Delay time / hide transition through AS

Hey guys, I'm trying to only hide my mc and it works perfectly. However, my problem is with the delay time. It hides right the way, it won't wait the delay I'm putting in? I'm sure i got it wrong somewhere. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

import com.jumpeye.Events.FLASHEFFEvents;
import com.jumpeye.flashEff.symbol.blur.FESBlur;

var myPatternHide:FESBlur = new FESBlur();
myPatternHide.tweenType = "Regular";
myPatternHide.easeType = "easeOut";
myPatternHide.tweenDuration = 3;

var myEffect:FlashEff = new FlashEff();
myEffect.hideTransition = myPatternHide;
myEffect.hideAutoPlay = false; //tried both values (true of false still it wouldn't wait the delay imput)
myEffect.hideDelay = 5; //here's the bugger, what ever number i put in here, it would play right through, hide that is.

var image:imageMC = new imageMC();
image.name = "image";
image.x = 0;
image.y = 0;
addChild(image);
addChild(myEffect);
myEffect._targetInstanceName = "image";
myEffect.hide();

i believe your problem is at the end because you call hide method and before that you set autoPlay false
just set hideAutoPlay true and delete myEffect.hide() and it will work perfectly
