ActionScript 2.0 :: BeginGradientFill Dynamic Color Array
Mar 19, 2007
I am using actionscript to create a gradient fill which works beautifully until I try to load the colour variables from an XML. The variables load successfully, when I trace the dynamic variables they show whats in the XML file (0xf6e3ba, 0xe9c98d) but the gradient appears white to black. When I use the HEX colour values in the code directly (the gradient works) but the trace returns (15321485, 16180154). If I use these values in the XML file I still get white to black.
into an equivalent beginGradientFill call. My best guess of the translation is this
var matr:Matrix = new Matrix(); matr.createGradientBox(20, 20, Math.PI/2, 10.294, -0.276); g.beginGradientFill(GradientType.LINEAR, [0xFFD500, 0xF5A106], [1,1], [0,1], matr);
but I'm not sure if this is right, nor I know what the size of the box should be (the two 20s in the code above are just me trying stuff). Would love any expert expert opinions!
I'm having problems creating a vertical shadow using beginGradientFill. Basically, I'm just trying to put a verical shadow on my player controls. The horizontal shading looks great, but then why I try to move to the vertical it just goes grey (when I'm using a combination of white and black).
How is it done? All I've seen on the web is how to change the color. Well how about going back. I'm talking about a MC with many colors. I can't just change back to a single hexadecimal color.
I can accomplish the change as it passes over a frame, but I can't get it to change back.
In the frame is this:
Code: cHurtColor = new Color(_root.compMC); cHurtColor.setRGB(0x00FF33);

Array of color id-s represents a 3D Array of values. I've represented each value with a color(Blue is 1, Red is 2 and Green is 3). So for the example the array for the image would be[code]...
Now, I have an array of predefined shapes/objects. I'd like to replace the grouped colors with the shapes that I have. I'd like this to follow the rule of finding the largest shape first and then down to the smallest one. [code]...
Is it possible to, if you have an array of class names like ActionScript Code: var city01names:Array = ["pic_01", "pic_02", "pic_03" ...] make a new array which would read these names, instantiate them, and push them into a new array containing the instances of all these pictures, which I could then use for a slideshow?
then i pushed each of these values into different arrays.these rbir and riki are rgb color codes but i cant use them still.i can write down the "name" captions into an emptyMovieClip using createTextField.but when i try;
I am having a color array with values like 0x2EFE2E, 0xFFFF00, etc. but when i am trying to trace the values in the array, it prints something else like 95455. I think these are some converted values. But i tried using parseInt(val, 16), uint(val). None of these works. Basically, i just want to take values from this array and assign it to particleColor (a uint) and use like this:
I've created 2 text fields, on with the value of input and the second one with dynamic, since I want the second textfield to inherit the first ones value.[code]...
There is a chance to change the color of de MC dynamic?example, I make it of the yellow color, and for param of my HTML I would change for blue or red or....,and it for change the color of my dynamic text of black color for red ou blue in my param in my HTML?
I create a mc on the root level from the library by attachMovie (box1).box1 creates a second mc from the library by attachMovie (box2).On the root level I have a button who change the color of both mcs by new Color / setRGB.But box2 will have the same color than box1, regardless which color I set to box2.Button-AS (FLA is attached):
Code: this.onPress = function () { // set box1 to green
I am somewhat new to Actionscipt and I need a bit of help. I have created a dynamic text box that is being fed from an xml file. Depending on the data (whether positive or negative), I would like the output text to either be green or red (green for positive, red for negative). I�m sure that has to be a condition statement written and applied to the object, but I do not know how to do.
I am new to flash and AS3 and I am trying to change the color of movie clips using arrays and I do not think that I am not getting the function written correctly. I have attached the file that I am working in.
i have a button, with instance name lightblue_color. I am assigning a color to its color field like this: lightblue_color.transform.colorTransform.color = 0x65ffff; then i am adding an eventlistener to the button like this: lightblue_color.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ChangeColor); Then, in the function: public function ChangeColor(evnt:MouseEvent):void {trace(evnt.target.transform.colorTransform.color);} It prints 0. Why is that? Shouldn't it print 0x65ffff or do i need to do some type conversions?
I have a png clipart image dynamiclly loading into a movie clip. Is there a way in AS2 in which it would get the different color layers used in that clipart to display the color pickers related to those color layers. So that once i change the color in that color picker it would change it in the clipart as well. Basically i want flash to communicate with the png layers.
I have this code that should change the color of a dynamic textfield when I rollover the link movieclip, and then back when I rollout. I get no compiler error, it just doesn't work.
I have read all threads on color picker keyword on this site.Some of them includes links to components and some of them does not contain useful information.
Does anyone here had an experince on creating dynamic color picker?I need key points and design issues to consider to program colorpicker class with AS 2.0.
Is it a easy way to detect most used color from one jpg? I worked out a way to do this, however it seems like Flash cant handle large "for-loop" and it lead to calling abandon script during test movie...
I tired this: 1) Dynamic load in a image 2) Use Bitmapdata to register all pixel data into a array (call it A) 3) Convert A into Array B which contain no duplication of value 4) Run through Array A and adding count to see which color appear more than once or so, record it all to an Array C 5) Find out the Maximum number from Array C to determine which is the common used color from the image.
All the above did actually work in the code. My problem is, damn flash seems to handle well with image like 10*10 pixels (100 steps I suppose), swap it with 50*50 will call murder! Anyone come across issue with large "for-loop" and what is the best way to get around this?
I have a tooltip pop up when you rollover a movieclip, and the content in the tooltip is dynamic text. Right now I'm limited to only one color, and one font. Is there a way to put in to make part of the text bold and in color? I've tried just putting in the <b> tag, but that doesn't work.
tooltip._visible = false; var tipInt; b1.onRollOver = function() {
i was talking to someone @ my school about dynamic scripter color fades? he showed me an example of his script and it referenced color a value of 9126315.i asked what that was and he said he's using hex color and rgb? anyone know anything about these? im kinda familiar with the other values 0xFFFFFF and #8C2C0B but im clueless as to this one? any takers?
Can you change the color of a dynamic text font using actionscript? I'm trying to make it so that when a user clicks a button on my menu, each button will make the dynamic text change a specific color.
I am interested in creating a similar color change effect as seen at:As you can see, the color transforms as each menu item is clicked but it doesn't seem to load a new movie.
