ActionScript 3.0 :: MovieClip Toggle Buttons - Change Color From Gray To Red
Apr 30, 2010
I am trying to make a toggle button where, when the user clicks it, it changes from grey to red. I am using movie clips rather than "button" symbols because, when switching between states, buttons look kind of bouncy after you click them. I have everything working, however, because I am using movie clips the "hand" cursor does not appear when I hover over the buttons. I am using very basic code:
What is the easiest way to change the background color of a toggle button when it is selected?I've tried creating a custom skin for the button and applying it to the downSkin property, but I can't figure out how to change the background color from within the skin. Also I'd like to avoid using an image as a background if possible.
i want to change a colors tint and store that color for later use to apply to dynamically created sprites, for some reason the code changes my place graphic as expect but when i draw a square using the Colortransform.color property the color always in gray scale?
What I am trying to do is to have the button color change to a different color when it is on the page. The color only changes when I roll over it or hit it. Once I am on the page it changes back to the color it is on the up state.
I need to create, from a given Bitmap/BitmapData of a PNG file which has transparent and semitransparent pixels, another BitmapData which is a copy of it, but all the pixels (well, the pixels that are not alpha 0% actually) must have a specified grey color value (0xdddddd).
I am using lightbox++ to load images outside of flash in order to make that work I have to set wmode=transparent in the object properties But doing this lightens the gray color used in the swf.. Without adding wmode=transparent Screenshot with wmode=transparent
I'm a student currently trying to learn Flash CS3. However I've encountered a problem with the paint bucket. In my assignment I've created a simple rocket, each part with it's corresponding layer. Now I need to go back in and fill the body in a light gray color. I did so successfully with the nose cone. The problem now is that the bucket won't fill any other area no matter what I do, or which layer is selected.
I'm playing around since days with the Color.Matrix.Filter and cant get it working. The Problem is that i have to implement it to a existing project which was done by someone else.If i do it from scratch it works.COLOR TWEEN FROM GRAY TO COLORED ( Normal ) ON MOUSE ROLL OVER Existing Code ( not on Frame one of the Project, its inside a Movieclip which will be placed on frame one of the main stage / scene.
I have an MC with the instance name "building". I want to be able to change the RGB color values of this MC with three buttons for example. for example, one button would change the RGB values to 60 89 159 another button would change the RGB values to 50 251 59 another button would change the RGB values to 22 21 59 And, when the button is clicked, the new RGB color value should fade in without the old values fading out.
I'm trying to make it so when the user clicks a button, it fades from it's current colour to a pre-defined one.[code]...
The script works, but not as hoped. The colour will only change when the user is "clicking" on the button, I want to it keep changing colour until it reaches the 'endColour' variable (like it should) - I have tried doing an "onRelease" statement, but this didn't help either
Secondly, like I said in my preamble, I want it to be able to fade from its current colour to a set colour, eg: I need var startColour to be dynamic, rather than fixed, but I don't know how to read in an objects current colour(!)
I want to know the actionscript for when hovering over a button which is a picture, the whole screen fades into a translucent grey (with everything else still in the background) and have a larger version of my picture appearing on top of the grey. And when the mouse leaves the button, the grey and the larger version of the picture will fade out and return back to my original.
I am trying to change the color of my movieclip, but am having alot of trouble targetting it. Its within a button, that is within another movieclip, its path looks something like:
root.fullgrid.b1x1.planetfill fullgrid is movieclip b1x1 is button planetfill is movieclip <---this is the one I'm trying to change color. function change color(e:Event):void { var colorTransform:ColorTransform = target.transform.colorTransform; colorTransform.color = 0xFF0000; target.transform.colorTransform = colorTransform; }
I am able to change the color of a movieclip on the stage, so I know the code works, its just a targetting issue.
Happy New Year 2010 everyone :) Just getting back into the Flash groove, and having a simple question.I have a movie(video player) where the color of the buttons changes. I've already drawn out the buttons and created a 1 color box(movieClip) that will be the background of all the buttons.
I've used ColorTransform to change the color of a rectangle that I used code to create, but what is the simplest way to go about changing a color in a movieClip containing a graphic that you physically have drawn out. Path to movieClip that I need to change the HEX value of: controls.btn_Sound.colorChip
I have implemented this code to see if it was any easier to do as part of my plan. My objective is to be able to click a square and for it to change color then click again for it to revert back to the original color BUT I want this to repeat constantly if possible as it wont do currently after the code I added:
Here is the code:
Code: import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.events.MouseEvent; var box:Sprite = new Sprite();
i have to change the movieclip color on press it, i did it. the thread is how to change the color of movieclip from two color (i,e) for example take two colors red and blue, in first press it change into red color and in second press change into blue, for third change into red, for fourth press change into blue,fifth->red.........like wise.
How to change a movieclip's colour value using AS? Thing is I need it to fade from 1 to another, not just flick like in all the tutorials I've found so far.
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.
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.Here's my code:
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.
I am trying to link my list component to the movieclips drawn from an xml...basically my app reads an xml and draws a floorplan of booths...the list is populated with exhibitors and is linked to the rented booths on the floor plan...currently when you click an exhibitor in the list, the alpha of the booth changes to 10...then back to 100 when you choose another exhibitor...I want to change the color of the booth to something else like yellow...is this possible through actionscript?

I'm trying to change a movieclip's color randomly every second using actionscript 2. Additionally, I like to use fading as the transition between the colors.
