View 1 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?

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 1 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:
import fl.transitions.Tween;import fl.transitions.easing.*;about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, manageMouseOver); about_bg.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, manageMouseOut);[code]....
Using this code I am filling a dynamic text box with numbers 1-number defined by xml:
Code:
var pageNum:String;
txt.text = "";
for (var i:int=1; i < myXML.*.length()+1; i++) {
pageNum = String(i);
txt.appendText(pageNum+" ");
}
What I would like to do is be able to change the colour of one number. If the dynamic text box has the numbers 1-5 in it I would, for example, like to change the colour of the number 2. Have it set to blue but the rest to white. How would I do this without changing the colour of the entire text field?

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to work out how to change text colour in Flash 4, but nothing I've tried will do it.What I have is some text that the user edits, then a button for the colour. When they hit the button, the text changes colour.I've tried changing the alpha levels and visibility levels of the text boxes, putting masks over the boxes that move into place when the right button is pressed, and a bunch of different approaches.

I'm trying to duplicate this type of mouse trail. I can't tell if it's deforming a movie clip or drawing separate objects on the stage. I can duplicate it at slow speeds, but at a fast speeds I have no idea how they're doing it.
The MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE is way to slow on the update to draw exactly where the mouse is going so I tried using curveTo to create a curve but unfortunately you still hit a point where you get a sharp angle.
I've been busy with a small tutorial on creating a flaming mouse trail. I'm getting two errors though in the same line which I do not understand in the following part of my code:
function startTheFire( e:Event ):void{
TweenLite.to( e.target,0, {alpha: ( e.target.alpha -= 0.05 )} );
if ( e.target.alpha < = 0 )
e.target.removeEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, startTheFire );
removeChild( e.target as Sprite );
}
ERRORS:
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before semicolon.
1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before assign.
Both refer to the following line: if ( e.target.alpha < = 0 )
