I have a number of graphical called "Arms1", "Arm".... "ArmsN".I would like to change the colour of all the objects.I have a _global.armColour variable that I would like to access and all the graphics to change to that colour.How do I great a for loop to create N number of these:
armsColor = new Color(_root.ArmsN);
and set N number of these.
armsColorN.setRGB(0x000099);
N = say 10.

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 am parsing colour codes that I get from a Flex(Flash ActionScript) application, then creating HTML div elements with that same colour. My Problem: The colours are all only 8 digits long. So they cant be RGB colour values can they? What color value format are they in? If I can figure the format they are in I can convert them to RGB. Maybe the last/first digit signifies its 0. alpha value?
PS: Should I convert the colours to RGB or something else?
This is an example of the colour code values I getting from the flash application:
I've got two functions running that change the colour of certain objects within my stage. I'm wondering if I can combine them into one which would half the code (and eventually quarter the code because I'm planning on adding two more colours).

View 1 RepliesI want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it. I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes. so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.
View 3 RepliesMy Text Format is not changing colour or size, despite me telling it to do so with the following code. it displays the number of steps taken (a number called Steps) to complete the level in my flash game.
ActionScript Code:
var myFont:TextFormat = new TextFormat;
myFont.font = "Ariel";
myFont.color = 0xCCCCCC;
[Code]....
It displays the box the correct size (height and width), position and number inside, but the text font is still black and small size.
I want to use flash's gui to do some tweens, creating line black and white drawings (which I know how to do).
NOW THE CHALLENGE:
I now want to be able to extract/infer from the stage which pixels are black and which are white (and fill up a array).
I have two lines of inquiry;
1. Convert the vectors created by the tweens into a "bitmapdata" and then use the getPixel() method to reference the pixels. - This would be great for me (if I could do this on a frame by frame basis), but I do not know how to convert the tween created vector into a bitmapdata object
2. Do some magic and be able to know what vector lines are on the stage, including their position, length etc.
I have this code in a function to change the colour of a mc called Tab1. It works fine. But when the mc is tweened it doesn't move. If I don't change it's colour with this function it tweens fine. What have I done wrong?

View 8 RepliesThe goal is to have a link to a url, that changes colour when you roll the mouse over it. I'd rather it wasn't a btn as there are a lot of links similar and it would be very time consuming to change them all to symbols and stuff. I'm using flash CS4 [AS2]. Currently, I have a dynamic text box on the stage and a link in the link box. ***please see attatched screenshot*** Please can someone send over some AS2 script that I can use to change the colour of the text on mouseover?

I have an array newArray=["bird","dog","fish"] and I want to change colour of an object, so I use:
var myColor:ColorTransform = this[newArray[0]].transform.colorTransform;
myColor.color = 0xFF0000;
this[newArray[0]].transform.colorTransform = myColor;
which causes an error. if I change the array to newArray=[bird,dog,fish] without the commas it works
var myColor:ColorTransform = [newArray[0].transform.colorTransform;
myColor.color = 0xFF0000;
newArray[0].transform.colorTransform = myColor;
Why can't it read the string, I don't really want to create a new array without the commas
I've got a function in the class of my game pieces that changes the pieces colour determined on the value given to it when it is created:
new Piece(x, y, type, Colour, angle)
the function is like this:
ActionScript Code:
private function changeColour(newColour:uint) {
var colourTransform:ColorTransform = transform.colorTransform;
[Code]....
How would I go about only changing the colour of one layer within the movieclip? I know it has to be converted to a movieclip but I'm not sure how to do that with the way that my code for changing the colour of the pieces works.
does anyone know how to change the color of the text following the mouse?[code]
View 1 RepliesCurrently I've created a file where using actionscript I can change the colours on the screen on the fly. I've hooked it up through a control panel I have added to the screen. The problem I am having is that when I attempt to do this to an animated graphic, the colour changes but the animation sequence then stops at the point I make the request to change colour.
Is there any way to pass the variable over and not have it stop the animation sequence?
I have a simple( i think!!) problem: I have up to 10 buttons that load jpgs to an empty movie clip. What I want is to change the colour of the button you press, so you know what picture you are seeing. And when you press a new one, this one changes colour, and the last one goes back to the first colour state

View 2 RepliesI 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 got this code from Kax. This allows me to change colour of my background.

View 7 RepliesI've got a background behind the text that changes colour once the mouse is rolled over. However I'm trying to get the text to change colour at the same time. The text box is slightly smaller than the background box for the time being. When I put my most over the box it changes colou rto red as expected. However, when I roll my mouse over the text box, it turns completely white. This again is expected, but not what I want. This is happening because the text is turning white as its supposed to, and the background is as well when the mouse is taken off. The about text is a button, and its default rollover state is making the background turn white as it rolls over the text layer. Is there some way prioritize the background? What needs to be changed in the code? Also the drop shadow turns off when I put my mouse over them the first time and I m not quite sure why...Here's my AS code:
