Changing The Color Of Clicked Object
Hi,
I'm looking for a way to change the color of the object that I click on. Something like a paint program where you first click to select the color and then click on the place which you want to color.
Thanks

Changing An Object's Color
i have this old piece of code:
Code:
if (Number(charinline)<=Number(linelen)) {
duplicateMovieClip("/fx_" add fx add "_0", "char" add i, i);
set("/char" add i add "/letter/lettercolor:char", key);
setProperty("/cursor", _x, Number(startx)+Number(charinline*kerning)-20);
setProperty("/char" add i, _x, Number(startx)+Number(charinline*kerning));
setProperty("/char" add i, _y, Number(starty)+Number(linenum*linespace));
charinline = Number(charinline)+1;
i = Number(i)+1;
}
... which duplicates and places mc named "char[i]" on the stage based on predetermined _x & _y values, now i need to change the color of said mc. how can i do that? i've been trying to find a way but i gave up after 3 hours.
any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks much

Changing Object Color With AS
hi I am trying to make a smooth color transition using AS2
the way I have now the mc changes colors just fine, but not smooth like when you use tween. I know there is a 'get Transform' function but I don't know how to apply maybe someone has an example??
Code:
function changeBG(col) {
var c = new Color(_root.bg);
c.setRGB(col);
}
changeBG(0xCC3366);
Can I Get Some Help With Changing The Color Of An Object?
I'm trying to make the following - I have 5 buttons corresponding to five sections in my Flash movie..I want to make it so, that when I click on a button it background color changes(to show that it was clicked and I'm in that section)...
The button is located inside a movieclip(not in the root timeline)...
For the purpose I converted the background of the button (which I want to change) to a movie clip, so I could use the "setRGB" command, but still I'm doing something wrong and nothing happens...
Can someone explain to me clearly the mechanism of changing the color of a movie clip?
Thanks in advance!

Changing The Color Of An Object At Every Execution
I have a problem:
I have one file, template.as, this file keeps color configuration to make changes of my site.
I would like to know if it is possible to change color of an object every time of execution (run time).
I am using setRGB() function to make these changes.
The variable that defines the template that will be used is loaded with loadVariablesNum() function.
My script works only when I compile my movie clip (generate .swf)
I want to change the colors without having to "compile" my movie every time.
If someone can help me with other functions or any other way to do this, I will be very grateful.
Thanks

Gradually Changing The Color Of An Object
What I want to do is to transition the color of an object to a different color gradually. In other words, in frame 1 i have a light gray circle. In frame 30, I have a dark gray circle. I want to show a smooth transition from the light gray to the dark gray. Can this be done with a motion tween?
Changing Object Color Using ActionScript
First hello to everyone from a newbie
And now to the problem..i want to change color of an object via AS, which seems simple enough but stay with me. Id already seen http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/color.htm but here the object processed is made of multiple rectangles and my object cannot be really made of it. To be more precise, i want to create an image of an house and change it's color. I tried drawing it with lines, then making it a symbol and change it according to the tutorial but all i accomplished is changing the color of lines.
Anyone has another suggestion?
Thanks in advance
So Easy, I Can't Do It - Changing Object Color
I draw a circle on the stage.
I select it and save as symbol, i call it mc_circle and "export to action script" as my_mc_cirle
I cannot get the circle to change color using what I imagine should be a 1 liner. Very frustrated
my_mc_circle.setRGB(0x0000CC);
and
mc_circle.setRGP(0x0000CC);
are doing nothing??
Changing The Color Of An Object/movie Clip
I had an object that I wanted to be visible and invisible at my choosing... had to change it to a movie clip (this seems silly to me... you should be able to do it to objects)... but now I want to change the color of this movie clip object at the click of a color... how would I go about doing this... I tried this without success:
c=new Color(img_boy);
c.setRGB( 0x000000 );
Thank you
Button A Different Color After Clicked
Sorry if this problem has been addressed before but here it goes.
I am creating an interface with four main buttons. When the user clicks on one of the buttons and the movie goes to that scene, I would like for that particular button to have a different color than the other buttons. It will retain this color while the user is in that scene.
How do I do this?
Thanks for the help as always.

It works quite fine but I afraid that it's quite resource consuming using enterframe and bitmap drawing. Is there any better method?

[CS3] Changing Color (and Opacity Of That Color) Of Movie Clip
Hi. I have a pretty large movie clip filled with pngs. It's a sprite for a game and I want to change it's color. The setRGB method works, but I can't figure out how to set the opacity of the color. I don't want to change the alpha of the movie clip itself, just the color I'm applying to it so that it's just a shade over the normal images.
Is there any way to do this?

Getting The Name Of The Clicked Object
Hello, I have searched the forum for the topic, but no luck, so sorry if this is double post.
Anyway, I have a problem. I don't know how can I use the property (name/variable/text) of a text object when clicked on it?
Lets say I have a text object which holds the "myvar" in variable, and when I click on that text, I want that myvar to be written in text of other text object...
on (release) {
text2.text = text1.variable
}
but I need that text1 to be automatically the name of the text I click on. I tried me, this, etc, but no luck...
Please help.
Thank you!

Identify Clicked Object : The
I am currently working on a learning interaction. I'd like the movie to react to user click in a non object-oriented manner.
The idea is : The user clicks somewhere -->If the right object is clicked then gotoAndPlay("Right"), and Else GotoandPlay("Wrong"). As Actionscript is object-oriented, I cannot figure out how to code a unique handler for a click "anywhere else". Coding actions for all other objects would obviously be a pain - and a buggy strategy -. Catching the click is easy but has someone an idea to determine whether the clicked object is the "Right" one?
Thank in advance

Setting A Variable To The Value Returned From A Clicked Object
Hi there. New to ActionScript so apologies if this is a simple question.
I have on the stage a number of 'buttons', which are actually instances of a movieclip mcOuterBtn, generated by AS. This movie clip is simply a dynamic text field, NOT a conventional Flash button. Each instance has the unique name outer0, outer1, outer2, etc. and when it is clicked I need it to return its ID number (0, 1, 2, etc.) so that a value set up on the stage's script can be changed. I have no problem in getting the button's ID but I cannot change the variable set up in the stage with this value.
So, in the stage ActionScript I have the variable assignment:
var hardwareSelect:Number;
And on each 'button':
this.onRelease = function():Void
{
// Get the ID of the 'button'
myID = whatever;
// Set the global variable 'hardwareSelect' to this value
hardwareSelect = myID;
}
When I trace the variable in the main ActionScript, I am just getting 'undefined'. How can I change this value from clicking the instance of the mcOuterBtn movie clip?
Thanks for any advice.

Please Help With IF, ELSE And COLOR Changing
Hi everybody,
I'm just trying to build an actionscript, which makes the following:
When I rollOver a button, a MC changes its color to RGB #666666. When I click on the button, the same MC changes its color to RGB #999999. Now I want to make the following: When I rollOut the button, the MC should change its color again: If the last setRGB is #666666, it has to change to #0066CC, if the last setRGB is #999999, it has to stay in #999999. I simply don't get, how this works. Until now, I've got the following script for the button:
on (rollOut) {
outColor = new Color(movie);
statusColor = Color(movie);
statusColor.getRGB();
if (statusColor = "0x999999") {
outColor.setRGB(0x999999);
} else {
outColor.setRGB(0x0066CC);
}
}
Please can anyone help me getting the right script?? Thanks a million in advance,

Color Changing
I have downloaded several movies from the gallery to disect and inspect, and from my studies I've found a strange color problem. Whenever I change the color of a fill, I sometimes have trouble getting back to the original color. For instance: Image1 is an odd shade of dark gray. Image2 is the same color. I change Image 2 to white. Later, I select Image2 and click the color box to select a color, and I use the dropper tool to get the color from Image1. Then I click the fill tool onto white Image2 which becomes a color which is dark gray, but not quite as dark as the Image1 color. Anybody else seen this?

Changing Color Of Mc?
I have a movie called card. I want to change the color when a different button hits it. The code I am using changes the mc once and then stops. A friend looked at the FLA and told me I have to write a path to the array-but that did not work -here is the code
cardColor = new Color(hand.card);
cardColorArray = ["0x342286", "0x00cc66", "0x996699", "0xFFFFFF", "0x000000", "0x000000" ];
if (top = [0]) {

} else {
if (top = [1]){
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[1]);
} else {
if (top = [2]) {
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[2]);
} else {
if (top = [3]) {
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[3]);
} else {
if (_top = [4]) {
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[4]);
} else {
if (top = [5]) {
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[5]);
}
}
}
}
}
}
In the same Mc I have a Var called top
On my main timeline I have an array that looks like this
top = ["A", "P", "C", "E", "P", "S"];
