I have a photoshop layout that I need to take into Flash and one element of the layout uses the Saturation blend mode… ordinarily I would just flatten the image and cut it out but the content under the element changes, so obviously I can’t do that. Is there someway to recreate/simulate/apply the saturation blendmode onto something in Flash 8? Or do I have to go buy CS3 or something?
