I found FlashObject script easy to understand and apply ... in part due to good instructions and the handy 'Generator.'
It validated W3C too!
One problem. My background color turned to white. How do I specify a background color, or transparency?
I have a collection of animated sprites with a brown background and I want to know how to make the brown transparent. Is there some kind of color keying in flash? The brown is #5E4229 by the way.

I have two backgrounds on different layers, and an object that can be dragged around. What I want to happen is that an area around the object should be transparent so you can see the background behind the first background, and when the object is moved, the transparent area should also move. Kind of like a "see-through" effect.

Or if you have ever played "Scorched Earth" you will see that when some part of the terrain is destroyed, it punches out the pixels perfectly when a shot is fired into the ground, to reveal the picture behind the main picture with the terrain.
I ran into an odd problem a week ago that I haven't been able to fix. I'm new to Flash so sorry if this has been discussed but my research has turned up nothing. I'm using Flash Develop. I managed to duplicate the problem in a simple program: I set up one large bitmap for the background, not transparent. I then add another large bitmap on top of that, the second layer background, as a child of the main bg. This layer has transparency so you can see the bg through the trees and such. Then I stack a lot of sprites on top of each other, all with transparency. They can be children of the main bg or the second layer bg, doesn't matter. Where the transparency of the sprites overlap the second layer background disappears completely to reveal the main background (like a window around the sprite stack.) The bitmaps I'm using are from embedded png files.
I found that 23 transparent objects causes the 24th object and beyond to disappear. And it only happens when I have a mask set to the main background (a simple filled square for clipping the child sprites that move off-screen.) Also the problem goes away while the background is moving. My project features many objects near each other so the chance of this problem occurring is pretty high. Its not game-breaking but I'm new to flash and my project is nearly complete (and large) so I'm hoping there is something simple I can do to fix this.
I am using the below given code to try to make the transparency 0, but I still am unable to make the background become absolutely transparent.

modalTransparencyBlur: 0;

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.

View 5 RepliesIs 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?

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.

View 2 RepliesI have a quick question about fading a bg color using actionscript. I am creating a splash page at 800x600 in flash, which is being opened into a new window that fills the browser of the users screen. I already have the actionscript to open into a full browser window.
However, when the user clicks on a button in the 800x600 splash, the bg color in the full browser window will need to change from blue to white. What would be the best way to do this, is there a piece of actionscript that can be attached to a button to do this? Or does a large flash document size need to be created with the 800x600 centered in the middle?
Wondering how simple it would be to specify a background color in the xml file for each image.That way you could have the background of the movie to fade from one color to the next to match the image displayed.Probably like ...
