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?
}

Change Color For More Mcs With Color Object At A Time

Thank you

[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.

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?

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 Bg Color W/ AS?
Can you change the background color of a movie with actionScript?

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
I've a tiny problem. I want to change the color of a circle through actionscript. Is it possible? It would be fantastic if something like this could work:

Thanx in advance.

How Do I Change Color Of Mcs?
This is a menu included in a tutorial of some software. When you click on each of these menu items, it plays a movie on the software (on the left)

Here is what I need to do...

I am wondering if there is a simple actionscript that I can assign to each of the mcs so that when you roll over them they change color. Doesn't have to be fancy- I just want people to realize that the menu items are actionable.

Any advice would be great. Thanks!

Color Change
Hi guys. Hoping someone can help.. I know how to simply change the color of a MC using the :

ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
myColor=new Color(box);
myColor.setRGB(0xFF3399);
}

type of AS, but is it possible for the MC color to blend from one colour to the next rather than changing it as soon as you click on the button? really desperate to get this working but cant seem to find anything online about it.
Hope you can help. Many thanks
Phil

Change MC Color
I have a running example wich may save me some explaning: www.kirl.nl/magnetBall7.html.

If any of the little balls register as hitting the circle, I want to change their color. This is somewhat comlicated by the fact that the little balls all have a black edge, so a colortransform wouldn't really work.

I found a swapElement() command, but I couldn't get it to work properly. I have pasted the relevant part of the code below.

Code:

score = 0;
for( var i=0; i<numBalls; i++)
{
var ball:MovieClip = this["ball" + i];

for (var j=0; j<numGoals; j++)
{
var goal:MovieClip = this["goal" + j];
if(goal.hitTest(ball._x, ball._y, true))
{
score++;
ball.swapElements("ball2");
}
}
}
I have a green ball MC called ball2 in the library.

What am I doing wrong?

Can't Change My Color?
Hi,

I'm using Flash CS3 to make an illustration. I'm pretty good at drawing but I'm new at Flash, so maybe there's a really easy and dumb solution but I just can't figure it out.

I'm using the brush tool, and I was almost finished drawing my image when at some point, I can't change my colors anymore. I'm in the color tab on the upper right side of the screen. On that little square where I can usually select my color (right next to the R,G,B numbers), as soon as I click on it to select a color I want, the cursor goes back to the grey at the bottom of the square. So I'm stuck with the same grey and I can't change it, so therefore I can't finish my image since I need to change my colors.

I bet there's a really easy way to fix it (I must have clicked something I didnt want to by accident) but this is my first time at Flash so I really don't know. I'd love some help because this is for a school project that I really need to finish asap.
