Hello -

Is it possible to apply dynamically a ‘Blur’ filter on a cloned ‘Bitmap’?  
I tried the code below, but without succes. It’s solely cloned my picture :hangover:

```auto

var cloneMap:BitmapData = new Bitmap(mapIntroLoader.content).bitmapData.clone(); 
var mapCloneContainer_mc:Sprite = new Sprite(); 
mapCloneContainer_mc.addChild(cloneMap); 
 
var blurry:BlurFilter = new BlurFilter(10,10); // BitmapFilterQuality.LOW 
var myBlur:Array = new Array(); 
myBlur.push(blurry); 
mapCloneContainer_mc.filters = myBlur;

```

Thank you for any help, have a nice end of week-end…
