I have a Flex Tree component in my app. I set the icons for open and close.
BUT I can't find something about changing the default background-color from white to something different.
obviously there is no background-color setable in css...
I have a MovieClip with white background and would like to change it's Background color and alpha settings at runtime. How can I?
View 1 RepliesI am downloading an external swf file, which contains a library movieclip which I want to go through and extract bitmapdata of each frame. to do this I am using a for loop on this bit of code:
Code:
var tmpBMData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(baseObj.width, baseObj.height);
tmpBMData.draw(baseObj);
Problem is, when I stick that bitmapdata in a new bitmap and put it on the stage, the bit of the mc I am interested in is surrounded by a white square. Not sure if this is something I need to handle in the Flex AS3 or the Flash CS5 used to create the swf.
How do you control the background color 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.

View 1 RepliesSo i'm working on this website and I want to be able to switch out the entire color scheme on the website everytime a button is pressed, I've stepped away from flash for awhile and actionscript 3 is new me. Plus I haven't quite found any truely useful stuff on forums yet.
What i can't figure out is when a button is pressed the HTML background color changes to one of 5 preselected colors (that alternate ever time the button is pressed). Then for each background change the text changes too as it is part of a entire new color scheme.
What I've managed so far is to change the color of the background thats within the Flash file. What i did was to make a movie clip that plays to a next frame and stop everytime the button is pressed. Now i just need to also get to change the HTML color and the font colors.
//"homeText" being the name of dynamic text field and "Button" the name of the button and "background" being the movie clip that is the background within the flash file.
Button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Button_CLICK);
function Button_CLICK(e:MouseEvent):void{
background.play(); homeText.TextFormat(color "0x000000");}
I'm not sure if my code is just sloppy or if i'm completely going the wrong route here.
Is it possible to change the background color of AS3 Color Picker component using AS3? It is always black behind the swatches and I would prefer it be white but even after alternating the skins in the library it always appears black.For example, I would like the swatch to initially be a circle which I have done and have it open to a grid of circular swatches.

Is there a way to set up a background image (repeating or non-repeating) that the stage area floats over.

I'm building my first Flash website in a 1280x800 px resolution, fixed top-centered layout. I have a 1920x1080 px bitmap set as my background. I did it in 1920x1080 px size, because I want the browser to display it (the background) acording to the user's monitor resolution. The main content though buttons, images, animations, etc - are fixed (1280x800 px centered). So, how do I do this? I've been searching the web, but I only find instructions for liquid layout layouts and such, and I don't want liquid, just the background to adapt to the target monitor size.I use Flash CS5.5 (11.5.0)

One problem. My background color turned to white. How do I specify a background color, or transparency?
Is there a way to change your sites background color by the click of a btn (without using a large mc bg)?
Also this would be on a noscale site.
I created a flash application which loads in many other little flash applications (.swf files) based on menu selections. When I change one of the little applications the changes are viewable except when I change the background color.
After the first time I view the application, the background color changes do not carry over to the main app. I run the little ones stand alone and they show the new color, then I run the main app and any other changes I have made are there but not the color change. When I remove the file and the load fails, the old backround color still displays in the container movie clip the .swf was previously loaded into.
I have tried several different options and the only thing that worked was renaming and copying and deleting and making a big mess. There has to be a way to force a refresh of this mysteriously saved color. doesn't there?
how I can set the background color of button components?I always have transparent buttons.I mean: they display the color of the main background and, therefore, they lack some enhancement.

View 2 RepliesI have a TextField that needs to display a string.This string has an associated highlite map that indicates if that character in the string needs to be highlighted in some way (say, a yellow background color, which would be ideal).However, after a great deal of searching, there does not seem to be a way to assign a separate background color to an individual character in a TextField.Has anyone tried to do this with any success?The css support doesn't include background image or color.
I have thought about breaking the string up into a number of TextFields (as many as there are charcters in the string) and displaying the resulting TextFields end to end, but since the original TextField/string is multiline, I'm not sure how I would determine where the line breaks.
