When I animate the color of any shape that has a stroke, the whole thing changes color. I'm using "tint" and "removeTint" for that. I'd like to animate either the stroke or the fill independently.I'm using TweenMax.
View 3 RepliesBasically I have a menu with submenus. The submenu is a Sprite with two children, one is a square for the background and the text on top. On mouse over, I can change the color of the first child, the background, but not the color of the text, the second child. Here is the code.
ActionScript Code:
private function subMenuItemOver(evt:MouseEvent):void {
TweenLite.to(evt.target.getChildAt(0), 1, {tint:0x9ca26e}); // Works
TweenLite.to(evt.target.getChildAt(1), 1, {tint:0xffffff}); // Doesn't work
}
The menus are created from an xml document and the color is assigned with TextFormat.
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.
View 7 RepliesI 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?
View 1 RepliesSomehow, I've been unable to figure out exactly how to do this, even though I suspect it should be dead simple! All I want to do is read the colors of the fills & strokes on some objects I've imported from Adobe Illustrator. They have very specific colors applied to them, such that I can parse them (hopefully!) and know what to do with the objects based on their unique color.
View 7 RepliesSo we're sitting here at the studio trying to figure out how to use the pen tool without a stroke. We do most of the work in Illustrator, then paste it in Flash. Unfortunately, some objects sometimes disappear while breaking the object down, which means that we have to do some actual touchup work in Flash.
View 2 RepliesI have a Shape object called myShape which contains exactly one rectangle.Is there a way to know the stroke and fill styles of myShape? I want to get the fill color, fill alpha, stroke color, stroke alpha and stroke thickness of the rectangle in myShape.
View 1 RepliesIf I have a rectangle which has a fill of blue and stroke of orange how can I change the stroke to black and the fill to red using actioncript.
When I use the following code it changes the entire rectangle to 0x008000 (green). Either the fill is covering the stroke or it is changing both the fill and stroke to 0x008000 (green).
var myColor:ColorTransform = myRectangle.transform.colorTransform;
savedColor = myRectangle.transform.colorTransform;
myColor.color = 0x008000;

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.
Code:
var myArrow:ArrowMovieClip = new ArrowMovieClip();
var vectorDisplayObject:DisplayObject = stage.addChild( myArrow );
I used the code above to create an instance of an arrow graphic that I made using the line tool (the graphic is embedded in a movie clip). I now want to add different colored fills and different stroke sizes and colors using code. Is it possible to do this with pre-drawn vector graphic objects, or is it only doable if I create the arrow with code using things like lineTo and curveTo?
How can I make the color from a mc, a square with a flat fill, fade from one color to another (by using actionscript only) ?

View 1 RepliesI'm attempting to create a color wheel component in Flex 4 that will allow me to represent RGB and HSL data.I'm doing so with a circular color wheel representing the various hues available to me and a rectangular gradient in the center of that which will represent the lightness and saturation fields
Currently I have the objects represented but I cannot determine the best way to fill them in. I have no problem creating the gradient necessary in the center square, but I cannot get the outer ring to build a -circular- gradient. It seems the only two native gradients in flex are linear and radial, but I need the gradient to linearly follow the path around the ellipse. How would I make this possible?
Here's the attempt I've made thus far:
<s:Group>
<s:Ellipse x="7" y="7" width="136" height="136">
<s:stroke>
<s:LinearGradientStroke weight="14">

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]...
View 2 RepliesI'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 {

View 13 RepliesI'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:
Code:
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onFolderOver, false, 0, true);
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onFolderOut, false, 0, true);
my_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showMovieclip, false, 0, true);

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 struggling to find a way to animate a fill of text in Flash CS4. The concept I am looking for is that over a time period have the color rise from the bottom to the top. My initial attempt was to have 2 objects, one filled with the color and the other filled with white. I was hoping to just adjust the borders of the object or text to have it disappear, but that just reshapes the object, not cropping it. If you know how to crop into objects and reveal the object beneath, let me know.

View 1 RepliesI am writing a custom item renderer to render a column series in my application.
Its a stacked chart and i want to use the same item renderer for both the column series. The color for each series in the stack is different and am setting that in the 'fill' property of the two series. My doubt is how can i get the color specified in the fill property of the column series from the item renderer. if this works then i can very well use the same renderer for both series.
