Flash :: Gradient Color Manipulation

Selective Color Manipulation
Hello all. I've been browsing the forums looking for an answer to a curiosity of mine but to no avail. I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to do something like this with AS 2.0:

- The stage contains a text area component filled with random text
- The user wants to change some of the text color from say black to red, but only some of it
- So, much like Microsoft Word, the user highlights the section of the text they want changed and that's where my question arises...

Is there any way to tell what text in the textarea component the user has highlighted so you could change that specific section of the text's color? Not the entire thing, just what is highlighted. Is there any way to do this in AS 2.0? Thanks in advance!

Sprite Color Manipulation
Hey guys I have a question about manipulating the color of sprites.

I have a bunch of squares that I created in my document class, and I was able to change the color using colorTransform, but my problem is that I don't want the sprites children to change color too.

I noticed that If the sprite is at 0.5 alpha then the child can still be seen, but if the sprite is 100% visible then it completely covers the children.

What i'm doing is I made a bunch of small squares which Im using to make a slideshow type web page and I add arrows and text to some of the squares for buttons and what-not. I just want to be able to change the color of the squares without changing the color of the text / arrows.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

P.S. I apologize if this is a repeat question, but I looked everywhere.

Gradient Color Transformation
Ok yeah, we've all heard of changing colors, and fading things with actionscript, assuming that the object has only one color though! So! What do you do when you have a, ... I don't know a green sphere ... that has a gradient fill from green to a dirty brown green, and you want to use Actionscript to make copies of the same vector, but with a gradient that is slowly going from the green gradient to a red and dark red gradient?

I am sure it is possible by tinting the object, but I am not sure how to write the script myself ... still looking in the reference

Anyway, if you know any method(s) please post, thanks

Preloader Gradient Color
Hi all,
I am building a preloader, everything works fine.
I want to make the preloader white when it first starts and fade to....blue when its at 100%

I have no idea where to put the code, or what the code is for that matter.

If someone has a few seconds to help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you so much!

BG Gradient Color Change
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("port_bg",0);

clients.swapDepths (2)
port_bg._x = (0 - ((Stage.width - 800) / 2));
port_bg._y = (0 - ((Stage.height - 600) / 2));

var color1_mc = 0x4D7F5D;
var color2_mc = 0x223829;
var color3_mc = 0x152219;
var color4_mc = 0x0F1812;

var color1:Number = color1_mc;
var color2:Number = color2_mc;
var color3:Number = color3_mc;
var color4:Number = color4_mc;

ex = ((Stage.width / 2) - (Stage.height / 2) - 150)
var colors:Array = [color1, color2, color3, color4]; //LOCUMS
alphas = [100, 90, 80, 100];
matrix = {matrixType:"box", x:ex, y:0, w:Stage.height, h:Stage.height, r:0};

if (Stage.height < 900) {ratios = [25, 165, 255, 255];}
else {ratios = [25, 145, 220, 255];}

port_bg.lineStyle(0,0x000000,0);
port_bg.moveTo(0,0);
port_bg.beginGradientFill("radial", colors, alphas, ratios, matrix);
port_bg.lineTo(Stage.width,0);
port_bg.lineTo(Stage.width,Stage.height);
port_bg.lineTo(0,Stage.height);
port_bg.lineTo(0,0);
port_bg.endFill();
This is what I've done so far as a background for my liquid flash site. What I hope to do with it is for each page, I'd like to have a different set of colors for the gradient (and a smooth transition between the colors). I want it so that I can change the colors as I click the menu button for each page. I've been able to figure things out up to this point, but now I'm completely stuck.
Tried Ultrashock, tried Actionscript.org. I completely forgot about FlashKit. I sure hope someone knows how.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Color Gradient Transition
Hi,

Any thoughts why this doesn't work? What have i left out? I'd like to transition between two separate gradients each containing three colors. Something is wrong with this script i think.

ActionScript Code:
function animate(ratio) { // change the ratio position, limiting it between // 10 and 245... ratio.x += ratio.speed; if ((ratio.x>245) || (ratio.x<10)) { ratio.speed = -ratio.speed; } return ratio.x;}////// define the beginGradientFill parameters...matrix = {matrixType:"box", x:0, y:0, w:550, h:100, r:0};colors = [0x00CC66, 0xFFCC00, 0XCC3300];alphas = [100, 100, 100];ratios = [null, null, null];//// set our animated ratio points...ratio1 = {x:15, speed:.5};ratio2 = {x:240, speed:.5};ratio3 = {x:255, speed:.5};//// create our clip and give it an// onEnterFrame scripr to animate it...//_root.createEmptyMovieClip("clip", 0);clip.onEnterFrame = function() { // set new point positions ratio1.x = animate(ratio1); ratio2.x = animate(ratio2); ratio3.x = animate(ratio3); if (ratio1.x<ratio2.x<ratio3.x) { ratios = [ratio1.x, ratio2.x, ratio3.x]; } else { ratios = [ratio3.x, ratio2.x, ratio1.x]; } this.clear(); this.lineStyle(0, 0xff0000, 100); this.beginGradientFill("linear", colors, alphas, ratios, matrix); this.moveTo(0, 0); this.lineTo(550, 0); this.lineTo(550, 100); this.lineTo(0, 100); this.endFill();};

Tip For Gradient Color Changer
(Note:-Here mc means Movie Clip and AS means Action Script)

Hi,
I am Omar and today I will ask as well as tell you a tip about for making Gradient color changer.

1. First Create a mc name it "chip" and make a shape of white color.

2. Then make another mc named "main" and put your chip mc in this mc. Select Chip mc and name it in instance panel "chip"

3. Now create a new layer named DGradient in main mc. Please align the chip mc in the center. Copy the shape of chip mc and paste it on DGradient layer. select the shape and in mixer panel select radial color. For first knob it must be of white color of 0 alpha and for second it must be black with 100 aplha.

4. Drag out the main mc to the stage and just paste the script

ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
colour=new color(chip);
ColourTransform=new Object();
Delay=0;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
Delay=Delay+1;
if (Delay>=5) {
Delay=0;
Red=ColourTransform.ra=random(255);
Green=ColourTransform.ga=random(255);
Blue=ColourTransform.ba=random(255);
colour.setTransform(ColourTransform);
}
}

Please Tell me how you like it.. For Explanation of Code ,send me a PM

Use as it is name to work properly

Color Gradient Transition
Hi,

Any thoughts why this doesn't work? I'd like to have two gradients blending together very very slowly. This script doesn't seem to work though.

ActionScript:

function animate(ratio) {
// change the ratio position, limiting it between
// 10 and 245...
ratio.x += ratio.speed;
if ((ratio.x>245) || (ratio.x<10)) {
ratio.speed = -ratio.speed;
}
return ratio.x;
}
//
//
// define the beginGradientFill parameters...
matrix = {matrixType:"box", x:0, y:0, w:550, h:100, r:0};
colors = [0x00CC66, 0xFFCC00, 0XCC3300];
alphas = [100, 100, 100];
ratios = [null, null, null];
//
// set our animated ratio points...
ratio1 = {x:15, speed:.5};
ratio2 = {x:240, speed:.5};
ratio3 = {x:255, speed:.5};

//
// create our clip and give it an
// onEnterFrame scripr to animate it...
//
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("clip", 0);
clip.onEnterFrame = function() {
// set new point positions
ratio1.x = animate(ratio1);
ratio2.x = animate(ratio2);
ratio3.x = animate(ratio3);
if (ratio1.x<ratio2.x<ratio3.x) {
ratios = [ratio1.x, ratio2.x, ratio3.x];
} else {
ratios = [ratio3.x, ratio2.x, ratio1.x];
}
this.clear();
this.lineStyle(0, 0xff0000, 100);
this.beginGradientFill("linear", colors, alphas, ratios, matrix);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(550, 0);
this.lineTo(550, 100);
this.lineTo(0, 100);
this.endFill();
};

Gradient Drawing API Color Picker
Hey,
Here is some code that I just thought I would share. Just paste it into a 550 x 125 pixel movie and it should work fine. Its all code driven and there are no "real" movieclips in it. Any suggestions would be appreciated on how to make it better.
Whats wrong with it? The only thing I could see is that the color doesn't exactly match up with the color the mouse is over. If anyone has any good ideas for that please pass it along. One thing I'd like to do is dynamically generate the colors array based on the distance of the mouseover gradient bar and color spectrum that are needed. Anyway, hope you enjoy.

Code:

//extend the movieclip class so its easier to set the RGB value of a clip - thanks to Robert Penner for this one.
MovieClip.prototype.setRGB = function(colorValue) {
new Color(this).setRGB(colorValue);
}

// create an empty clip to draw to
gradient_mc = createEmptyMovieClip("gradient", 4);
box_mc = createEmptyMovieClip("box", 3);

function drawGrad() {
gradient_mc.clear();
// define 6 colors
colors = [0xFF0000, 0xFFFF00, 0x00FF00, 0x00FFFF, 0x0000FF, 0xFF00FF];
// all of the colors should be opaque
alphas = [100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100];
ratios = [0x0, 0x33, 0x66, 0x99, 0xCC, 0xFF];
// this takes the mouse position and gets the angle from the
// middle of the gradient as radians.
angle = 0;
// this is our matrix
matrix = {matrixType:"box", x:50, y:50, w:500, h:500, r:angle};
// put all that together in the beginGradientFill
gradient_mc.beginGradientFill("linear", colors, alphas, ratios, matrix);
// draw the bounding box
gradient_mc.lineStyle(1, 0xffffff, 100);
gradient_mc.moveTo(50, 50);
gradient_mc.lineTo(500, 50);
gradient_mc.lineTo(500, 65);
gradient_mc.lineTo(50, 65);
gradient_mc.lineTo(50, 50);
// close up the fill
gradient_mc.endFill();

updateAfterEvent();
}

function drawBox() {

//box_mc.lineStyle(1, 0xFFFFFF, 100); // we dont want an outline.
box_mc.beginFill(0x333333, 100);
box_mc.moveTo(0,0);
box_mc.lineTo(550, 0);
box_mc.lineTo(550, 125);
box_mc.lineTo(0, 125);
box_mc.lineTo(0,0);
box_mc.endFill();
}

function changeBackground() {

var colors = new Array("FF0000", "FF1100", "FF2200","FF3300","FF4400","FF5500","FF6600","FF7700","FF8800","FF9900","FFAA00","FFBB00","FFCC00","FFDD00","FFEE00","FFFF00", "EEFF00","DDFF00","CCFF00","BBFF00","AAFF00","99FF00","88FF00","77FF00","66FF00","55FF00","44FF00","33FF00","22FF00","11FF00","00FF00", "00FF11","00FF22","00FF33","00FF44","00FF55","00FF66","00FF77","00FF88","00FF99","00FFAA","00FFBB","00FFCC","00FFDD","00FFEE","00FFFF", "00EEFF","00DDFF","00CCFF","00BBFF","00AAFF","0099FF","0088FF","0077FF","0066FF","0055FF","0044FF","0033FF","0022FF","0011FF","0000FF", "1100FF","2200FF","3300FF","4400FF","5500FF","6600FF","7700FF","8800FF","9900FF","AA00FF","BB00FF","CC00FF","DD00FF","EE00FF","FF00FF");
//50 is the offset from the left edge of the movie to where the gradient bar begins. I derived 6 by dividing 450 (length of the gradient bar) by the length of the array, to distribute the color spectrum evenly. Obviously its not perfect but still looks cool.
if (Math.floor(_root._xmouse - 50) % 6 == 0) {
box_mc.setRGB("0x"+ colors[Math.floor(_root._xmouse - 50)/6]);
}

}

// call the functions
drawGrad();
drawBox();

gradient_mc.onRollOver = function() {
mouseOver = true;
changeBackground();
}

gradient_mc.onRollOut = function() {
mouseOver = false;
box_mc.setRGB("0x333333");
}

gradient_mc.onMouseMove = function() {
if (mouseOver) {
changeBackground();
}

Applying A Gradient Color Without A Form
Imagine a whant to do a spinning sphere. To do that I use a normal Oval form but then i whant to apply a gradient that goes from the inside left to the inside rigth of the sphere.......ok!
To have the effect i aplly a tweening motion to the gradient ( and an APLHA increasing and decreasing gradient)............. it´s like the reflection of a ligth that goes from left to rigth on the sphere.
The problem is:

i only can aplly a gradient color ( this gradient is like a ligth) to a form ( is that true?)
if so, when the gradient appear all is movement , the borders of the form were the gradient exist will be over the inside of the sfere , and that gives me a image (were the gradient is) over the sphere!!!!! (like 2 different images one over the other)

Is there a way to aplly just a gradient ( without a form ) witch can be like smood ON the sphere while it´s in motion, and giving us the inpression that the sphere is speening?

Thanks

Dynamic Color With Gradient Fill
Hi there,
I'm trying to figure out how to use dynamic colors within a gradient fill. This borrowed script works fine with hex colours, however when I use a dynamic field in there it doesn't take (line 2). It seems to not like the square brackets -the line style (a few lines down), has no problem taking the dynamic field. Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks

fillType = "linear";
colors = [_root.rollcolour,0x0000FF, 0x0000FF];
alphas = [75, 100, 25];
ratios = [50, 100, 200];
matrix = {matrixType:"box", x:200, y:150, w:150, h:100, r:0/180*Math.PI};
_root.lineStyle(0, _root.rollcolour, 100);
_root.beginGradientFill(fillType, colors, alphas, ratios, matrix);
_root.moveTo(200, 100);
_root.lineTo(350, 100);
_root.lineTo(350, 200);
_root.lineTo(200, 200);
_root.lineTo(200, 100);

Color Banding On A Large Gradient, How To Fix?
I am trying to get a nice clean simple gradient going accross my mc. Using this code:

Code:
var fillType:String = GradientType.LINEAR;
// Orange var colors:Array = [0xde892e, 0x9b560c];
var colors:Array = [0x263a3c, 0x1d2223];
var alphas:Array = [100, 100];
var ratios:Array = [0x00, 0xFF];
var matr:Matrix = new Matrix();
matr.createGradientBox(this.stage.stageWidth, this.stage.stageWidth, 1, 0, 0);
var spreadMethod:String = SpreadMethod.PAD;
this.graphics.beginGradientFill(fillType, colors, alphas, ratios, matr, spreadMethod);
this.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, this.stage.stageWidth, this.stage.stageHeight);
this.graphics.endFill();
It works fine, except it causes huge banding on a large canvas. It looks fine when i shrink the movie down so it compresses the bands.

So my question is simple, how can i reduce the banding? Is it simply because there are a limited number of colors in the hex color range? So when colors are close to each other, and spread cross a large area, there is no find gradient between the two? Because it looks fine if i go froma very light color to a very dark color.. but then it defeats the color range i want.

Read Color Gradient Informations?
Hi,

is it possible to read out the informations of a gradient fill from an existing movieclip (fillType:String, colors:Array, alphas:Array, ratios:Array, matrix:Object, [spreadMethod:String], [interpolationMethod:String], [focalPointRatio:Number]) ?

Thanks.

How Do I Delete The Gradient Color Tabs?
In the Color Mixer window while Linear fill or Radial fill is selected, a long, thin, horizontal gradient preview shows what your current gradient looks like. Upon this preview are sliders you can use to mix up your gradient, and add more colors.

How do I delete/remove these so that I can get rid of superfluous tabs and be left with only the original two?

Gradient Color Display Problems
Hello all,

My problem deals with the gradient colors and how they won't display correctly, or not at all. Here's my website:
http://lynnandjanuel.com (a work in progress, of course)

When you click on the different buttons it brings you to different screens. Each of those screens has different gradients behind the text. Now, when I edit those gradients in flash, they are displayed smoothly, with so much gradient-goodness. But, when I publish and upload the .fla, the gradients seem choppy on the display, and some have bizarre lines running through them. I want them to be sharp and smooth, like in the edit mode.
Can this be corrected in the Publish settings? Or is it a problem of computer performance, too many layers or too much data in the .swf, or all of the above? I do have a lot of garbage in the .fla that I haven't gotten around to deleting yet, but I'm not sure that would be the problem.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

i cud fetch the value from the text file & cud make the movieclip play dynamically according to the value but dont know how to change the bg color gradient.the problem is that we have objects in the movieclip and that shud not be changed & only the bg layer's color shud be changed. plzz help me come out of this problem

Color Fade Into Background Image (using A Gradient), Who Knows How
I have an image of a house that I want the color blue to 'fade' into the house.
In photoshop, I would do this using the eraser tool, and just erase using the background eraser tool.
In flash mx, since the image of the house is a symbol, I cant exactly use the method of erasing,or can I
I would assume I would have to use the gradient tool and go from the blue color to the background color (which the background would be the image of the house )

How would I do this .
Post back if this is not clear.

Thanks

Gradient Color Values Stored In Arrays ?
Hi,
A question about setting colors when using the mx drawing api.
I want to fill an array with color values with a script. I have no idea how ... maybe something like.???

col = the base color;
incr = the gradient increment.

colorArray=new Array();
for(j=0;j<100;j++){
colorArray[j]=col+=incr;
}

If I wanted to fill an array with color values from say blue to black how do I do this??

Color Differences Between Flash & Bg (photoshop) Gradient
I tried searching the forum for this one and came up with nothing. I used a gradient in photoshop for the background for a site i am building, my nav is in flash and i took the hex color value of the background from the top of the nav and the hex color value of the background from the bottom of the nav in the gradient so that my background in flash would match the design, however, when i put them together in dreamweaver, the background colors are off.

are colors rendered differently between flash and photoshop? is there any way to fix this aside from trial and error?

From Gradient Dynamic Text, To Gradient Dynamic Image.
Earlier I had a huge struggle getting to be able to place a gradient on Dynamic text, where the text is entered using Action Script. I figured it out though. Now I am wanting to place a gradient fade on a Dynamic Image, using loadMovie.

Here is the code I used for Dynamic Text Gradient

Code:
OS.text_mc.dtext.text ="woot"
OS.mask_mc.setMask(OS.text_mc);
I tried to change it to loadMovie, and place a jpg image into the same folder as the .swf but it isnt gradienting. I get the image, just no gradient. Some help would be much appreciated.

Here is the FLA to the Dynamic Text Gradient:

How Is This Txt Manipulation Done?
Hello,

I need some help please!

I am working on a project where the user picks a font, types a message and can manipulate the text once added. I have searched all over for clues on how this is done with no luck.

I am attaching a .jpg of a site that has something similar that I need to do for reference, and here is the link http:// www.designAShirt.com.

Any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

XML Manipulation
Hi,

Can anyone tell me how I would go about using E4X XML processing to return the elements labelled "//this" below. I have tried using things like conditions.descendants() which will return the greater and lessThan elements, but that ignores the equalityCondition elements.

Is there some easy solution I am over looking?

Code:
<conditions>
<equalityCondition questionID="id5" response="1" /> // this
<andGroup> // not this
<greaterThanCondition quesitonID="id6" response="-1" /> // this
<lessThanCondition quesitonID="id3" response="2" /> // this
</andGroup> // not this
</conditions>

Thanks in advance

OT: XML Manipulation
This is a bit off topic, but not entirely un-Flash related. I'm doing some on-line training that has some questions at the end. I'm converting a course made by somebody else into our system. The existing questions are in an XML format and have various attributes and such that we don't use. Additionally for example their code marks the correct answer with a "1" and we use "true" etc.

I'm hoping to find some kind of tool for manipulating XML in an easy way. Anybody have any tips?
