Applying blur filters in AS3?

[Radica1Faith]

I'm having trouble applying blur filters in action script 3. From what I've gathered I have to create a filter variable. So I did this

var blurX:Number=10;
var blurY:Number=10;
var filter:BlurFilter=new BlurFilter(blurX,blurY,BitmapFilterQuali ty.HIGH);

and I apply the filter like so.
bosses.filter=filter;

I get no compiler errors. But nothing is blurred. Any ideas?

bosses.filters = [filter];

hmm that doesn't seem to work for some reason.

Shouldn't it be bosses.filters? I don't use AS3, but that's how it is in AS2.
