applying styles to library MCs added to the stage

Question

Hi,I am at really at a loss on this. If I manually place an image component on the stage, I can apply CSS styles to it no problem.myImage.style.WebkitFilter = "invert(1)";This works fine!HOWEVERif I add the image from the library via script, e.g., stage.addChild(myImage), the style doesn't apply to the same image. Any ideas on how to apply styles to images added to the stage from the library via script? This is driving me absolutely nuts. Thanks in advance.

Components create browser DOM elements floated over the stage. That's why they can take CSS styles. Library items rendered to the the stage canvas element are just pixels on a bitmap. You can't style pixels.
