Can Anyone Dynamically Change Text Color?
Hi all,

is there a way to dynamically tell flash what font color to use on a dynamic text field? (i dont mean the obvious method in the text panel!!!!)

I am loading in content using XML, but cant change the colour of the text dynamically - if i was using HTML tags from a txt file i could use the <font color=...> tag and attribute, but i havent yet worked out how to place these tags within my XML, either as part of text nodes or as element attributes?

Can you dynamically affect the colour of a text field in Flash???

thanks in advance

Dynamically Change Text Color W/ AS?
Hi:

I've got 56 text fields (not input boxes, just a person's name).
In HTML I can set a class and a Stylesheet to change the color of any of them on rollOver (mouseOver in HTML).

Can I do that in Flash? If so, how?
Can I do it without writing a script for each individual instance like I can in HTML?

Dynamically Change Fill Color
How can I dynamically change the color of fill for something created like this:

ActionScript Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("myClip",_root.getNextHighestDepth());with (myClip) { beginFill(0xffffff,100); moveTo(0,0); lineTo(50,0); lineTo(50,100); lineTo(0,100); lineTo(0,0); endFill;}


I'd like to change the fill color onRollOver, onRollOut, onRelease, etc., but I don't know which property to refer to.

I think this link probably would have answered my question, but unfortunately it's now dead:

Dynamically Change Color Of Selected Text
Hi,

how can I change the color of a selected piece of text dynamically?

I tried somethings like this (the function is called by a button):


Code:
function changeColor() {
Selection.setFocus(textFieldname);
Selection.setSelection(begin, end);
sel = textFieldname.text.slice(begin, end);
sel.textColor = "0xFF0000";
}


but I guess 'sel' isn't a string, so i can't add textColor to it?

Adding something like:

Code:
sel = new String(begin, end);

doesn't help much.

thank you,

pl pl help me......its very urgent for me.

I have developed a XML based image gallery. According to the xml length my script generates number on the stage like

how would i do this??

Return MC To Original Color After Dynamic Color Change
How is it done? All I've seen on the web is how to change the color. Well how about going back. I'm talking about a MC with many colors. I can't just change back to a single hexadecimal color.

I can accomplish the change as it passes over a frame, but I can't get it to change back.

In the frame is this:


ActionScript Code:
cHurtColor = new Color(_root.compMC);cHurtColor.setRGB(0x00FF33);

Trying to keep this simple....

Button Change Color On Select, Then Change Back
I have 3 buttons, named but,but2,but3. What I want is if you click a button it changes color to show what page your on. But when you click a different button now that one is highlighted and the original one goes back to the original color. Here's the code.
but3.onPress = function () {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
loadMovie("banner3.swf", "container");
container._x = 0;
container._y = 0 ;

I figure I have to add some kind of if statement?

[F8] Color Swatch Or Change - Color Object?
You know how on retail sites or even a car site you can swap the color by clicking on the swatch and than the image changes the color. I wanted to do this in flash preferably with actionscripting but I have NO CLUE how to do it. Can anyone show me a tutorial or advise me o how to do this. This is just a BASIC example in flash five but this is the same concept I want. http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/i...y/colorobject/ If anyone knows of a high level example with tutorial I would appreciate it.

Random Color + Change Color With AS With Ease
HI,

I followed this tutorial , but I´d like to add something more but don´t know how.

I[d like to make the MC to load a random color, in a color range that I specify, like #000000, #FFFFFF and #111111.

Also, I want somew buttons to change between this colors, but with an ease transition.

How can I do this?

Drag Color And Change Objects Color
i looked at the kirupa's paint tutorial and it really didn't achieve the effect that i'm going for. i'm new to actionscript so i can't figure it out for myself, so i'm hoping someone can shed some light on the situation for me.

here is the setup: i have an object that i rendered in 3d studio max. will just call it a box. i have rendered that box in 3 different colors. red, yellow, and blue. i saved them each individually as targa files and imported them into flash. i created a movie with 3 frames. frame one contains the red box image, frame 2 contains the yellow box, and frame 3 contains the blue box. each frame has the stop command applied to it.

now on the main timeline, i have 3 different circles that have been converted to buttons each colored red, yellow and blue. now i can use a "tellTarget" type action to make the playhead on the box movie clip to jump to the corresponding colored circle that was clicked, but i'd rather let the user be able to drag the colored circle to that box, release, and change the box to the color that corresponds to that circle. i don't know if that requires some type of collision detection script or not. the box has no background so all there is, is the box itself so collision detection should just detect the box itself...right??

i would appreciate any insight that you could give me!!! if need be, i can supply a *.fla file for you to look at.

How Dynamically Change The Image In Dynamically Created Row Of Images?
Hi everybody,
I am wondering if someone can help me to find out on how to replace the images in row of dynamically loaded images. I need on Press of an icon from the row of images replace the image of this icon to new one. Below is the code of creating the images row based on array and XMl data. I create an array based on data taking from XML.

Code:
var numOfImages:Number;
var thumbHeight:Number = 8;
var thumbSpace:Number = 100;
var thumbTotalDistance:Number = thumbHeight+thumbSpace;
var xCounter:Number = 5;
var thumbsCollectionHeight:Number;
var currentImage:Number = 0;
var moveOutDist:Number = 10;
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
var IM_Img:Array = new Array();
var IM_Title:Array = new Array();
//==================================================================================================================
//=============================== THUMBS IMAGE LOADER ==========================================================
//==================================================================================================================

var thumbImgLoader2:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var thumbImgListener2:Object = new Object();

thumbImgListener2.onLoadProgress = function(target:MovieClip):Void {

};
thumbImgLoader2.addListener(thumbImgListener2);
thumbImgListener2.onLoadComplete = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void {

};

//==================================================================================================================
//=============================== XML ==================================================================================================
//==================================================================================================================

var totalXML:XML = new XML();

totalXML.ignoreWhite = true;
totalXML.onLoad = function(success) {

var TNnode = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes;
numOfImages = TNnode.length;

//---------------- ATTACHING THUMBS -----------------
//===========================================================================================================

for (i=0; i<numOfImages; i++) {
var mc:MovieClip = imCollection_mc.thumbs_mc.attachMovie("mcThumb_IM", "thumb_" + i, i);
mc._y = 0;
mc._x = xCounter;

xCounter = xCounter+thumbTotalDistance;
thumbImgLoader2.loadClip(TNnode[i].attributes.thumb,mc.loader_mc);


IM_Title.push(TNnode[i].attributes.title);
imCollection_mc.thumbs_mc["thumb_" + i].mc_title.title_txt.text = IM_Title[currentImage];

mc.id = i;
trace (mc.id);

mc.onPress = mc_im_onPress;

mc.xx = mc._x;
mc.yy = mc._y;

}
};

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
totalXML.load("images.xml");
Here is onPress event where I was thinking to add this functionality:

Code:
function mc_im_onPress() {

mcToSelect = this;

if(this.id==8){
//here I need to tell to replace the image from mc8 to new image from array to image#34 from xml
}
}
Any advice is highly appreciated. Thanks.

var myCol:Color = new Color(back_mc);
ColorChooser .changeHandler = function() {

Sorry if this is all very confusing...a path issue probably but I can't figure it out. Could someone help me please?

Help Using AS To Change Color
Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to change a small spinning house MC named "house" to a different color using AS... I would like it to change using the hittest method when you just rollover it ... or....

I would like when you rollover the invisable button I have over it to have the rollover code to change the color of the house MC... this is what I have on the invisable button right now and it isn't working:

on (rollOver) {
black = new Color(house);
black.setRGB(OxFFCFCF);
}
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay ("home");
}



FFCFCF is the hexidecimal color I would like to change it to. I would like it to be like a tint function. I got this portion of code from one of the tutorials on the site but I think I have somehow messed it up.

Thanks in advance.

Change Color Of MC
Hi!!

Haven't done any flash for a while. I only do it for my own purposes and for friends. I'm making a flash that has a movie clip i want to change colors. Ive searched the forums and tutorials on several sites but can't seem to find the solution to my problem.

I can get it working if i place the actionscript on the main timeline. But i'd perfer to change it inside the mc since the main timeline may get more complex when i add the text animation.

The problem i have is when i try to change the color inside the movie clip (logo_mc). inside logo_mc is another mc named my_logo. my_logo just has a gif image i want to change colors. I'ts just a b&W image.

I use onClip(load) where i define the color and transform objects. Then I have an onClip(enterFrame) where i use random numbers to generate the new rgb values.

When the mc reaches the onClip scripts, i can see the color start to change then it goes back to the original color.

I've used the trace function and noticed that each time it hits the frame with the onClip() that it not only process the onClip(load) each time, but that it seems to go through the onClip(enterframe) statements 3 times...I have 3 statements to get new values for the rgb values...one for each r,g,b. When I put in 3 more variables to generate the ra, ga, ba, values i get what appears to be 6 loops through the onClip(enterframe). Is there a casue and effect here that I'm unaware of?

So here's the code...

onClipEvent (load) {
changeColor = new Color(this);
colorTransform = new Object();
n = 1;trace("GRRRRRRRRRRR");
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
colorTransform.rb = Math.round(Math.random()*255);
colorTransform.gb = Math.round(Math.random()*255);
colorTransform.bb = Math.round(Math.random()*255);
n = 1;
trace(colorTransform.bb);
changeColor.setTransform(colorTransform);

}

This code is in frame 8. where i'd like the color transform to take palce. I've tried it in frame one of the mc but get the same results. Any ideas? The attached fla might expalin things better than i did. It's not very complex.

Thanks!!!

PS looks like file too large with other graphics...sould work now
