Actionscript 3 :: Change Hexadecimal Colors Programmatically To Get Lighter / Darker?
Jul 13, 2010I want to have a base colour, say 0x0066FF and I want every iteration after that to get slightly darker for example.
View 3 RepliesI want to have a base colour, say 0x0066FF and I want every iteration after that to get slightly darker for example.
View 3 RepliesI was wondering if there is a way to find a slightly darker and slightly lighter colour based on a particular value?
I have a MovieClip with 2 nested MovieClips inside. The background movie I set to a certain colour using ColorTransform and the other movie is sort of shading.
What I'm trying to do is make sure that I transform the shadings colour to be a darker shade of the background movie's colour.
I was also thinking could I then have a mid point where if the background colour is really dark have the shading start to be a certain shade lighter?
I want to know how I'm gonna do a random "tint" or "color" for my movieclip. Do someone know a tutorial for that? Btw, is it possible to make the brightness lighter or darker with
actionscript?
How, through actionscript3, and not crashing (flash stucks while getting), can I get a list of all hexadecimal colors of a bitmap.
This bitmap itīs not extense (340x230)
Q: I am making a web-application for school work. see: [URL] the collors i got working now but when i press the second button to change the view off the shoe i want that the colors change to. Now the colors keep standing. The colors are pictures converted into MC and the works with attachmovie. But with what script can i change the collors so they will change and fit on the shoe? I hope this is a good explanation. :S else i will make a better explenation.
View 3 RepliesI used the example of the "Changing Colors Using ActionScript" from your site to add to a rollover state on a movieClip. It works fine but how to I reverse the state when I rollOut. eg goes to black on rollOver and then back to its original full color image on rollOut?

View 5 RepliesI imported a .psd file that I created with Photoshop CS4 into Flash CS4 and the colors did not transfer over correctly. The colors (specifically the green text coloring) is a lot lighter/paler than they were in photoshop. How do I import a .psd over to Flash without the colors I used in Photoshop. Attached are a .jpeg image of what the photoshop file looks like and the resulting .SWF file after importing the .psd file.
View 2 RepliesI have a movieClip on stage with the instance named btn1_btn. The original movieClip is just a white box with a black stroke created with the box tool, but when its clicked I want it to change color.
I have created an event listener for the btn1_btn and I have tried numerous properties of the movieClip class like color, fill etc but I am having no luck.
Also, would it be a better way to have another box on top with the alpha at 0 then when the event function runs, have the alpha set to 1?

View 1 RepliesI've got a few problems with this project at the moment. I've got the function to colour tween the shapes through actionscript. As you look through it seems ok but I am trying to get all 3 boxes to change colour. Unfortunately I can only get one to change. When looking at the functions called by the buttons the second box seems to take priority over the first one. How can I get all three boxes to change to my desired colours? [URL]. This is an MX 04 fla file.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to programmatically print a movie clip to 8.5" x 11" plain paper regardless of the current paper size setting in the printer. e.g if the user's printer is currently set to use paper size A4, can I change the setting to Letter (8.5" x 11") from ActionScript at runtime? I use PrintJob class for printing the movieclip. According to the ActionScript online API spec [URL], I can only READ the paper size setting after the call to PrintJob.start. I can't believe that we are not allowed to change the setting.

View 1 RepliesHow do you say or achieve container.child.source = image.png?
I have a hexagon map built by specifying width and height. I draw a wireframe and place a base image for each hex into a canvas. Next, the canvas listens for a mouse click. I then run a calculation to determine which hex the mouse click was closest to. My intent is to change the source of the image that the user clicked on.
I know that mapSlate.getChildByName(mapProperties[closestHex]['baseName']) is the intended hex but I can't quite get to the point of doing a .source as Flex doesn't know that the selected object is an image.
I have a comboBox component with a CHANGE event listener on it:
dd_chapter.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeFunction);
function changeFunction(event:Event):void {
trace("changed!");
}
I want to trigger that event programmatically when the comboBox first gets loaded with data. In AS 2, the syntax would be something like "dd_chapter.onChange();". How do I do it in AS 3?
I am using a web template for a client that contains a flash header. Images and text can be changed with a data.txt file and image replacement. However I also need to change the colors of the button backgrounds and one of the display fields...I have macromedia flash 8, the fla and swf files.
I work in expressions a lot and not in dreamweaver or macromedia 8; I've opened the files in M8, but this is totally over my head right now.
I want to change the color of my image when I move the mouse over it. So I've prepared 2 images and this is the eventListener:
[Code]...
Unfortunately when I move the mouse over, I only see a blank image (error, image not found). However the compiler doesn't give me any error, and I tried to use the same path of the original image, and also to remove "../" in case he is referencing from root directory in run-time. But still nothing. The image is stored there, of course. However if I can apply an effect to change the color from blue to orange to my image (by preserving the transparency), I could solve differently
I'd like to change certain color in an image on a webpage based on user selected color, it this possible using php or javascript.
if it not possible or will be difficult, how do i do it using flash?
I have a doubt about the List component.Back in 2.0 to change some colors of a List Component in this case named my_list i could do the following:
Code:
my_list.backgroundColor = 0x469EE6;
my_list.color = 0xFFFFFF;
my_list.selectionColor = 0x000000;
my_list.textSelectedColor = 0xFFFFFF;
my_list.rollOverColor = 0x97A3B3;
I have movie clips which I made act as buttons, (Previous, Pause/Play, Next).[code]...
The button is a non-filled circle with the proper symbol in the center.
I am going to add themes to my application, where people can choose a pre-selected theme, which will load all info through a xml file (background-image, button colors, scrubber colors, etc).
How would I change the colors of the buttons in my movie clip? They are pre drawn images, that are stored in my library.
I am creating a green circle with a white arrow inside it and want arrow to change from white to green and the circle to change from green to white when user mouses over it.My function is the following:

private function DrawSliderPrevBtn():void

SliderPrevBtnMc.graphics.clear();[code].....
I'm trying to dynamically change movieclip colors. My MovieClips (on the main timeline) are named box_mc1, box_mc2, box_mc3, etc. I have the following code, but I can't figure out why it doesn't work.[code]I don't quite understand why the trace statement doesn't work either, but the mouse pointer changes to a hand when I move over the MovieClips.

View 1 RepliesI'm building a project for a gaming website and i have an interesting dilemma. How do i make the font color change based on the data loaded from the external .txt file.
Example:
In text files i could have... yes yes yes no no maybe yes no. If the text says yes i would like for the font to change to green, if no to red, or maybe to orange/yellowish.
So basically if i went in and changed the No to a Yes on a .txt file, the next time i viewed that flash section the yes text would be in green instead of the default set by the flash core itself.
I hope i am making sense. I don't even know how to go about starting and i stared at the actionscript list for awhile to no avail.
I have a simple .fla file with a circle on the stage. I want to set actionscript to make the circle randomly change colors when playing. I've tried all sorts of script commands using math random but to no avail

View 1 RepliesI am a scientist who knows molecular biology well but is a neophyte to Flex/ActionScript. I created a ColumnChart representing a probability histogram. I want to allow users to select a range of values on the X-axis via 2 sliders separate from the chart itself (one for the minimum value, one for the maximum.) By default the column bars are blue. But when the user selects a range, I would like to highlight that range in the chart a different color (eg. orange). How can this be done using ActionScript?
View 0 RepliesI have a large deal of fla files that (among many, many other problems) are using a black 0,0,0 RGB for fills and lines. I need the minimum RGB to be 15, 15, 15 and I was wondering if there was any way to automate the process of making these changes. Instead of going in and chaging each fill one by one (which I'll do, but it would be painful) I was hoping there was some way to insert a tidbit of code and have it all change automatically.
This would be similar to creating a batch in photoshop, automating the change of the black from black to a slight grey(with color adjust, for instance), and letting it do it's thing for the thousand odd pictures. While I know the process would have to be completely different for vectors, I'm hoping an example like that clears up the problem a bit.
