Hey, I’m using DropShadowFilter in actionscript, I got it working, except I’M CONFUSED about one thing.

I’m emulating (in AS) something I did in the filters panel. the AS dropShadow Filter has an alpha property and in the panel they don’t does anybody know how to setup dropShadowFilters to match drop shadow panel ???

```auto
var Shadow:DropShadowFilter = new DropShadowFilter(7,45,0x000000, .6,7,7,150,1,true,false,true);

```

my panel info is:  
xBlur= 7, yBlur= 7, stength = 150, quality = low, knockout = false, inner = true, hide = true

any help would be super-duper

p.s. sorry for double-posting.
