Flash :: Change Color For More Mcs With Color Object At A Time

[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.

Change Color With AS Over Time
I've been digging in the forums and I'm trying to find a way to change a movieclip's color over a period of time using actionscript. I've found a lot of examples using setTransform but none are doing it over a period of time.

Basically the effect I'm going for it to have a picture fade in over another picture, but when it fades in, it's like a burst of white light. I know you can do it on the timeline under the advanced settings and up the RGB values by 100, but how do I do this with AS over a period of time.

Thanx in advance.

How Can I Get The Picture To Change Color And Have Sound At The Same Time?
can anyone tell me how can i get this result for the flash file i attached;

1. make the sound appear (i could not import the sound to the library cause the file size is too large),when the user clicks on the black square on the stage,

at the same time.....

2. make the sound appear when the user press the key on the computer keyboard, "a" ,

3. make the square change to another color (eg: black square to a blue square)when the user does step 1 and 2.

i tried using this code.. but i wouldn't work:

ActionScript Code:
on(press, keyPress "a"){ function check() { Key.isDown(65) ? a._visible=1 : a._visible=0; } setInterval(check, 50); soundObj = new Sound( ); soundObj.attachSound( "doremi" ); soundObj.start();}

what is the correct way to do it?

How Do I Change The Color Of A Movieclip Each Time It Loops?
I have a hexagon that follows a motion path. This motion path is a movie clip, and so is the hexagon inside the motion path movieclip. Each time it loops I want it to randomly choose between 4 colors. Any ideas? I was trying to create a function using the Color object, but it didn't seem to work for movieclips inside a movie clip for some reason. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Change Color Object (file Attached)
I attached a file in order to make things more clear.

As you can see the color in the "color pallete"
are MovieClips (but I don't mind using buttons instead).

At the left side of the scene there are 3 objects
(MovieClips as well):
1. cube
2. triangle
3. Circle

And there's an active-color box as well.

When I'll click a color on the color pallete the color in the active-color box will chnage to the choosen color, then when I'll click an object (no matter what object) it will change it's color to the choosen color, and so on... if I'll choose another color the active-color box will show the choosen color and when I'll click an object it will change it's color to the new choosen color.

any help is good

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....

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.

Setting The Color Of Multiple MCs Using One Color Object
Hiya I am making a movie that has to be published to Flash Player 6 and want to set a bunch of movie clips to have the same color. Here is my function:

ActionScript Code:
var fillObjs_ar:Array = [square_mc, circle_mc];function colours(array:Array, color) { for (i=0; i<array.length; i++) { var my_color:Color = new Color(array[i]); my_color.setRGB(0x+color); }}colours(fillObjs_ar, FF0000);

My problem is that I get the error message:
"Hexadecimal digits expected after 0x" referring to the 4th line of my function.
If anyone could help me out it would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Using A Color Chooser To Change Color Of MC
Hi,

I'm using a component which allows you to change the color of MCs but I can't get it to work...newbie sorry...

I have an MC on the stage with the instance main_mc which contains another MC called back_mc as well as a Mc (button_mc) which contains the component on frame 2 (ColorChooser) with this script :

code:
stop();
var myCol:Color = new Color(back_mc);
ColorChooser .changeHandler = function() {
myCol.setRGB(main_mc.back_mc.value);
};

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

Color Object- Get Color Name?
Hello,

I made a color picker and I was wondering if the color object had any way of grabbing the actual color name?

I know I could put all the colors into an array and call them up as needed... I've done the same thing in C#... and the color object in C# has a color name feature, I was wondering if Flash's color object had the same deal.

Change Color Of Button With Value Of Color Of Dynamic Button
I'm new to actionscripting so bear with me.

i have dynamically created several buttons with random colors. these are the source buttons from which to retrieve the color value.
i use another button as a destination button. When clicked it should change it's color to the color of a previous clicked button.
i use a global variable for storing the colorvalue. this colorvalue is used by the destination button so it will change in that color.

my problem is not to change the color of the destination button but to retrieve the color of the dynamically created source buttons. can anybody give ,me any pointers on how to do this correctly.

here's some code i am using. i've got this feeling it's a refferencing problem

//code which is under the source button
on(release)
{
butcol=new color();
_root.transfercolor=butcol.getrgb();
_root.givecolor(this);
}

//code for the dynamically created source buttons which i put in
//frame 1
var transfercolor;
for(var i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
duplicatemovieclip("button"+(i-1),"button"+i,i);
eval("button"+i)._y+=25;
butcolor=new color("button"+i);
butcolor.setrgb(math.floor(math.random()* 0xffffff));
}

//code under the destination button
on(release)
{
mycolour = _root.transfercolor;
butcolor=new color(_root.mainbutton);
butcolor.setrgb(mycolour);
_root.givecolor(this);
}

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?
}

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.

Color Change
Is there a way for movie clips to reference a variable in order to set their fill and outline color? I thought it would be advantageous to set up some code for the 'interface' portion of a site to make color changes easy. I've checked out the .new Color actionscript but I'm not sure it would handle what I'm after. Any thoughts or links??

Thanks!

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

Change MC Color Through AS

Thanx in advance.
