Filter Tweening in action script

programming flash
1

Hey guys.

I have a function I use when ever i want to move some thing in flash. it looks like this:

 
function MoveYourMc(target, newx, newy, speed) 
{ 
    var _loc1 = target; 
    var _loc4 = newx; 
    var _loc5 = newy; 
    var _loc3 = speed; 
    var _loc2 = mx.transitions.easing.Back.easeInOut; 
    myTweenY = new mx.transitions.Tween(_loc1, "_y", _loc2, _loc1._y, _loc5, _loc3); 
    myTweenX = new mx.transitions.Tween(_loc1, "_x", _loc2, _loc1._x, _loc4, _loc3); 
} // End of the function

and i can then call this any where in my movie using:

 
InstanceName.onRollOver = function () 
{ 
    MoveYourMc(InstanceName, 123, 456, 20); 
};

which would move “InstanceName” to an _x of 123 and a _y of 456 at a speed of 20.

What i have been trying to do is make a similar function for the Glow Filter and im really struggling.

Im wondering if what i need to do is attach the glow filter to the instance before i try and tween it? any one got any ideas?

This is what i have been working with:

function GlowYourMc(target, newblurx, newblury, speed) 
{ 
    var _loc1 = target; 
    var _loc4 = newblurx; 
    var _loc5 = newblury; 
    var _loc3 = speed; 
    var _loc2 = mx.transitions.easing.Back.easeInOut; 
    target.GlowFilter(0xFFFFFF, 0, 0, 0, 2, 3, false, false);
    myTweenY = new mx.transitions.Tween(_loc1, "blurY", _loc2, _loc1.blurY, _loc5, _loc3); 
    myTweenX = new mx.transitions.Tween(_loc1, "blurX", _loc2, _loc1.blurX, _loc4, _loc3); 
} // End of the function

which i have been trying to execute with:

instanceName.onRollOver = function () 
{ 
GlowYourMc(instanceName, 50, 50, 20) 
};
