:Number):void`

color | property |

`color:uint`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 4

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Specifies what color to use for out-of-bounds displacements. The valid range of displacements is 0.0 to 1.0. Values are in hexadecimal format. The default value for color is 0. Use this property if the mode property is set to DisplacementMapFilterMode.COLOR.

The default value is `0x000000`.

Implementation
`public function get color():uint`
`public function set color(value:uint):void`

componentX | property |

`componentX:uint`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 4

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

Describes which color channel to use in the map image to displace the x result. Possible values are BitmapDataChannel constants:

- `BitmapDataChannel.ALPHA`
- `BitmapDataChannel.BLUE`
- `BitmapDataChannel.GREEN`
- `BitmapDataChannel.RED`

The default value is `0, meaning no channel.`.

Implementation
`public function get componentX():uint`
`public function set componentX(value:uint):void`
