Colour Picker / Colour Transform
Hi...

This query has been bugging me for a little while, and it may be easy to answer, I don't know.

I'm using a fairly simple colour transform script to change the tint of a mc...
code:
myColor = new Color(_root.bgdvideo);
if(!ccc){_root.bgdvideo.setRGB(0x990000);
}else{
myColor.setRGB(ccc);
}
MovieClip.prototype.beginFade = function(dstX, durationOfFade) {
this.myColor = new Color(this);
this.srcX = this.myColor.getTransform();
this.dstX = dstX;
this.startOfFade = getTimer();
this.durationOfFade = durationOfFade;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var r = (getTimer()-this.startOfFade)/this.durationOfFade;
if (r>1) {
r = 1;
this.onEnterFrame = null;
}
var tX = {ra:this.srcX.ra*(1-r)+this.dstX.ra*r, rb:this.srcX.rb*(1-r)+this.dstX.rb*r, ga:this.srcX.ga*(1-r)+this.dstX.ga*r, gb:this.srcX.gb*(1-r)+this.dstX.gb*r, ba:this.srcX.ba*(1-r)+this.dstX.ba*r, bb:this.srcX.bb*(1-r)+this.dstX.bb*r, aa:this.srcX.aa*(1-r)+this.dstX.aa*r, ab:this.srcX.ab*(1-r)+this.dstX.ab*r};
this.myColor.setTransform(tX);
ccc = this.myColor.getRGB();
};
};

I know you have to change the ra, rb, (etc) values to alter the colour which you get (as in)...
code:
_root.bgdvideo.beginFade({ra:50, rb:204, ga:0, gb:0, ba:50, bb:255, aa:100, ab:100}, 1000);
...but I wondered if anyone knows a trick / way to find out the values you'd put in for (ra, rb, etc) to get a particular colour, rather than just aimlessly playing around with different values until you get the desired colour fade you want (which takes some time for me!)

Cheers
Jeff

A Colour Palette For Colour Matching
I'm new to actionscript and trying to creating a pretty simple colour palette which can let users to choose up to 8 different colours. First of all users will be presented with a range of different shades, and each time they choose a colour it can be saved to a movie clip, so finally they will have all 8 movie clips showing all the colours they've chosen.

The way I do is create a movie clip that contain all the colour shades in the palette in different frames. Then make 8 copies of it and give them different instance names. When the user come to select a colour then the movie clip will change to that colour, keep it, then the other colour will go to the second movie clip... and so on... I've tried different ways to simulate the saving function but it still doesn't work (one of them is using if / else statement on the button and declare different Number value on the movie clips)

Pls bare with me if my explaination is not clear... but any help will be greatly appreciated!! Pls tell me if you got idea how to do it or any similar work that you've done. I can also email / msn the file if you wanna have a look. Thanks in advance!! vinkc@hotmail.com

Colour Changes By Day
Hello all,

I'm new to the forum - thanks in advance for any help.

I have an idea, but so far that's all it is.

I'd like to have a flash animation, with my logo, a small animation and...

I'd like the background of the flash file to change depending on what day of the week it is.

E.G.

array
If today = Monday, background colour = blue;
" " = Tuesday, background colour = green....

and so on.

Any help is much appreicated.

After that, I'd like to do the same with Javascript, but thats for another section.

Colour Problem
Hi,

Could you please help.....

I have assigned a hex color to a variable and fed this to a
movie clip using new color (variable) and then setrgb etc.

This changes the color of my mc but all i want to change is the Fill color or background not any text or other stuff on the same instance. Is this possible without having to layer all of my text etc....

The code used is as follows on an instance of change ........

onClipEvent (load) {
ToColour = new Color(change);
ToColour.setRGB(0x003399);
}

I Need A Ttraparent Like Colour
I was looking a movie done by some one else. In it he created a button that had a dotted like transparent colour. I know he did not add any effects to it because it woul showed up when I look at the effects added to the instance.

When you place it over another instance it looks like it changed colour. It is kind of hard to explain. I am willing email a copy of the instance if you guys do not understand what I am saying.

How can I get that!!!

Nice Colour..
was wondering if anyone knew how to make a MC change colour
dynamically? say from white to orange, when the user rolls over it and back to white again when the users rolls off it.

have done it using setRGB but i would rather have it so it eases in and out... my code is this...

Code:
onClipEvent(load){
buttonColor = new Color (this);

}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.myColor5) {
buttonColor.setRGB(0xFF3300);
}else .. . . ... blah blah..

any help would be rewarded with one of those toys you get in a kinder egg... on joking..

thanks..

Colour Picker
Hi

While trying to sort out a car colour picker I stumbled on to this example (that is attached) and I was wandering how would be this converted to work on any level , like for example if I placed these frames into another movie instance - empty clip called "car". The problem seems to be with the sliders , is that to do with "this" used to refference the sliders ? Um if anyone understands the concept please let me know. Also would anyone know how they created the car so it looks like it's out of glass and it's easy to manipulate it's colour.

How Am I Going To Do This? (colour Control)
Hello all, well here is my problem...

so try to keep up as im not very good at explaining...

imagin a background colour (blue). through the middle is the navgation (a row of buttons)

each button goes to a different section on the site whch is represented by a colour.

the animation i want is...

when a button is clicked, a colour block (the colour of that section) drops down from the button then expands to fill the bottom half of the page in that colour...

then when the next button is clicked, the same thing happends on top of the previouse colour. get it??

my prob is..

if i do the animation by key framing, then if have it goes back in the time line
say going from a contact page to home then the backround colour jumps back to what the previous colour for that section was, what i wanted to happen was from the colour to drop down in the block (over the top of that section) then expand to fill like before.

I was thinking about loading in swf's on top of each other but it would knock out the previous level (colour) before the new one had animated.

so im guessing either i animate everything for each button (so each combination is animated, very long winded) or there was some guru action scripter out there who could help me.

HHHHEEEELLLPP!!!

thanks guys, if you need any further explaination then just ask

sorry for any spelling mistakes as im not gonna re read this to check...submitting now!

edit, i did check in the end as what i had wrote didnt make sense

How To Set Background Colour?
I have 10 buttons for changing the background colour of a movieclip. Movie clip is a square with linear gradient. When I click 10th button I want to have the movieclip retain its original linear gradient colour, but right now it turns to some solid colour even though I have mentioned the RGB value of the linear gradient.

On the button I have
on (press) {
colour.text="#A0C4EB";
}

On the frame of the main timeline I have
myColor = new Color(colour);
c1.onRelease = function() {
myColor.setRGB(0xA0C4EB);

Is this right?

Passing Colour From XML
Not had much luck with my previous XML problems so far. Hope someone can help with this one:

I'm trying to create a textField for each of my xml items, get the colour value from the xml file for each item, convert the colour value from #000000 to 0x000000 format, assign the converted value to it's relevant colour textField, and use that value to change the colour of a banner, when I call for it.

Seems that the colour value is not being passed (thus always returns as black). This is what I've got:
code: for (i=0; i<imagesTotal; i++) {

picHolder = this.firstChild.childNodes[i];
thumbHolder = thumbnails.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail"+i, i);

...

thumbHolder.title = picHolder.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbHolder.detail = picHolder.childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbHolder.colour = picHolder.childNodes[4].firstChild.nodeValue;

/* Create textfield with colour value. */
_root.createTextField("colour"+i, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);

/* Convert #Color to 0xColor. */
vCol = new String (thumbHolder.colour);
ColStr = vCol.slice(1, vCol.length);
_root["colour" + i].text = "0x" + Number (ColStr);

thumbHolder.image = picHolder.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbLoader = thumbHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail_image" +i, i);
thumbLoader.loadMovie(picHolder.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue);

...

thumbHolder.onRelease = function() {

_level0.variables.currentImage = this;
vImage = new String (_level0.variables.currentImage);
_level0.ImgStr = Number (vImage.slice(28, vImage.length));

...

Newcol = new Color(_level0.banner);
Newcol.setRGB(new String (_root["colour" + _level0.ImgStr].text));

};

}

Your help would be much appreciated.
