Changing Fill Color And Line Color Dynamicly And Seperately
Hi community,

In this case, I am going to load a swf with a looping animation colored in black and white only. I want to change the color of the animation dynamicly so that I could have different color at each time. Here is my code:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import flash.display.*;

private function init():void{
myCan.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,capMotion);
}
private function capMotion(event:Event):void{
var bmd1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(mySwf.width, mySwf.height, true, 0x00CCCCCC);
bmd1.draw(mySwf);

var bitmap1:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmd1);
bitmap1.x = 0;
bitmap1.name="org";
if (map.getChildByName("org") != null){
map.removeChild(map.getChildByName("org"));
}
map.addChild(bitmap1);
var bmd2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(mySwf.width, mySwf.height, true, 0xFFFFFFFF);
var pt:Point = new Point(0, 0);
var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, mySwf.width, mySwf.height);
var threshold:uint = 0xFF999999;
var color:uint = 0xFFFFFF00;
var maskColor:uint = 0x00FF0000;
bmd2.threshold(bmd1, rect, pt, ">=", threshold, color, maskColor, true);

var bmd3:BitmapData = new BitmapData(mySwf.width, mySwf.height, true, 0xFFFFFFFF);
threshold = 0xFF000000;
color = 0xFF00CCCC;
maskColor = 0xFFFFFF00;
bmd3.threshold(bmd2, rect, pt, "==", threshold, color, maskColor, true);

var bitmap2:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmd3);
bitmap2.name="dup";
bitmap2.x = bitmap1.x + bitmap1.width + 10;
if (map.getChildByName("dup") != null){
map.removeChild(map.getChildByName("dup"));
}
map.addChild(bitmap2);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Canvas id="myCan" x="10" y="10" width="650" height="603">

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

How Would I Go Changing Lots Of Movieclips Color And Border Color Seperatly?
I am in the making of a isometric level editor, and I have about 15 movie clips with more to come.
I want to let people change the color of tiles to what they want from a list of colors, so how can I let them change the color of a tile dinamicly with actionscript so that it changes a tile's color while preserving changes of "shadows"?
I mean I have let's say a cube and to make it look 3D I need to change each face to make a feeling of 3D and not a flat one.
thanks.

[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?

Changing The Color Of A MC
Ok I hope that I can explain what Im after. I would like to make the color of a MC change (Morph) to the next closest value. Like gradually changing. Not just from RED to GREEN but more like red to reder to redest to dark red and so on. I hope someone can help..

Changing The Color On MC
ok i have found a script that will change the color of the MC gradually. BUT, I want it to change the R from 0 -255 then stop and staret to change the G from 0 - 255 And so on. What I have now is setting all the VAR to change the RGB al at once. Here is the code.

onClipEvent(load) {
colorFace = new Color(this);
var cnRedStart = 50;
var cnGtreenStart = 115;
var cnBlueStart = 152;
var cnRedRange = 150;
var cnGreenRange = 116;
var cnBlueRange = 80;
var i = 0;
var ldir = 0;
_root.lPlaying = 1;
}

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
if (_root.lPlaying) {
nRedSkin = cnRedStart+(i*.01)*cnRedRange;
nGreenSkin = cnGreenStart+(i*.01)*cnGreenRange;
nBlueSkin = cnBlueStart+(i*.01)*cnBlueRange;
i = (ldir==0 ? i+1 : i-1);

colorFace.setRGB(nRedSkin<<16 | nGreenSkin<<8 | nBlueSkin);
}
}
What I want is to controll the colors one at a time not all at once.

onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
c = new Color( this );
c.setRGB( parseInt( _root.color, 16 ) );
}

what is wrong with the firs one ??? please help...

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?

Color Not Changing ?
I have this code in my main timeline

PHP Code:

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]) {
cardColor.setRGB(cardColorArray[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"];

Color Changing A MC
Okay, I have a MC (mainbox) within which I placed this code:

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
myColor = new Color(_root.mainbox)
switch (_global.colour) {
case 1:
myColor.setRGB(0xA3A3D1);
break;
case 2:
myColor.setRGB(0x8787C2);
break;
case 3:
myColor.setRGB(0x5252A0);
break;
case 4:
myColor.setRGB(0x414183);
break;
case 5:
myColor.setRGB(0xEFEFF8);
}
}

This should work out that, if i set _global.colour to different values, the color of the box changes accordingly. Now, on my navbar I have a set of buttons, that have the coding that if their x position is at a certain point, then _global.colour = (1,2,3,4,5). Firstly I had it set that as soon as you click on a button the color changes, but that's not as professional. I would like it so that only when the button is finished its animation (slides left) that the color changes.

Thanks,

Changing Color
Hi,

I've read some tutorials and checked the help of flash, but nothing seems to help.

This is my problem:
I have a movieclip "colorsquare" that just has a square in it with a certain color ( color isn't important since I want to change it ).
This movieclip acts just as the color of my background where the content is coming.
the path of the movieclip is _root -> content_frame_mc (instance: content_frame) -> colorsquare (instance: bgcolor)
so the path is _root.content_frame.bgcolor , right?? no problem here.
Since I want to use a different color for each section on my website, I put the code on my buttons of the website. My navigation-buttons are sitting in another movieclip called "nav_menu". So the path is _root -> nav_menu so it schould be _root.nav_menu . No problem there either.
So on one of the buttons I want to change the color of the 'bgcolor' with an "on(release)" event.
I used the "
kleur = new Color(bgcolor); <- and also with new Color(_root.content_frame.bgcolor)
kleur.setRGB(0xFF0000);
"
and I also used that "myColorTransform" thing. And 2 tutorials at http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Ge...-526/index.php and http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/In...-185/index.php but none of them seem to help .

Can anyone pllllzzzzeee help???

Changing MC's Color.
Hey Guys,

Alrighty, here's what im looking to do. Im currently working on an interactive designing program for some products for a client.

I have already built a class for 'objects' or 'changeable' elements. All it does at the moment is show a bounding box around the object on roll over, no biggie, what i would like to add is the ability to change the color of the element, lets say on click, a 'color picker' will roll out that i can use to change the color of the object.

So, if I build an MC, of my 'color' panel with the choices, (various colors/patterns), how would i go about filling the selected element with these?

Obviously on click of the object will bring up the colorpicker, but while click on the object i need figure out how to A) pass the correct object i am on, b)actually change the color of the passed object.

I hope this makes sense, or.. if someone has a better solution i would love to hear it! thanks!

I'm trying to get the following to work. The rotation and movement works perfectly.. but I just cant seem to get it to change the colour. Any ideas?

_parent.Arrow.targR = 180;
_parent.Arrow.setRGB = 000000

_parent.Arrow.targR = 0;
}

cR = _parent.Arrow._rotation;
cC = new Color(_parent.Arrow).setRGB;
difX = cX-_parent.Arrow.targX;
difR = cR-_parent.Arrow.targR;
difC = cC-newcolor.setRGB;
setProperty(_parent.Arrow, _x, cX-(difX/3));
setProperty(_parent.Arrow, _rotation, cR-(difR/8));
setProperty(_parent.Arrow, cC, cC-(difR/8));
}

Changing The Color
I would like to change the "shades" of a MC, not the color by bringing another MC_2 n contact with it.
Say I have ten MC_2, and I can choose any one to execute a hitTest with the MC so that the latter changes it shade gradually. Pleae advise.

Thanks

Changing Bg Color With Css?
hey there,

i'm making this animation and the background color changes a couple of times during the animation. but i know once i put it on an html page to put it online, i can only have one bg color there. so... is there a way to change the bg color of the html page while the movie is playing? i've read a little about css & flash and it seems like it only works for text so there's probably nothing i can do, but if anyone has any ideas i would appreciate it.....

thanks!

Changing The Color With If >
Hi all~!

Im new to Flash and i have a question.
I want to make something like this. I have a box and i want that it changes the color if a variable is lover than 50 or so... so here is the variable:

HP = 100;

There the code that i made.... but it does not work.. i added it to the same frame as the box

if (HP<50) {
red = new Color(DGMHPBAR);
red.setRGB(0xCC3300);
}

The problem is that it does not change the color when the Var HP is lover than 50.. i made a button which takes 10 from hp.

on (release) {
HP = HP-10;
}

Anyway i can make the HP var -999999 and it wont change the color.
But i know that the thing with the changing color works. I made a button so that when i press it it changes the color of the box and that thing works.

I think i made a mistake in the if.. HP<50 and so~

Anyway, can some one please help me?

Ps: Sorry for my mad english... :s

Changing Color?
I trying to use http://www.modifymycar.com/home.html as a part of my assignment. But its look harder than it seem for a beginner like me who just learn basic of flashmx.

There are few problem i encounter so far:
I don't know the best method to change the car's color. I cut the car out of the picture and trace it. And then tried to change its color but the whole car include the window, etc change together...Anyone know any good method?

alternative:
one of the alternative i figure out is get different color of the same car picture and simply replace them when user change the car color (ditch the color box, replace with fewer color button). But i will have more problem on changing the suspension height and rim.

There are too many problem since im not that creative enough. Can someone please give some idea on it?

I have a filter being applied to an instance of a movieclip. There are also a few buttons that I want to change the color of the filter on the mc. The filter works fine, it's just the buttons don't change its color.

However, when it is clicked it doesn't change the filter's color. Any idea on what is wrong or any additional questions?

Changing COLOR With SCRIPT
I want a mc to change it´s color on rollover

I used this script:

on (rollOver) {
blue = new Color(_root.clip);
blue.setRGB(0x006cff);

and it works fine...

I want now, to change it´s color to red ONLY if it´s already blue! (after the second rollover)

I´ve tried using a variable color like this

color ++

and then when color was 2 it would change to red...
but I don´t know how to do this

Changing MC To Pretermined Color
ok i have a question about setting the color of a MC. i have a button that 'sets' or records the color value of a MC by setting the position of sliders, the button's code is:

on (release) {
if (usegroups) {
for (var x = 0; x<controlers.length; x++) {
if (controlers[x].group == ID) {
path = (eval(controlers[x].path));
name = controlers[x].name;
eval(path).r = myColorTransform.rb;
eval(path).g = myColorTransform.gb;
eval(path).b = myColorTransform.bb;
eval(path).a = myColorTransform.ab;
}
}
} else {
eval(path).r = myColorTransform.rb;
eval(path).g = myColorTransform.gb;
eval(path).b = myColorTransform.bb;
eval(path).a = myColorTransform.ab;
}
}

ok, and i also have a button that 'gets' or applys the recorded color (and postion of sliders). here is the code for that button:

on (release) {
r.button._y = eval(path).r;
g.button._y = eval(path).g;
b.button._y = eval(path).b;
a.button._y = eval(path).a;
}

what i want to do though is simplfy this by changing the code of the 'get' button to set the MC to a predetermined color. for example, a user would click a blue button and set the MC to blue. can anyone help me out on this? i can send you a sample FLA if you like, thanks!

Color Changing By Script
good morning out there!

i have this problem and i am not getting the solution... i had to build a rotating menue witch rotates on a path. the rotation has to stop when you make a mouseover and play when you make mouseout...no problem up to that. the buttons, which are rotating have to change color when pressed, like a classic menue marker. so i layed the buttons into a movieclip so i could change color of it... but it didn´t work directly. so i made a variable (1,2,3,...for one button - one number) and a actionscript in the timeline of my rotation clip, which looks like that:

if (_root.navi.alpha eq 1) {
_root.navi.prodmarker = new Color(colorTarget);
_root.navi.designmarker.setRGB( 0xFFFFFF );
} else if (_root.navi.alpha eq 2) {
_root.navi.prodmarker._alpha = 50;
...
}
the funny thing is, the alpha works (only after one rotation) and the colorchange doesn´t.
i think it is the rotation on the path...but i still did not found the mistake...sorry if this is a stupid question.
Can sombody please help me!? :-) Marcel

PS.: i could mail the movie if needed

Changing MC Color With ActionScript?
Hello,

Anyone know how to change the RGB values of a MC using ActionScript?

thanks,

Dynamically Changing Color Of MC
Hi all,

I am applying color to a movie clip using

MCColor = new Color("/bg");
MCColor.setRGB(0x00FFFF);

It is working fine. But I want the color to be dynamic. It is coming from database. I am using the code like this :

MCColor = new Color("/bg");
MCColor.setRGB(/:color);
where the value of color is set to 0x00FFFF format.

But it is not working.

Can anyone tell me the problem. Is it something if the value is coming as a dynamic value we have to convert it to string or numeric or something of that type. I am using PHP Turbine for this purpose.

Thanks in advance...
