| angle | property |
angle:Number| Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |

The angle, in degrees. Valid values are 0 to 360. The angle value represents the angle of the theoretical light source falling on the object and determines the placement of the effect relative to the object. If distance is set to 0, the effect is not offset from the object, and therefore the angle property has no effect.
The default value is 45.

The placement of the filter effect. Possible values are flash.filters.BitmapFilterType constants:
BitmapFilterType.OUTER - Glow on the outer edge of the object.BitmapFilterType.INNER - Glow on the inner edge of the object.BitmapFilterType.FULL - Glow on top of the object. The default value is BitmapFilterType.INNER.
