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.

View 2 RepliesI have created a sprite as below:
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 trying to learn AS3 and I am trying something very basic that I can't seem to get to work.
I have a square with a short text inside of it. The fill color of the square is green. I grouped these items and converted them to a symbol called "rectangle". Then I placed a checkbox on top of the movie clip and gave it an instance name of "check".
What I want to do is change the color of the rectangle from green to red whenever the checkbox is selected.
I think I know "how" to do it - if checkbox selected = true - then change color to red. I am looking for the syntax.
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.

View 7 RepliesFor those of you still with me, I am tasked with making some scrollable content in Flash. Load in a TextFile using LoadURL(), then display it. To get the text, we've written our own class TextFieldExtended, which is basically just there to give the textfile location to the constructor and then have the class do the various steps of getting it and loading it for you.So I needed to get a Scrollbar, which I got hereThe thing is, it works with Sprites.After trying to get it to accept TextFieldExtended, I bumped into a block, since the scrollbar relied heavily on a Sprite property that TextFieldExtended didn't have or could have.
So I tried adding the TextFieldExtended instance to a Sprite instance using addchild.A problem occurs here that I do not know how to handle. It seems that a Rectangle is drawn and the Text is drawn on that. I say this because the scrollbar moves the Rectangle up and down a bit, but the text doesn't scroll, just the Rectangle it is positioned in and the text then moves along with it.My question: can this be fixed, or is does this implementation of scrollbars need a lot of adaptations before this is possible?
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.
View 2 RepliesI have this [code]...
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?
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
create new topic :(
trying to make a slider that changes the line thickness in a drawing app that I would to share with my students. When moved from left to right a circle changes scale. This circle would act as a visual reference on the stage telling the viewer that the line thickness is changing. Right now I just want to figure out how to connect the slider so that the circle changes dynamically. Once I get that I feel I can figure out how to connect it to lineStyle(). The current code I am attaching has the circle change size at onle two points-the far left and far right. I keep trying to write something that uses mouseX properties but so far nothing is working.
View 5 Replieshow can i control my line thickness with the speed of the cursor?Right now ive got this code, but how can i convert (speed) into something that can be translated into thickness?

I am new to actionscripting and wanted to know how I can create a button that when I mouse over it the color changes from say blue to red. Except that it doesn't just change color it would change color as if it was in a motiontween, gradually from blue to red, instead of just changing color.
View 2 RepliesRight now I create a paint program, which will consist of _xmouse, _ymouse, different colors to draw lines, different sizes. But I have a problem:
_root.line.lineStyle(size,0x00ff99,100);
The size is the thickness of the pen. But it don't seems to work inside of that script.
I have followed Ned's code from another post, whereby if a text button is clicked, the color will change. The code is like
var clicked:Boolean = false;
var clicked2:Boolean = false;
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1click);
[Code]....
Now if I click on the first button, it changes color and stays like that, which is perfect. If I click on btn2, this changes color and stays like it. The problem is that if btn2 is pressed, it should change color and stay like it (as it is doing), but btn1 should return back to its normal color (black).

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 have two options and I want to know whats faster. I have a pool of 1000 sprites objects in as3 on screen. When its needed each sprite has to resize itself. I can
1- Make each sprite a simple container to use graphics to draw a rectangle, that is, call a 'spriteInstance.graphics.' ,draw the rectangle and on each 'refresh', I do graphics.clear and redraw the rectangle but with the new size, this for each sprite.
or
2- Create each sprite with a border and on each refresh, resize it
Whats better?
I try draw one pixel width rectangle in a sprite. And add some tween on it to make some effect. But I find use the code below can't create exactly one pixel white rect. I created I want to create

Is there a neat minimal way of doing this? (this produces an error):
var freeSpace = shape.freeSpace() // returns Rectangle
var s:Sprite = new Sprite();
s.graphics.drawRect(freeSpace);
Just looking for a more cleaner way other than something like .drawRect(freeSpace.x, freeSpace.y, freeSpace.w, freeSpace.h) I know you can do it with bitmapData.fillRect(rectangle), but need sprites in this case.
when the mouse rolls over an image, text appears (in a small rectangle) and it moves with the mouse, only while it is still over the image.
Or at least, does anyone know what this is called or how to do it?

I have a Sprite that contains opaque objects surrounded by transparent pixels. I also have a Rectangle that represents a part of the Sprite that I want to render using BitmapData.draw(). The problem is that the Rectangle that I obtained also contains transparent parts. How can I narrow the Rectangle to only include the opaque parts and ignore the transparent surroundings?
kapep's answer is just what I want to do, but the problem is that the source is a Sprite, not a BitmapData object, and I don't have getColorBoundsRect() on a Sprite.
Here's a very simple AS3 project consisting of one class which draws a rectangle. When I run it, the rectangle is clearly larger than 100x100 pixels.
Edit: I know that it isn't correct because, though I have my screen resolution set to 1280x800, if I set the width to 500 it takes up almost all of my screen.

I have a rectangle drawn
Code:
line1.clear();
line1.beginFill(0xFFFF00);
line1.lineStyle(4, 0x000000);
line1.moveTo(_root.point1._x, _root.point1._y);
line1.lineTo(_root.point2._x, _root.point2._y);
line1.lineTo(_root.point3._x, _root.point3._y);
line1.lineTo(_root.point4._x, _root.point4._y);
line1.lineTo(_root.point1._x, _root.point1._y);
line1.endFill();
line1._alpha=10;
updateAfterEvent();
After the rectangle is drawn I have a button that inactivates the points. I can now change the alpha of the rectangle but not the color. Is there a way to change the color of the rectangle line1? I have tried with
line1._color=0x000000;
But it doesn't work.
