That's what I thought but it only contains trigger effects. The effects dictionary contains effect instances that are registered in mx.effects.EffectInstance startEffect() and then removed with the finishEffect(). You can get the public function startEffect():void { EffectManager.e

Effects is a Dictionary that uses an effect as the key of an entry, and only ever uses 1 as the value of an entry. If you want to know what effects are playing, can't you use the mx_internal 'effectsPlaying' property? This is an array of EffectNodes (an internal class so you wouldn't be able to
