how can I change the color of a selected piece of text dynamically? I tried somethings like this (the function is called by a button):
Code:
function changeColor() {
Selection.setFocus(textFieldname);[code]....
but I guess 'sel' isn't a string, so i can't add textColor to it? Adding something like:
Code:
sel = new String(begin, end); doesn't help much.

I have a Flex3 TextInput control, with white text on a black background. I would like to change the style of highlighted text within the control to use black text on a white background (or something similar). I would love to do this using Flex styles, however I'm comming up empty handed
View 2 RepliesWithin FlashBuilder/Eclipse, when you select a word, such as "protected" or a variable, every instance of that word is also highlighted.How do I change the background color of the selected instances of that word or disable the feature altogether?I have already changed the "selected text background color", the instance background color seems to be controlled separately.

So.. all I want to do is to have a toggle button which changes label color to #999999 when selected. But for some reason i cant get it to work
This is my code for the button:
Code:
package components.main_content.submenu.submenu_link
{
import components.NoTruncationUITextField;
[Code]....
I tried assigning it with CSS (text-selected-color) and failed, i tried putting <mx:SetProperty target="{textField}" name="textColor" value="0x999999" /> in my skin class in all "selected" states but it worked only when run (one of the buttons starts as selected).. as soon as i ran my mouse over it or clicked another button it reverted back to the original color.
I'm creating a text editor and I want users to be able to select only part of a textfield and change the color.The problem I'm running into is the ColorPicker gains focus (I'm guessing) and the textfield loses it's "selection."All examples of text editing show the entire textfield changing color.

View 1 RepliesI need to use actionscript to change the color of a movieclip..
Heres my setup: need to change the color of head.stripes using a palette of colors. Whats the easiest way to do this?
How can I change the color of a movieclip dynamically and still keep it's filters? For example:
I have a movieclip on stage with a bevel filter on it. I then want the movieclip to change from blue to red when it's moused over and vise versa when moused out.
The color values I have are hexidecimal: 0xff0000, 0x0000ff
How can I do this? I tried colortransform but when I use that it changes color but removes filters.

View 1 RepliesI'm having issues changing a TextInput background color after the initial onLoad using AS2. On load, I have no issues setting the background color with this code:
Code:onClipEvent (load) { this.background = true; this.backgroundColor = 0x1E1C1C;}
However, I have a form validator run when focus is lost but yet I cannot set the background color at that point. For example, I'm trying to set the background color to orange and text to white if the field's contents are invalid. Even something simple like this doesn't affect the colors.
I am creating a program where a change in a value causes the color of a pie slice in an mx:PieChart to change dynamically.the code that is supposed to change the color is similar to this:(pieChart.pieChartSeries.items[i] as PieSeriesItem).fill = new mx.graphics.SolidColor(0,0.2); // black, almost opaquetracing out the results of this appears to apply the color to the particular PieSeriesItem, but the color does not change visually. I checked the AS reference and the fill property is of type iFill and should accept a solidColor instance. (note: I have also tried 0x000000 as a valid color, the first argument of SolidColor takes an uint)edit] Since I posted the question originally, I've added a few changes to clarify the question. am actually using an MXML component that extends < mx:PieChart > . Originally I was trying to set the color as listed above within an event handler in the main application. What I have done since then was invoke a method in my extended PieChart component, like so:
(in main applicaion)
private function someEventHandler(evt:someEvent):void{
pieChart.setPieSliceColor((pieChart.pieChartSeries.items[i] as PieSeriesItem));

I have a image declared like the following:
[Bindable]
[Embed( source="assets/banana.png" )]
public var iconBANANA : Class;
It is involving into itemRenderer, but I wish to change the color of the image when some event occurs (like clicking above or something). The rest of the objects used the image shall remain unchanged, only the object on which the event has occurred shall change the color of the image. But the biggest question is: How to change the image color mainly - like there is a Blue area on image - to turn it on Green, or Yellow?

I was thinking of doing this by changing the color of the text but I don't know how to do it inside the CDATA tags.At the moment one CDATA populates one text field.Another option is that there would be a movie clip behind the text that would jump to highlight a specific paragraph but then I would need to know how much vertical space each paragraph takes.
