My Scroll Panel Looks With Less Color... Why?
Hi there:

I wonder why my control panel contain (text as example) looks softer when I run my SWF.

I changed all the "Blend options" but nothing to do with it... it must be another thing... Please help me with this ASAP, I am in a hurry about time... ! thanx a lot in advance,

Changing Scroll Bar Color
I'm sure that there is a way to do this, and I looked at the flash help, but it didn't help much for this beginner.... I am using a scrollPane component, and want to be able to make the scrollbar a different color. I know there is a default "green" color, but that actually is only showing up on the arrows anyway, not on the middle bar thingie... can anyone help?

Scroll Bar Color Settings
I did a search in the forums and found some script using some kind of hex that i don't know, but it didn't include instructions on changing the scroll bars background (the actual bar between the up and down buttons) I've tried opening the properties menu, tried click it and editing colors, and tried right clicking and clicking edit, but i can't figure it out. if u can help that would be great

Color Scroll Bars In Window
Hi, I am using the
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.my website.net/thispage.htm','newWin','width=720,height=550,left= 0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=Yes,stat us=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");
}

to open a new window for viewing.
My problem is I want to customize the scroll bar's color to match my site. Since this is an HTML page I thought that I could do it through the HTML page, but that is not working.
I thought about using the HTML code as a varible in the flash movie but again I don't see how I can write the "style" into the code. All efforts have not worked so far.
Can anyone help me?

Scroll Data And Background Color
I have a main container.

I import dynamically info to read.

Now, if this info is too long for the container, then the scroll bar to the right becomes active.

The scroll and text have about 1/2 inch margin on either side.
Main background of container is dark gray.
Background of part containing text is white.

To offset difference, an mc was created to put as the background before the text is loaded.

Code:
public function displayContent():Void
{
this.content_mc = this.attachMovie( "contentContainer", "content_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth(), { _x:37, _y:140 } );
var contentScrollbar_mc:MovieClip = this.attachMovie( "ultimateScroller", "contentScrollbar_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth(), { _x:this.content_mc._width+this.content_mc._x, _y:140 } );
contentScrollbar_mc.size = 415;
contentScrollbar_mc.scrollTarget = this.content_mc;
contentScrollbar_mc.useMask = true;
contentScrollbar_mc.scrollToTop();
this.content_mc.format = this.fonts;
}
The contentContainer is loaded, this it the white background.

Problem is, it's height is not enough if the text is too much and a lot of scrolling occurs to read. Eventually, it ends and goes back to the dark grey background.

Is there a better way to set the bg as white and not worry about loading the contentContainer?

Thanks,

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:

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.

Drag And Drop Color Swatches To Color Target
Hi there,

Need some help with this. I want to have color swatches that can be individually dragged onto a target MC and have that target MC take the color of the color swatch that has been dragged onto it. This procedure should be able to be done over and over again so a new color can replace the old one. I am working in Flash MX 6. Any help would really be appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Thanks in advance

[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?

Assign Color To New Sprite In Order Of Color Wheel?
Is there a way to know the offset from one color to the next?

For example, I would like to create Sprite Balls, and have each be assigned a new color. But, I don't want it to be completely random color. I'd like it to be in order of the color chart slightly.

So if the first color is Red lets say, the next color would be a Yellow, then Green, then Aqua, then Blue, then Magenta, and back to Red. They don't need to be the absolute color, but in the general vicinity. Is this possible to do dynamically? What would the multiplier need to be to get to the next grouping of colors?

Fill Color And Stroke Color Option Not Working...
I am a faculty member at American River College who needs a word or two on how Flash CS3 works.

Specifically, how do I get back the option to add fill color to an oval drawing that I have made in Flash CS3? It appears that I have flipped a setting that makes that seemingly simple option unavailable.

I have several other documents where I have added fill color without a problem; however, as of this morning CS3 will not allow me do add such. When I open Flash, I draw on the Stage, the outline color is usually green, no matter what color I select for as Stroke Color and Flash will not allow me to change the Fill Color. I make a selection and nothing happens (just moments ago I opted for red as the Fill Color and the Fill remains white).

Is there a setting in Flash, that a rookie like yours truly could activated by accident?

Please help.

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....

[color=indigo] How To Make A Transition In My Page ?[/color]
I saw the first picture on a web site, "http://bigspaceship.com/". He use some kind of nice transition to blend a picture to another. Does anyone know how can I achieve the same effect ?

Color.setTransform(colorTransf) >>> Color Question
These are the codes I´m using on my mc (target)

onClipEvent (load) {
color = new Color(this);
colorTransf = new Object();
colorTransf.ra = 0;
colorTransf.ga = 0;
colorTransf.ba = 0;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
Rdif += red - colorTransf.rb;
Gdif += green - colorTransf.gb;
Bdif += blue - colorTransf.bb;
colorTransf.rb += Rdif / 4;
colorTransf.gb += Gdif / 4;
colorTransf.bb += Bdif / 4;
color.setTransform(colorTransf);
}

I´m trying to understand it...

1.0 I can´t get the "new Object()" What am I doing with this???

2.0 Why I set on (load) ra; ga; ba and then on (enterFrame) I use rb; gb; bb???

3.0 What exactly does the setTransform() do?

The rest I understand well...
Hope it´s not complex for explain.

Thanks!

Dynamic Color Slider Or Color Wheel ?
can someone help, or direct me to a tuttorial on
¥ user input to adjust/select color
- must be RGB sliders, or colorwheel/color bar to choos from

I need the user to be able to change the background color of a graphic, without them knowing anythign about color.

so it would be best if they could just adjust RGB sliders or pick from a color wheel would be even bettter. . .

thanks
Darin

P.S.
I could make a bunch of buttons with a few basic predefined colors, however this would be limmiting in selection.

Matching Bg Color To Surrounding Jpeg Color
I'm putting a flash movie into a space that's surrounded by a deep blue gif color. Nothing fancy - no gradient - just a plain, old, single color that matches out to a hex value of 333399.

When I set the Flash movie's background to 333399 and place it within HTML page, the colors don't match. I've fooled around with different hex combinations in flash and have finally found a combination that matches the blue gif background almost exactly (#294099) - but man, what a hassle!

There must be a better way to match a flash movie's background to a background that it will be placed within...isn't there? Please advise if there is...

Thanks to all in advance.

Hummm...one more thought, is there a way to export a movie with a transparent background???

Matching HTML Color To Flash Color

}
else {
new Color (preco2_2_mc.preco2_mc).setRGB (parseInt (cp2, 16));
}
