ActionScript 3.0 :: Changing Colour Of Button Movie Clip Child?
May 28, 2009
I have a few buttons which I need to change the state colors using AS. I am able to change the whole button color but not the state object (converted to a movie clip).
All the variables are dynamic and I have not been able to get to the child object.
var block_color = new Color("_root.c_Angola.c_1");
block_color.setRGB("0x234234");
OR
var block_color = new Color("c_1");
block_color.setRGB("0x234234");
How do I access the movie object which is in a button up state?

I'm trying to get AS to change the colour of several MC's - but it's not working... I wondered if anyone could please tell me where I've gone wrong? I have 5 large MC squares - when hovered/rolled over they reveal text/colour within. That part works!
What I am trying to achieve is: When rolling over 1 of the squares (i.e. sq1) to tint the colour of the other 4 squares to grey - so that the one that is hovered over is full colour, but the other 4 are greyed out. On rollout of sq1, the other 4 grey squares return to their coloured state.
I worked through the Kirupa - Changing Colours with AS tutorial, and tried to apply that to my situation, but I still can't get it to work.

I want to create another button on the main menu of my flash site. I want to take one of the existing buttons (which are set as movie clips) and modify it to show a different menu name and page link. BUT when I go into my library and "duplicate" my movie clip, change the instance name, drag it to the stage and attempt to modify it, the original changes as well. I need to keep the original the same and create a new one with the same code, frames, etc but with different static text. I keep going in circles

I have an Movie Clip in Flash that have subobject of button type which has subobject of input text and movie clips. Right after creation core Moveclip all subobject are set to null, when I expect them to be valid objects.
[Code]...
MC_Core_design was created in Flash and exported to Actionscript. I've done this for button_1 class aswell. The code was written using Flex. When I comment out both lines that result in error I get correct view of the core Movie clip with all subobject. How can I set subobject properties right after object creation?

how you can change the colour / tint of a movie clip via code, and essentially via a RGB value specified in an external xml file.
Here is the xml file I'm working with right now...
PHP Code:
<Countdown year="2009" month="2" day="14" bgdcolour="0xFFFFFF" lcdcolour="0xFFFFFF" labelscolour = "0x000000" textcolour = "0x000000">
</Countdown>
[Code].....
The bits highlighted in red bold above is the section where I've got stuck.. I have tried code: var bgdcolour:uint = Countdown.@bgdcolour; , but no luck and all I get is '16777215' in the output panel..

how do you control the backround colour of a movie clip and the stage? i have thought about placing a mc within the mc as a backround_mc, then change the tint attribute from my main timeline, is this on the right track?
i have a movie where a user loads images into an image viewer (mc) i have craeted. If a user clicks on gallery 1, the loader appears, and load the jpg and then tells the viewer to show onceloaded. But, if a user clicks on gallery 1, then clicks on gallery 2, the movie finishes loading picture 1, before loading picture 2, is there any waqy i can force the loader to stop loading one,a dn load two immediately.
I have careted a class, now, how do i assign an mc to be an object of that class, from the main timeline or the onclipevent load event

I really have two questions: How do I affect both a movie clip and its child movie clip in the same function? and how do I pull info from one component into a function for another? My basic setup is a movie clip of font choices, one on each frame: "bodyText_mc." Each of these frames has a child clip "bodyText_mc.bodyText" with alignment choices for the font. For instance, the user picks "Script" in the first ComboBox and then picks "Align Right" in the second. (All of this text is static because I need more design control that I can get with dynamic text.)
First of all, I have a combobox "cbBodyFont" that I use to go from frame to frame on movieclip "bodyText_mc." This works nicely:

I'm new to actionscript 3 but I do have a little actionscript 2, but, what I want to do is change the colour of a movie clip or the stage using local time. From what I could gather you can't change the stage colour but you can change the colour of a movie clip.[code]...

I want to loop through a movie clip and assign a function to each of the clip's child movieclips. when i do a for...in loop and then do a typeof() trace I get "string" and obviously it won't let me assign lets say 'onRollOver' functions to the children.

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.

I'm working on a scrolling game for my multimedia class, and I want to be able to have the player choose the colour of their character. Rather than having three separate classes (which would result in having three copies of all the code), i wanted to know if I could set a hue value instead. This is what I have so far (for one of the three buttons) :
Frame 1:
Code:
var rPlayerColour:Number = 1;
addChild(blueBut);
blueBut.x = 10;
blueBut.y = 385;

I am trying to automatically change the colour of an MC when it comes into play and am having a few problem. I used the code I found in the Flash AS Help, but it's not working.
Here's what I used:
myColor = new Color(rollover);
myColor = setRGB(0x993366);
Rollover is the instance of the MC I want to target.

I want to change variables on the main stage's code from within a movie clip.
Say for example, I want to change a variable called 'chair'
In AS2, this is how I would do it:
(on the main stage)
Code:
chair = 2;
(in the movie clip)
[Code].....
But all I get is a 1119 error saying 'Access of possibly undefined property chair through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.'

The thing should work like this: theres a movie clip in frame 10 of the timeline with two buttons inside, by clicking one of them the movie should jump to frame 15 and take the alpha of two Mc there (they are inside a different movie clip) to 0. This is what ie been trying (code on the button, btw):
on (release) {
McScene2.lettuce._alpha = 0;
McScene2.pumpkin._alpha = 0;

I have a client that has a series of products that come indifferent colours and different textures. What I need to do is havepicture of the product. When the user runs a mouse over the colourpalette the product changes it's colour to represent the chose madeby the customer fro the various choose in a colour palette.

Basically, I want to change the colour of a component in my fla file that is called 'EDL Arrow' using Actionscript
'EDL Arrow' is a Movieclip and is part of another movileclip called 'EDLClipDisplay' - which exports to my actionscript file: 'Export: CIS.FLVPlayer.EDLClipDisplay'
How can I change the colour of the component 'EDL Arrow' from the actionscript file 'EDLClipDisplay'
I understand how to do colorTransforms but I just don't understand how to connect this component 'EDL Arrow' with my Actionscript file.

I'm working on a game at the moment, and I'm running into a problem. I was testing the vector files that I export of the art I made, and upon re-importation to flash the colours have changed significantly. Then, when the game is running in a browser, it looks different again. It even looks different between different browsers.

should be simple anyway . I'm using flash CS5 but have continued using AS2 because that is what I know how to use. Im trying to change the colour of a Dynamic text field in which the string is constantly changing. I am trying to use the code:
Code:
_root.textField1.textColor = 0xFF0000;to get change it from white to red, but it does not work. I am thinking it is maybe because in CS5 you have to embed fonts (I dont know how to do this!). If this is the case is there an easy way to embed a whole font with all colours etc?

I have this piece of actionscript working
Code:
var my_color = new Color("mymc");
my_color.setRGB(0xFF0000);
This works when I call the actionscript say from a button on the same timeline as the movieclip. What I can't get my head round is how I change the colour of an object on a different timeline, say if the path to the movieclip was _root.mc1.mc2.mymc
