[Golist] HydroTween Color Matrix solutions

Of course,..right in front of me...
Such an easy fix, doh!
Thank moses!
I have a few sites i'm working on using goASAP i can't wait to launch, i will keep you posted...
Keep up the good work...

Try using that color reset constant on the remove color tween...

		Greetings everyone,
	 
	            I’m currently working on a photo gallery which I have a line of pics that display one after another.  I’m sliding the line around depending on which pic has been selected.  The transitions are where I’m running into difficulty.  I’m using HydroTween to de-saturate and then saturate the images, with the following code:
	 
	            public function set inColor(bool:Boolean):void{
	                                               
	                                                if(bool!=_inColor || !_setColor){
	                                                            trace("\n\t -- set color : "+_index);
	                                                            _inColor = bool;
	                                                            _setColor = true;
	                                                            if(_inColor){ //--add color
	                                                                        HydroTween.go(this, { saturation:2.8}, 1, 0, Quartic.easeOut);
	                                                            }else{ //--remove color
	                                                                        HydroTween.go(this, { saturation:-0.9}, 1, 0, Quartic.easeOut);
	                                                            }
	                                                }
	                                    }
	 
	What’s interesting is the numbers I’ve had to use to get it to “kinda” work.  I realize that the colorMatrix is involved so technically we are adding filters one after another, which eventually, if I keep going back and forth, completely de-saturates the images.
	My question:
	Is there a clean way anyone has used to “reset” the filters so I’m not cumulatively adding filters onto my pics.  Basically, I want to be able to just set saturation to 1, and let it display normal, and set it to -1 to de-saturate, but that’s not working at all. 
	 
	Any thoughts from the team?
	 
	I decided to post here feeling this may be a pretty common problem with the colorMatrix side of HydroTween if one is just trying to go back and forth from the same effect, in this case saturation…
	 
	Thanks
