Text Color And Background Color Setting Dynamically

[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.

Setting The Color Of Multiple MCs Using One Color Object
Hiya I am making a movie that has to be published to Flash Player 6 and want to set a bunch of movie clips to have the same color. Here is my function:

ActionScript Code:
var fillObjs_ar:Array = [square_mc, circle_mc];function colours(array:Array, color) { for (i=0; i<array.length; i++) { var my_color:Color = new Color(array[i]); my_color.setRGB(0x+color); }}colours(fillObjs_ar, FF0000);

My problem is that I get the error message:
"Hexadecimal digits expected after 0x" referring to the 4th line of my function.
If anyone could help me out it would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Color Object- Get Color Name?
Hello,

I made a color picker and I was wondering if the color object had any way of grabbing the actual color name?

I know I could put all the colors into an array and call them up as needed... I've done the same thing in C#... and the color object in C# has a color name feature, I was wondering if Flash's color object had the same deal.

Background Color
Hello again, I have changed my background colors before and no problems, but now when I change my background color to a darker or any other color it does not work online. I change color and it works when I test, but after I upload, nothing. It stays the same. I can not even change it to black. It works fine until I upload and look at the live mc and it is still the same color.

Background-color <p>
hey,

I'm importing text with loadvars, and using a textfield with htmlText.
I was wandering if it is possible to style it, but also style it with different backgroundcolors.

for example: I want the first <p> to have a yellow background, and the next one to have a white.
As far as I know flash doesn't support a style-tag background-color... but maybe anyone here knows something?

Or maybe I have to simulate it with movieclips...?

Background Color In AS
hi, does anyone know how to set background color property of the whole movie using only AS?

[F8] Background Color
Is it possible to change the background color of a flash application using actionscript? The thing is, I have made a game with quiet a lot of menus/submenus, and when you enter a specific cheat-code, it changes the cursor to yellow.

So, is it possible to change the default background color using actionscript?
Thanks in advance!

Background Color From AS?
I cant find good informations about changing flash background color from AS. I know that there are few different solutions - like loading "background sprite or mc".
Is it possible that there is no way for changing background color "directly" from AS?
As you see I'm new with flash so sorry if my questions are not as much ''clever'' as others! .

Help With Background Color
Posting this for a second time -

If I change the background color of my document, I can't see it, nor can I see the different fill colors of any symbols I add to Scene 1. The colors show fine when I run the movie. It is using the outline color to display all the objects on the work area whether I am in outline mode or not. I don't know what I did, but I could not find a menu item to turn it off.

Thanks for your help.

Getting Background Color
How can i get the background color from an external swf file? (or even from the main swf file)
I'm loading the external swf with:

moviecontainer = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("moviecontainer", 10);
moviecontainer.loadMovie("pacman.swf",0);

I tried to do get the background color of pacman.swf with moviecontainer.backgroundColor, moviecontainer._root.opaqueBackground, moviecontainer._root.backgroundColor and moviecontainer._root.background. All of these returned 'undefined'.

Does anyone know how to get the background color of this external swf file, or even how to get the background color of the main swf file (which contains this script)?

Background Color
I would like to change the background color of a movie by ActionScript. I would rather not put a "fake" background in as a symbol and change it's color. Is it possible to programatically change the background color of a movie?

Background Color
Sup All —

I'm still "fairly" new to Flash/actionscript as I am growing wings and trying to get away from html. However I still intergrate my flash components into Dreamweaver and build everything out of Dreamweaver once I'm done in Flash.

However I have a simple question that I assume most of you would be able to answer.

I'm making a website for my band Kynosis. Check out www.kynosis.com fairly soon within a week, and the site will be up. Domain is there, just not he content.

Anyway :: back to my question. I have a preloader / flash checker for a splash page etc. . . .

I don't neccesarily want to detect screen size, but how do i have the image in the background—it's going to be a simple horizontal wash of black and white with the logo in the middle. 50% white on bottom and black on top. I want to this fill the entire window when one is looking at it, but want it to be able to be viewed nicely at 800x600 / 1024x768 / 1600x1200 etc ... i don't want to have the horizontal window bars on the bottom scroll, but just have the background wash exist to whatever window size the user has.

If anybody knows of how to correct this or any suggestions, all would be appreciated.

Thank you

A Little Help With Background Color
Hello guys, I'm new here.

I was wondering, how could I change the background color in different scenes ? I tried changing through the document properties window (Where you could set your resolution, frame rate, background color etc), and the other scenes were all set at the same background color.

Is there a way to change this ?
Or perhaps should I create a rectangle on a single layer and lock it and apply the color I need ? Or perhaps thru AS ?

I hope to receive a favourable reply. Thanks.

Background Color
I have an embedded flash piece in an html page. The page is tan and the background of the embedded flash is tan. When the frame loads however, for a second the area of the flash is white before it fills in with color. It's just a short flash piece and only takes a second to load. Is there any way to prevent second of white showing up before the frame loads?

Maybe I have to put in a loader even though it's so small but I don't think that will solve the problem.

Thanks...

Movie Background Color
Hi

I´m creating a presentation in flashMX and I want different background color for different sections of the presentation. I realize that you only can have one background color for each movie, so I created several movies and loaded them in using loadMovie. But, it seems that adapt the color of the first movie. Is it at all possible to have different background colors?

Any ideas?

Random Color In Background
I have a Website built in MX with two basic colors in the background. I want to add a script that changes the two background colors on site randomly. The catch is that I have certian colors that I want displayed together. For example, blue and green are used together then pink and yellow and orange and blue. How could these colors switch based on every visit to the site, but remember it can't just be any random color it has to come from a set that I specify (blue/green, pink/yellow, orange/blue, etc.).

Thanks

Printing Without Background Color
Ok, I'm trying to print a movie that lies on my main timeline...no problem. What I'm having problems with is disabling the background color. I've changed the black backgound to white and I've added a black box directly over the white background. The html page that my Flash movie sits on has a black background, yet I've changed this and it has produced the same black background. The Flash movie works flawlessly when I test it in Flash, I'm only having problems when I try to execute it from the web.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance!
