ActionScript 2.0 :: Setting A ColorTransform For A Clip Affects Whole Movie?
Sep 27, 2007
I can't seem to get my head round why when I set the colortransform object for one clip in my movie, it seems to affect the entire movie - textboxes and everything..I thought that a colorTransform it only affected the specified and child clips in the movie.Example - I have a lot of things attached to _root.I have a particular clip which is on its own and is attached to the _root - this is my code...Code:clip.transform.colorTransform = new flash.geom.ColorTransform(0.05, 0.05, 0.05, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0);That seems to set the clip nice and dark as I want it to - but it also sets all other clips and all clips dynamically added afterwards to have the same colortransform settings... am I missing something from the CT object?

I would like to be able to change the color of more than one movie clip in the same layer in the same frame. Basically I have place two different movie clips with defined instances,i.e. body and shoulder onto the canvas in one frame on the timeline.
I have created three different buttons (red_btn, blue_btn, and yellow_btn) to use to change the color of say the body or shoulder. I would use red and blue to change the body and say yellow and green to change the shoulders. These are also on the same layer and same frame on the timeline as the movie clips.
The problem I am having is how would I declare the two movies or variables to change independantly? Would I need to place one movie clip on one layer and then place the other on a different layer so that when I press the button I want i.e. the red button, it only changes the body and not the shoulders.
Here is my actionscript that I am using to change the color of the clip(s)
[Code].....
body here is my declared variable wich is the body of a shirt that is one movie clip. When you place both clips on the timeline ontop of each other, you basically get a shirt with different color shoulders and body.
way to delcare the variables in one actionsript.

I need help applying the color transform function to a movie clip that exists inside of a button. I want to keep the button a button (as opposed to making it a movie clip as well with onclick and hover handlers) as I already have behaviors built into it and would rather not recreate it. I have the path to the object
[Code]...
Can anyone tell me how to use the colorTransform function on Movie Clips inside of buttons. Is there another way to indicate this path? I am using CS4 and actionscript 3.

I'm using flash 8 professional with AS 2. I'm trying so set a tint using actionscript on a dynamically created mc using the ColorTransform method. I'm trying to set a 50% black tint, similar to the effect one would get when doing it in the properties panel using the Color setting.
My code so far:
Code:
var colorTrans:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
colorTrans.blueOffset = -127;
colorTrans.redOffset = -127;
colorTrans.greenOffset = -127;
This is applied elsewhere in my project and is working fine. My problem is that this is pushing up the saturation of the mc's, thus all orange colors appear red etc.

i have three mc's that look like cd's Three instances of the same movie clip. they go into a player onRelease. do any of you know how to do this... if i click on a cd it looks if any other cd's are clicked. if anyof them are clicked then it tells them to gotoAndPlay (thisKeyFrame) in that cd movie clip(which would be a simple tween and will look like the cd comes back out).
i tried setting variables in the cdMovie clip like on the first frame onValue="no" but once it goes in and stops the onValue="yes". and then i had AS on each cd looking if the onValue variable is yes or no in each one of them. but for some reason it can't read it? Do you know what i should do? maybe create an object or something for each button?

I am trying to set up a if function for a hit test. I am using action script 2.0 am coding all in one layer not within movie clips so dont give me code in that format unless nececary.I have a movie clip with instance name src_resolute and I have another movie clip that is nested inside another movie clip named endbar.What I am trying to do is when src_resolute hits endbar I want it do gotoandplay the next scene.The parrent movie clip of the nested movie clips instance name is background.If you need any more infromation let me know but basicly what I want to do is when my main character(src_resolute) makes contact with the nested movie clip(a movie clip I have drawn inside of another movie clip) I want it to jump to the next scene or more specificaly scene 4.

I have created this swf that allows me to drag my movie clip around with easing effects.However, if I drag it too fast, my movie clip will actually goes out of my "flash".PS: I actually got this script from a user in this forum. Sorry about that. Hence, i left the credits there.)Is there anyway where I can set the boundaries where the movie clip can be dragged to? I've came across a website where the effect of dragging within a specific area is exactly what I desired.Also, I'm using AS2 and here it is.

I've hacked together this prototype "bouncing ball" from a few tutorials online.When the user clicks a color choice, the bouncing ball changes to the color picked. The ball does in fact change to the color, however, the animation ends.Is it possible to dynamically change the color and maintain the animation? 'm using AS3 and here is my script and no errors are thrown, so its doing what its suppose to.
ActionScript Code:
//call function changeColor on button click
//this function uses the AS color class called colorTansform

Now then, I am working on a game and I've come across a problem that I simply cannot figure out. I have a symbol with the instance name of "textbox" (genius, no?) and I have a button with no instance name. Now, within the "textbox" symbol, I have two frames; one of which is named "descentlava". When the aforementioned button is clicked, I need the "textbox" symbol to gotoAndStop on the "descentlava" frame. My feeble mind managed to whip up the following code for the button:
on (release) {
_root["textbox"].gotoAndStop("descentlava");
}
Unfortunately, this does not work and frankly, I'm losing my mind trying to figure this out all on my own. Anyone feel like they could offer some assistance?PS: Not sure if this changes anything, but I feel I should mention that the button and the "textbox" symbol are both within ANOTHER symbol with no instance name. Perhaps this is whats causing the problem, but taking everything out onto the stage is a big no-no. It must be contained within the symbol.

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?

I'm creating a small drag & drop activity, and I want to be able to check and see if the dragged movie clip is completely within the bounds of another movie clip (or at least in the bounds of a certain x/y zone on the main stage. I can't use dropTest because it returns true if any tiny bit of the movie clip overlaps with the dropTest movie clip.
I also thought of something that just checks the x/y coordinates of the dragged movie clip, but I'd need this to reflect a range of values rather than one coordinate. For instance, I'd want to return true if the movie clip's x is between 50-60 AND the y is between 50-60. I'm attaching a small graphic to illustrate in case my explanation isn't clear enough [URL]

I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.

There is a bad gap in my knowledge with Event Dispatch and Event architecture, and this problem proves it. I've been getting nowhere on this problem for two days, I've posted everything to my Flash site. Go here, please: [URL] Click on "Flash Banners" The two thumbnails represent two different classes. Each class is identical. Both are "extends Movie Clip" classes. Tweeners of various types control the hover and click methods. URL Loaders load the thumnails which I then wrap in MC's and make them buttonMode = true, etc. Hover and click to load the Banners on the thumbnails.
I can't send an event from the Eagle movie clip or the T2D movie clip to tell the other to fade out. Both Banner classes are instantiated through a separate Base class. I'm sure this has to be an Event Dispatch from one MC to another and that it can't be done by the Base class. how I can send an Event or Event Dispatch and what the code structure is so one movie clip can in one class can tell the other movie clip in the other class to disappear while it's neighbour is playing. I'm happy to post code or explain / clarify anything that's not clear.

I've got a main timeline .swf file called "blank.swf" which contains nothing but two blank movie clips one called called "pproduct", the other called "ppalette". In the script frame of this main timeline I use the simple "Loader = new Loader();" method to load a URL of an .swf file into the "ppalette" movie clip. The "ppalette" movie clip contains several color chip buttons, each of which use the same Loader method above to load an external .swf into a clip. Here's what I want to do: let those color chip buttons, when the "blank.swf" file loads, be used to load an .swf movie into the "pproduct" clip on the main timeline. I'm wanting to be able to swap depths with various movie clips which will take out the movie which has the palette, but I want whatever that palette has loaded in the original "pproduct" clip to stay there.

I have a combobox (ddList) populated through xml and I can get a movieClip to change its alpha when an associated item in the combobox is clicked. What I'd like to do is return that original movieClip back to its original state when another item is clicked from the combobox. Thus having this second movieClip change in alpha.[code]

I created a movie clip which plays ok. But when it ends there is a slight jump, if you will, when it goes back to frame 1 to begin playing again. Does anyone know how to make the transition unnoticeable from the last frame of a movie clip to the first frame of a movie clip?

Q1) The registration point of a created clip is top left - my question is how can I dynamically change it's registration point - say to center center?
(I am trying to attach a movie clip to a created clip and I wanted it to be centered inside the container - a related sub-question, how can I find the x-y coordinates of the attached movie clip within the created movie clip?)
Q2)When I tried to create two different movie clips, I found I had to create them at different depths, else the first would load and the second would not. Why would that be so? I'm on MX 2004 Pro.

I have a very simple problem but I can't find the very simple solution to it. I've create an animated menu with animated movie clips inside to work as buttons. All the main buttons work perfectely but I've got just on button with a sub-menu. On this sub-menu I've placed an invisible hitarea button in order to place some gotoAndStop action. The thing is, it seems to me like this submenu hitarea are underneath something else (even though is the seccond layers right about the actions layers). I've placed a simple trace action whenever the mouse rolls over this area but I get nothing... Am I doing something really wrong? I'm losing all my hair already.

I habitually create my websites with a stage size of 950 x 580. They tend to appear slightly small in any browser which is ok because they can all normally be "zoomed-in" on using the browser zoom functions.
I have just created a site which loads several external .swf's into a main movie clip and the browser zoom works fine UNTIL I incorporate a further .swf which was created from a PDF file (using swfTools - pdf2swf).
This seems to disable the normal browser zoom with the effect that everything is just moved up and left a little rather than remaining centred and enlarging.
