ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Fill Color Of A Sprite Without Affecting Outline?
Jan 28, 2009
Detail: I am reading some data from SVG and getting them as Sprite objects; now I need to change the fill color of these sprite objects dynamically without affection the outline color. I gave it a try with ColorTransform but that changes everything in the object.
PS: I already tried searching the forum for the same thing but search seems to have some technical issues... therefore had to
I am looking for a way to change stroke color via AS3. The objects I would like to change are created with flash professional. They do have a fill. I just want to change the stroke color and not the fill color... is this possible? ... or am I stuck removing all fills and using a filter?
I have a normal rectangle shape in flash. Id like to change the fill color of it using code, so I can use flashvars and be able to change the color of the shape with a few HTML adjustments.All I need to know is how to change the fill color of the shape. I've got the flashvars sorted.
How can I dynamically change the color of fill for something created like this:[code]I'd like to change the fill color onRollOver, onRollOut, onRelease, etc., but I don't know which property to refer to.[code]
I'm trying to get a movieclip fill color to change once clicked. I'm able to get the mouseover and mouseout working. But the click state isn't working properly.
When I use the above code, nothing happens once clicked. I tried using the color property, but, although that made a color change (black), it wasn't the color I had indicated (white).What I have is a movieclip ("my_mc"). Inside the movieclip are other movieclips. When one is clicked, only that movieclip ("my_mc.movieclip01"), is highlighted.
When I use begin/endFill it work only for sprite dynamicaly drawed. So I use colorTransform to color a Sprite which is already on the stage. However all is colored. Is it possible to select what you want to color (line or fill)? I want to change only the fill color.
i have found a beautiful water effect made in as3. The effect is available to download on the website below.I am trying to change the fill of the water (that is blue or any color that you pick).The original code fills the water like this:
Code: public function renderWater():void { shape.grapics.clear(); shape.graphics.beginFill(0x006699); shape.graphics.lineStyle(0, 0x000000, 0);
[code].....
I tried to follow the instructions on the beginBitmapFill help, but i am receiving the water with no fill.
I need to make the font on the flash page have a white outline and a red fill and also on another font a white outline with no fill. I cannot seem to work out how to do this?
I have a PNG that is a child of sprite object. The PNG consists of a shape in the middle of a transparent background (the alpha value is zero). I want to change the color of the sprite, but I do not want to change the transparent background.
And It seems to work but this is creating a new rect. Which I do not want.
And I have tried ColorTransform, and that changes everything, even the border, which is not what I wanted. And I am not able to colortransform and then set the border color.
So how can I change the color of a sprite without changing the border color?
var arrowHeadRight:Sprite = new Sprite(); with(arrowHeadRight.graphics){ beginFill(0xDDDDDD, 1); moveTo(50,0); lineTo(0,50);
[Code]...
On Mouse Over, I wish to change the color of the fill on this shape? Can this be done or do I have to re-draw the graphics with an updated beginFill line?
I am a new user. How do I can add more thickness and change color of a rectange Sprite object on mouse over and on mouse out I want to make it normal again.
I want to be able to change lines thickness/color for sprites/movieclips created in Flash CS in ActionScript code. Is it possible to achieve this kind of functionality?
I am new to flash, trying to do some animation character. I have 2 queries
1. What is lock fill; whenever I am trying to fill a color, it shows lock fill....
2. If I am creating a non regular figure like say with pencil, if I draw some part of it & do other part by later; these will be assumed different objects & I am not able to fill the whole figure with a selected color.
If I change some value for a parent sprite, the same value will affect all of its children. So if I set alpha or width on the parent, the child will automaticly get the same value.
Hoping someone can point me in the right direction with this. Instead of creating a button and nesting movie clips for each state, I'm trying to script an animated button of a square (no fill) where on rollover the stroke color changes from one color to another (tweening the tint). I want to do this to the button symbol so it's the same for all instances. Is this possible or do I have to go the button > nested MC route? Sorry if this is lame...it's been awhile since I've used Flash and I've forgotten quite a bit.
I have a movie clip representing the state of Missouri. I'm changing its fill color based on data from an xml file. I'd like its outline color to be black. I've tried applying a glow filter, but it doesn't seem to work.
I have drawn intersecting lines. The user can click on a region inside the angle formed by the two lines.When the user clicks inside the area, the small region formed by the arc between the two lines showing the angle should change. How can I do that.the region between the intersecting lines is sprite object to dispatch event listener, but the arc is shape object.
I thought that in the past I had seen a tutorial on this site teaching how to have a outlined box scale smaller and larger when a button is clicked, and the size of the box scales to a certain size depending on what loads inside the box. When this happens the outline does not change either. This all being done in most likely actionscript?
Well I have searched extensively and have not found it on this site, which I thought is where I had seen it. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knew of the tutorial or if they could tell me how to do what I have exlained above that would be really awesome!
I'd like to fill the .graphics section of a sprite AFTER a series of lines and arcs are drawn. To draw the shape, I need to use a series of moveTo() and lineTo() statements, so the standard beginFill() won't work for me. The final shape will always be closed, but I don't have the lines/arcs in sequential order.
What I want to do is draw the outline of an object using the IDE to create my movieclip symbol...this object will be an enclosed region e.g a cloud. I then want to be able to fill the internal area of the object with a bitmap using actionscript.
I had assumed that I would be able to do this via graphics.beginBitmapFill but there doesn't seem to be a way to specify to draw the outline within the MC or to do a floodfill with a bitmap using a point of origin within an enclosed region.
I can't say that I have played with it much, but I was looking to use a gradiant fill in one of my Sprite objects I created in flash. Seems that the gradiant fill always goes left to right... how can I make it go up and down? I know I can rotate the object, but then I would mess with the x and y scales that would mess me up later down the road. is there a way to change it to vertical fill?
I've created a colour palette and given each colour a unique number and name (E.g. V123 Plum, V456 Ruby). Also the colour names is being loaded from a mysql database.
When the name of the colour is loaded in to a dynamic box , I want to fill an object in that colour.
var mycol1 = V123 Plum;V123 Plum = "0xFF6600"colorchange.setRGB(mycol1); var mycol2 = V456 Ruby; V123 Plum = "0xFFCC00"colorchange.setRGB(mycol2);
I am currently learning to use flash and i am following the ebook guide. On lesson 2 at the end, it requests you to select a complex shape, go to the bucket option and change the fill colour to dark brown. I tried that but the fill option has a red line across it and it cannot be selected. I need to complete this step if i want to finish lesson 2. I tried different things but it seems like the shape cannot be edited. I looked and it is not locked.[url]...
I've been working in flash for an independent studies course and I've come across an issue that is halting my class's progression. My Fill Color swatch is stuck as a transparent color and when i attempt to change it by clicking a color or typing in the color's code it doesn't change. Update:
-The issue is still there, but I've found that if I click the "black and white" option it enables the ability to change the fill color again, but only after that.-
-Another issue is that the color of text is also stuck on transparent unless I go into the color window, the box that allows you to select custom colors, and select a color from there.
I'm building a map editor for a project and need to draw a hexagon and fill it with a solid color. I have the shape correct but for the life of me can't figure out how to fill it. I suspect it may be due to whether the thing is a Shape, Sprite or UIComponent. Here is what I have for the polygon itself:
import com.Polygon; import mx.core.UIComponent; public class greenFillOne extends UIComponent {
