ActionScript 3.0 :: Get(!) Color Of An Object?
Jul 6, 2009
Maybe I'm missing something really obvious but does anyone have a way of getting (not setting!) an object's color? I have no problem setting the color and animating it (with caurina Tweener). Here's an excerpt of what I'd like to do:
Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import caurina.transitions.properties.ColorShortcuts;
[code]....
As you can see from the trace(_btnColor.color), the following if-statement will not work. What gets returned, looks like a number that gets thrown when something is out of bounds or not the right type. It's weird because you can SET the color like this:
_btnColor.color = 0xCC0000;
but you cannot GET the color the same way. Where's the logic/consistency here? Has anyone an idea of how to get a (hex) color of an object?

I made a color picker and I was wondering if the color object had any way of grabbing the actual color name?
I know I could put all the colors into an array and call them up as needed... I've done the same thing in C#... and the color object in C# has a color name feature, I was wondering if Flash's color object had the same deal.

Is there a way of finding out the color of a graphic? For example if i have an array of rectangles, each with a different color set using graphics.beginFill(), can I then do something like:
color = rectangleArray[i].getColor();

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);

If I brought in a sunburst vector into Flash cs5 and made it an editable object, and made it a Movie Clip (lets name this movieclip, sun1_mc) and than made another (lets call this one sun2_mc) the only thing that changes in between these objects is the color. How would i acess the advanced feature through Actionscript 3.0 so that when the user clicks on a button (lets call this button button_btn) it transforms the color color smoothly from one frame to another. I know i could do it old stlye and make a shape tween and than put sun1_mc on frame 1 and sun2_mc on say frame 15 and just put a motion tween between them. But i was just wondering if there is a way to do this via Actionscript 3.0?

i've been using a MovieClip prototype to create and set a color object, like this:
MovieClip.prototype.setRGB=function(hex){
(new Color(this)).setRGB(hex); //creates color object + sets color
}
which makes it easy to change a MC's color like this:
MC.setRGB(0x00ff00);
now i'm working in AS 2.0, which seems to discourage using prototyping and extending the MC class methods--so my question is, what is the best approach for doing this in AS 2? i've created a new class to handle it, but it seems clunky to have to call an instance rather than having a MC call an internal method...the bottom line, is: is it ok to extend the MovieClip class in AS2, and if not, what's the cleanest approach?

i have a button, with instance name lightblue_color. I am assigning a color to its color field like this: lightblue_color.transform.colorTransform.color = 0x65ffff; then i am adding an eventlistener to the button like this: lightblue_color.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ChangeColor); Then, in the function: public function ChangeColor(evnt:MouseEvent):void {trace(evnt.target.transform.colorTransform.color);} It prints 0. Why is that? Shouldn't it print 0x65ffff or do i need to do some type conversions?

Why is it that I can never change a vector object's color? I mean I would think it'd be as simple as changing the fill color but that does nothing.
And why is it that copying and pasting vector objects from illustrator very inconsistent? Sometimes I get the exact copy, and other times their's three anchor points missing, very much screwing up the look of the object. Also, when I import a vector png image made in photoshop to flash, the fill is hollow at times.

I have a spinning sphere, built using the away3D engine, it is wrapped in a bitmap. I need to be able to check the color value of the pixels in the sphere, however BitmapData only plots the 2D image, not the 3D sphere. So, the values become wrong. If I try to apply it to the sphere I get nasty errors. I have literally been stuck on this for days.

I know that you can change changeobject's color with AS3 is using colorTransform. However if I do this, then I can't really use filters. For example, if I apply DropShadowFilter on an object which color is changed with colorTransform, then the color of a shadow is the same as object's color. So I tried to use ColorMatrixFilter to change object's color. And it works with colors like FF0000, but it doesn't with colors like FFFFFF. IS there a way to change objects color to white using ColorMatrixFilter? I use the following methods:[code]

use the "this.onEnterFrame = function()" function within a Color.prototype function? I'm trying to write my own function to go from one color to another, but nothing works within my this.onEnterFrame function, but anywhere outside of it it works fine.I've done this before, but using a movieclip prototype, so I know it' not syntax. And if you can't, for some reason, use this.onEnterFrame within a color prototype, how do you pass the name of a color object to a function so that I could just say changeColor(myColor, 0xffffff); to change it to white?

I have the component Hadlab Newsflash on my stage.I have a button that, on rollover, changes the color of the component.When the button is clicked, the component fades out (tweenning) and the movie goes on. The problem is that the constructor keeps telling the component to be #FF0000(red) and the fade out tweenning doesnt work anymore because the mouse is on the button. Here is the code:
Code:
// cria a funcao "onRollOver" para o btnEnter
btnEnter.onRollOver = function() {

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.
I am very new to Flash so hopefully it is a simple answer, but I am not seeing it yet.

(cal_mc being the object)
It executes without any errors but doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong with the if statment?

i'm trying to make something that will change a section on an image to other colors (or possibly another picture) when clicked. Something similar to this would work [URL] But, when you click on the colors, instead of the colors just filling in the wheel, i'd like it to change it to a picture, of lets just say in this example, another rim...a picture of a different actual rim instead of just a color fill.
Then, I'd like the option to have another section that will do the same, but for another location on the car. So, for example, there's a section for the rim colors like the link has. And, there is also another section with more images that can be clicked to change the headlights....then one for the background, etc...

I'm creating a new Color object in CS5. Essentially I'm using a component slider and linking the value to 360 hue and converting that value to color hex to pass into a color object which will be assigned to an object (in this text case a standard square movieclip). However, when compiling I keep getting the error 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.display:MovieClip to an unrelated type Number.
