Using Non Web Colors


I was wondering what would happen if I don't use "web colors" for my vector graphic in the flash movies, what would happen if someone's monitor has only 256 colors? Is it up to the internet browser or the monitor, how many colors does the browser contain anyways.

thanks.

Flash Colors Vs. HTML Colors
I'm having a issue with the colors on a client site we created matching up. I think this is a pretty unique problem. Here is the url: URL I created the flash to appear as if it was under the swoosh, but to give the masking effect of the images are appearing from under the swoosh I had to include part of the swoosh in my flash movie. By doing that I have a color issuse on monitors using 16 bit color. My boss is getting on my case to try and find an answer for this problem and he is the type that doesn't take no for an answer. He wants it fixed and that's the way it is! If anyone could ge me an advice that would be greatly appreciated!

Colors In JPG And Colors In Flash
Hi, I recently made a website and I have images that I want to transfer seemlessly from JPG to Flash. My website is http://www.Sergprotector.com/2. However you will notice that the JPGs along the borders are not the same as the flash image. Is there any way I can avoid this? Flash blunder? Thanks

How To Get The Inbetween Colors Between Two Colors?
Howdy...

I was just wondering if anybody know effective ways to get the inbetween values between two color values... I am trying to create a function that changes the backgroundColor of the text field from one color to another, for example...

For example, 0x000000 and 0xFFFFFF... Say I want 4 inbetween colors... Then it will be 0x333333, 0x666666, 0x999999, 0xCCCCCC, right???

What about 0xFF0000 and 0x0000FF??? Or, what about 0x000000 and 0x0000FF??? What would be the logic behind it??? I just can't get my brain working... What would be the logic behind it???

Help Colors
HI

I'm not too familiar with the swatches that come with Flash, I went to a page on the net where this company took their time to put together a websafe palette organized by colors so is easier for designer to use.

Could you take a look to this page http://www.lynda.com/hex.html and tell me what do you think about this palette.
Tell me if you think is worth to go through all the trouble of adding color by color into a Flash swatch or if is not worth it becuase the web safe color swatch that come with flash 5 are better and if is so witch of the color palette that come witch Flash 5 should I use for the net?.

Thanks

Alex

I'm Seeing Colors
For some reason when I set the RGB of a movie clip to one color in flash and set it to the same value in actionscript (setRGB(0x000066)) the colors don't match. Could someone shed some light on this issue. I thought that maybe flash converts your colors to websafe colors but cannot do the same for colors set by actionscript at runtime but this is really just a wild guess. Thanks in advance.

Colors From XML
I am creating a shaded map and really don't want to assign colors to each country in longhand. I created a function to color my MCs.

function colorMe(obj:Object, clr:uint):void
{
var colorTransform:ColorTransform = obj.transform.colorTransform;
colorTransform.color = clr;
obj.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform;
} //end function colorMe

I store the needed color in the XML as something like <clr>0XE5ACEA<clr>.

Shouldn't this work:

var b:Number = 0;
function loadXML(e:Event):void
{
var xml = new XML(e.target.data);
var a:Number = xml.country.length();

while (b<a)
{
colorMe(xml.country[b].title,xml.country[b].color);
b = b+1;
} // end while
} // end function colorMe

Instead, I get this error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert XMLList@2ac36821 to flash.geom.ColorTransform.

I'm using hexadecimal color codes (#6699CC) to define the background color of my flash movie, and the background color of the table it sits in.

Even though both hex colors the same, the flash background is slightly lighter in color.

This makes the site look 'less-cool'... anyone know why it does this, and preferably how to fix it?

Websafe Colors
HI

I have 2 questions, the first one is about something that some one posted "I use (1px) background images in stead of background colors, when another color than websafe is needed."

Can you please tell what he means by using 1px image as a background instead of color when he is not using web safe colors?

And the second question is; If make a websafe color lighter or darker stop from being websafe?


Thanks

Changing Colors Please Help...
I have made a script that should constantly and seamlessly change color of an object. But it does not work as it should. It starts out allright but then it gets into a loop or something and it doesn't at all look good... Anyone know what is wrong with the following script?

--------------------------------------
Frame 1:
//Back is the name of the object
color = new Color(Back);
color.setRGB(random(1677215));
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Frame 2 (Label: One):
//newcolor is a local variable...
newcolor = random(16777215);
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Frame 3 (Label: Two):
if (color.getRGB() < newcolor) {
color.setRGB(get.getRGB()+1);
}
else if (color.getRGB() > newcolor) {
color.setRGB(get.getRGB()-1);
}
else if (color.getRGB() == newcolor) {
gotoAndPlay("One");
}
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Frame 4:
gotoAndPlay("Two");
--------------------------------------

I guess it has something to do with hex and dec values?! Wish one could set formatflags as in C++ ... =)

Gradient Colors?
I've seen many movies that use transparent colors in gradients, but I have no clue how to get these colors. I know how to do Effects>Transparent but how do you make colors themselves transparent? I know there are not Gifs and I just cannot figure how to make them transparent.

Colors On Mac Look Wrong
I am developing a flash movie on the mac for a cd (which will also later be used on a pc). The files I am importing are from illustrator (which were also created on the mac). When I import the illustrator files into flash - the colors look muted (even when I publish). So I converted them to objects and tried to edit the rgb on them. But according to flash the rgb values are exactly the same as they were in illustrator.

Then, to test further, I published the movie and brought it over to a pc to view. And on the pc the colors show up exactly correct.

I am using flash 4

I have no idea what is going on, any help would be really really appreciated.

Thanks

co.setRGB(c);

attachMovie("testbulle","testbulle1",0);
testbulle1.couleur(0xcbcc99);

I think there's a path mistake somewhere.
