ActionScript 2.0 :: Changing Background Colour Of Opened Window?
Jul 6, 2007
I've used script -[URL] to open a centralised window on the release of a button. It works brilliantly but how to change the background colour of the opened window to black. I'm no programmer so don't really have much of a grasp of Action or Java script but having looked on the web, I think what I need to do is use document.bgColour('#000000') somewhere in the script but have no idea where to put it or even if it's right!

I want to make the colour of my browser to change when my swf reaches a certain frame in the time line.
In my flash project I have placed the following actionscript in one of the frames.
ActionScript Code:
getURL("JavaScript:changeBgColor('#000000')")
and I want place the following javascript in my HTML file:
ActionScript Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function changeBgColor(newBgColor) {
if (window.document && window.document.bgColor) {
[Code].....
but I don't know where in my HTML file to place it as there is alot of Java I don't understand. I have tried to place it in myself but it won't work. The HTML file I wanna place the Java into, is attached.

I created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]

I have buttons that load SWF files. when i test the SWF they have a solid background. However, if i use a button to open the swf they have transparent/no background, yet you can still see the contents of the swf.
How do i get the SWF to have a solid background when opened by buttons?

I have a webpage (popup) with flash content. When a user clicks a button inside the flash content, it opens up another browser popup window. Next, I need to close the window with flash content from the newly opened popup window through javascript.
The problem is that the window.Opener is null as the popup is invoked inside from flash content. Moreover we dont have access to flash (.FLA) file.

I am trying to automatically change the colour of an MC when it comes into play and am having a few problem. I used the code I found in the Flash AS Help, but it's not working.
Here's what I used:
myColor = new Color(rollover);
myColor = setRGB(0x993366);
Rollover is the instance of the MC I want to target.

Basically, I want to change the colour of a component in my fla file that is called 'EDL Arrow' using Actionscript
'EDL Arrow' is a Movieclip and is part of another movileclip called 'EDLClipDisplay' - which exports to my actionscript file: 'Export: CIS.FLVPlayer.EDLClipDisplay'
How can I change the colour of the component 'EDL Arrow' from the actionscript file 'EDLClipDisplay'
I understand how to do colorTransforms but I just don't understand how to connect this component 'EDL Arrow' with my Actionscript file.

I'm working on a game at the moment, and I'm running into a problem. I was testing the vector files that I export of the art I made, and upon re-importation to flash the colours have changed significantly. Then, when the game is running in a browser, it looks different again. It even looks different between different browsers.

should be simple anyway . I'm using flash CS5 but have continued using AS2 because that is what I know how to use. Im trying to change the colour of a Dynamic text field in which the string is constantly changing. I am trying to use the code:
Code:
_root.textField1.textColor = 0xFF0000;to get change it from white to red, but it does not work. I am thinking it is maybe because in CS5 you have to embed fonts (I dont know how to do this!). If this is the case is there an easy way to embed a whole font with all colours etc?

I have this piece of actionscript working
Code:
var my_color = new Color("mymc");
my_color.setRGB(0xFF0000);
This works when I call the actionscript say from a button on the same timeline as the movieclip. What I can't get my head round is how I change the colour of an object on a different timeline, say if the path to the movieclip was _root.mc1.mc2.mymc

I made a website a year back or so and I'm having to update it now. However I've noticed the flash menu I have on the site doesn't seem to appear correctly anymore when I check in on a PC using IE.
Basically in the bottom left hand corner the swf background colour should appear grey (#333333) not white. Seems to work fine on Safari and Firefox.

This is probably easy, but I'm an AS3 noob and google is returning every result under the sun apart from the ones I want. Is there a way to set the background colour of a flash movie according to a value pulled from an XML file?I already have the background colour property set as BGCOLOUR within my XML file, and I've used the code in line six to pull that value through (I think)...
ActionScript Code:
function processXML(e:Event):void {
var my_xml:XML=new XML(e.target.data);
my_speed=my_xml.@SPEED;
my_images=my_xml.IMAGE;
[code].....
Since adding the sixth line of code in the section above, it's broken the project, so I've had to remove that line.

I finaly got the code I needed to change the colour of my background but it clearly needs altering. At the moment it works but I have to click the button twice for the colour to change. Now for once I see that this makes sense because I have onRelease twice!
This code is on the button:
on (release) {
home_btn.onRelease = function() {
var myColor:Color = new Color (this._root.background1);
myColor.setRGB(0xFF8844);}
However i'm unsure how to alter the code correctly....I assume the second onRelease needs to change to something else? I tried just: home_btn = function() { but am really just guessing.

I'm trying to set the background of a createTextField(), BUT only for the lines, not the whole box.
If I use background and backgroundColor, it sets the whole text box bg to be white, but I only want the lines filled in.
For example, if you 'select' the text on an HTML page, only the lines are highlighted. Can this be done in Flash?
I'm using CS3 AS2.

I'm writing a section of code which displays a series of checkboxes on the screen, but as they are placed on a dark background the default label text colour of black is no use, as they can't been seen. When I initialise them I use the line:
checkboxArray[i].setStyle("textColor", 0xFFFFFF); to set the text colour to white, but this only seems to work when the checkboxes are disabled (checkboxArray[i].enabled = false) and reverts to black again once they are enabled. I have tried including the setStyle line of code again after they have been enabled, but this doesn't make any difference.

I'm looking for a way to change the color of the Pasteboard in Flash CS5 on a Mac.I'm talking about the Pasteboard (the blank area around the Stage).I found a shortcut that did it for CS3, but heard you can't do it in CS4 and CS5.I'm thinking surely that's a mistake because that would be absurd.

I have written code that continually adjusts the colour of a targetted movie clip using a Color object called 'myColor' and an Object called 'colTransform' to adjust the colour of a movie called 'myClip':
//creates colour object and links it to movie
myColor = new Color(myClip);
//creates object that dictates colour adjustment
colTransform = new Object();
//adjusts object
[Code]...
I could also write a loop that loops through a number of objects and applies the colour changes to each in turn but I'm looking for a simpler solution - is there a way of doing this?

I have 20 odd little swfs, each of which will be loaded into a body swf at one point or another.Each of these contains anywhere between 4 and 20 single-colour buttons. What I need is for each of them to simply change colour when rolled over/out. The naming convention is just b1,b2 etc depending on how many said buttons are in each clip.
Code:
this.i = 0;
while(this["b" + (i++)]) {[code]....

I'm trying to get AS to change the colour of several MC's - but it's not working... I wondered if anyone could please tell me where I've gone wrong? I have 5 large MC squares - when hovered/rolled over they reveal text/colour within. That part works!
What I am trying to achieve is: When rolling over 1 of the squares (i.e. sq1) to tint the colour of the other 4 squares to grey - so that the one that is hovered over is full colour, but the other 4 are greyed out. On rollout of sq1, the other 4 grey squares return to their coloured state.
I worked through the Kirupa - Changing Colours with AS tutorial, and tried to apply that to my situation, but I still can't get it to work.
