Adjusting brightness with Flex ColorMatrixFilter class
Post by efox | Date: 2008-12-28
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. You can apply the filter to any display object (that is, objects that inherit from the DisplayObject class), such as MovieClip, SimpleButton, TextField, and Video objects, as well as to BitmapData objects. Here is the example to adjusting brightness of a picture.

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical"
creationComplete="transformImage()" verticalScrollPolicy="off" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
