( ):
rect
import flash.filters.BevelFilter;
var distance:Number = 5;
var angleInDegrees:Number = 45;
var highlightColor:Number = 0xFFFF00;
var highlightAlpha:Number = .8;
var shadowColor:Number = 0x0000FF;
var shadowAlpha:Number = .8;
var blurX:Number = 5;
var blurY:Number = 5;
var strength:Number = 5;
var quality:Number = 3;
var type:String = "inner";
var knockout:Boolean = false;
var filter:BevelFilter = new BevelFilter(distance,
var rect:MovieClip = createRectangle(100, 100, 0x00CC00,
"bevelFilterExample");
rect.filters = new Array(filter);
function createRectangle(w:Number, h:Number, bgColor:Number,
name:String):MovieClip {
var rect:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(name,
this.getNextHighestDepth());
rect.beginFill(bgColor);
rect.lineTo(w, 0);
