The flash.filters package contains classes for bitmap filter effects. Filters let you apply rich visual effects, such as blur, bevel, glow, and drop shadows, to display objects.

	Class	Description
	BevelFilter	The BevelFilter class lets you add a bevel effect to display objects.
	BitmapFilter	The BitmapFilter class is the base class for all image filter effects.
	BitmapFilterQuality	The BitmapFilterQuality class contains values to set the rendering quality of a BitmapFilter object.
	BitmapFilterType	The BitmapFilterType class contains values to set the type of a BitmapFilter.
	BlurFilter	The BlurFilter class lets you apply a blur visual effect to display objects.
	ColorMatrixFilter	The ColorMatrixFilter class lets you apply a 4 x 5 matrix transformation on the RGBA color and alpha values of every pixel in the input image to produce a result with a new set of RGBA color and alpha values.
	ConvolutionFilter	The ConvolutionFilter class applies a matrix convolution filter effect.
	DisplacementMapFilter	The DisplacementMapFilter class uses the pixel values from the specified BitmapData object (called the displacement map image) to perform a displacement of an object.
	DisplacementMapFilterMode	The DisplacementMapFilterMode class provides values for the mode property of the DisplacementMapFilter class.
	DropShadowFilter	The DropShadowFilter class lets you add a drop shadow to display objects.
	GlowFilter	The GlowFilter class lets you apply a glow effect to display objects.
	GradientBevelFilter	The GradientBevelFilter class lets you apply a gradient bevel effect to display objects.
	GradientGlowFilter	The GradientGlowFilter class lets you apply a gradient glow effect to display objects.
	ShaderFilter	The ShaderFilter class applies a filter by executing a shader on the object being filtered.
