I'm playing around since days with the Color.Matrix.Filter and cant get it working. The Problem is that i have to implement it to a existing project which was done by someone else.If i do it from scratch it works.COLOR TWEEN FROM GRAY TO COLORED ( Normal ) ON MOUSE ROLL OVER Existing Code ( not on Frame one of the Project, its inside a Movieclip which will be placed on frame one of the main stage / scene.

I have a movie clip representing the state of Missouri. I'm changing its fill color based on data from an xml file. I'd like its outline color to be black. I've tried applying a glow filter, but it doesn't seem to work.
View 12 RepliesI have a combo box called "jcolor1". I have a Movie Clip called "main". In my combobox I have set all of the color names in the labels section, and all of their hex values in the values section. I am trying to be able to change the color of the movie clip using actionsctipt.My actionscript I have (attached to the combobox)
on (change) {
myColor = new Color(main);
myColor.setRGB(jcolor1);
}
Its not working, I think the link between the Movie Clip and the combobox is not right, maybe I am not declaring the variable correctly.I want the combo box to reference the hex value I put into the data section in the component inspector and change "main" to that color.
this time, I have a crosshairs custom-cursor (instance name 'crosshairs') that is black, and I want it to turn red whenever it is moved over a target that the user can 'shoot' at.asically, I am figuring that I simply need to perform a hitTest on the 'target' instance and, if it is true, use setRGB to turn the 'crosshairs' instance red. However, as of right now, the crosshairs is always black, whether it is over the target or noP.S. Oh yeah, and is there any way to make the color change / onMouseDown shooting action occur only when the CENTER of the crosshairs is over the target? Y'know, for realism. Well, anyways, cheerio...

I am trying to make a flash game for a website. In the game, there is a large interactive map which I created. The map is supposed to scroll just by moving the mouse.
As a placeholder for the map, an ex-coworker created a gradient background, which moves along with the mouse. Here is the AS.
// Width and height of image
var w = Stage.width * 2;
var h = Stage.height * 2;
// Mock up graphic that will be the image

how to make the MC move and pan along with the mouse? Even if it is a completely different code?
i'm doing a school project of mine and i am having trouble doing the changing color objects. here is an axample of the script that i;m using:
on (rollOver) {
var colorful = new Color("_root.shapes");
colorful.setRGB(0x003366);
}
For this script it does change color, but how do i make it to stay the same color that user selected after going to another scene?
I have done the research a lot but failed I need to give the effect in flash like this any one know how to do that please send me any hint or peace of code so i will get
View 3 Repliesdoes anybody know a way to use a the mouse to move a movie clip in one frame without dragging? what i'm shooting for is moving a map in the opposite direction of the mouse (mouse moves left, map moves right, mouse moves up, map moves down) and continues to move. not just one jump, but real motion. i've thought of initializing a getTimer after the mouse moves past a certain point and of moving the map after the mouse rolls over a hidden mc.i have only one stopped frame to do it in. it must be action script....

[URL] i assume it's a series of frames with slightly different photos of the razor. when you play the movie it looks like it is spinning. my question is, how do they get the movie clip it to play forward when you move the mouse in one direction, and backward in the other? is it something like mouse over to the right and left (i'm bad with the direction code)??
right now i have a version that will play the movie clip (it's a button w/ only a hotspot) on mouse over and it will stop when the mouse os off the hotspot, but i can't get it to work like the headblade example. because i don't know the right code to play forward and back etc on mouse moves.
I was browsing through the AS3 help in CS3 and came across good ole Delta. I've been playing around with it and it zooms things just fine but I had an idea for a birthday card for my niece and now would like a way to have the mouse wheel do something perhaps outside of what Delta will permit. I want to move a nested movie clip to next and previous frames with the mouse wheel and until using it with delta for zooming only used it for scrolling. I got it to work but not how I'd like. Using this code I got it to go to next frame which is 1/3rd the battle:

I think I'm really close to getting my multiple choice question to work! Here's what it does:
1) Read my question, possible answers, and correct answer key from XML.
2) Print the question, 4 answers, and 4 radio buttons on the stage.
3) Clicking the submit button on the stage, checks the answer. The user gets feedback based on whether they are right or wrong.
1) When the user mouses over an answer, I want to change the text color.
Currently, only the color of the last answer is changing colors, and it's changing colors if I mouse over any of the answers.
Here's my code:
Code:
import fl.controls.RadioButton;
import fl.controls.RadioButtonGroup;
var qLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I trying to create an animation that will demonstrate the basics of steering a sailboat. There will be a movieclip top view of the boat hull. Another movie clip will be the boat tiller. One end of the the tiller will have a grip that the user will drag with the mouse. Dragging the grip will turn the tiller turn right or left on its axis. When the user drags the tiller to the left, the boat hull turns to the right, and vice versa. I can get the tiller to rotate in a circle around its axis. However, making the tiller turn no more than 15 to 20 degrees left or right, and creating an event listener that will test when the tiller is turned left or right, then turn the hull the opposite direction as a sailboat would react.

I have 30 buttons called thumb01 to thumb30. I have created this functions so when hover over and hover out of the one of the buttons it changes colour. I would like to use this for all my 30 buttons, but I dont want ot write the same code 30 times. Is there a way to for example to use wildcards so I can write thumbxx and address all the buttons.
var col:Color = new Color();
col.setTint(0xFFFFFF, 0.5);
set1_mc.thumb01_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,hoverOver);
function hooverOver(event:MouseEvent):void {
set1_mc.thumb01_btn.transform.colorTransform = col;
} set1_mc.thumb01_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,hoverOut);
function hooverOut(event:MouseEvent):void {
set1_mc.thumb01_btn.transform.colorTransform= new ColorTransform()
}
I'm trying to learn a simple way to code a button's color to change when you click on the button itself. I got the button's alpha to work by doing the following: Create a text field with the word "Preflight" and convert it to a button. Drag the button onto the stage and give it an instance name of "Preflight1". On the first frame of the timeline, insert the following code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
Preflight1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Preflight1Click);
[Code].....
Now when you test the movie, anytime you click the button "Preflight" the button's alpha drops (dims) by 10%. Works perfect and easy. Now, how can I do this exact same thing with the button's color? When you click the button, its color changes to some new color? I've tried colorTransform, but no luck.
it seems simple enough but i have no idea on how i could get a movie clip to slowly move to the coordinates of another existing movie clip
View 5 RepliesI want to create another button on the main menu of my flash site. I want to take one of the existing buttons (which are set as movie clips) and modify it to show a different menu name and page link. BUT when I go into my library and "duplicate" my movie clip, change the instance name, drag it to the stage and attempt to modify it, the original changes as well. I need to keep the original the same and create a new one with the same code, frames, etc but with different static text. I keep going in circles

I am pretty new to ActionScript 3 and Flash. I don't want my movie clip to play unless the person's mouse curser is on the movie clip for more than a second. If the person just runs their curser over the movie clips really quickly, then it should do nothing. It must be more than a second. How do I code that?
