   I'm having some issues using the stop method on a steady counter - how exactly to I reference it? Basically I want to be able to toggle the particles on and off.

   Either retain a reference to your counter -
   
   var steadyCounter:Steady = new Steady( 100 );
emitter.counter = steadyCounter;
steadyCounter.stop();
   
   or cast the counter reference from the emitter
   
   emitter.counter = new Steady( 100 );
Steady( emitter.counter ).stop();
   
   A future version will require all counters to have a stop method, so stop can be rolled into the Counter interface and there will be no need for the type cast.
