Re: FLASH: Changing Color via ActionScript

[Nathan Dicken]

Hi Mike,


Here's one way that you could do this...  When the mouse is dragging the

slider, monitor the difference between it's current position and it's

start/original position.  Have the object that you want to change color

inside a movie clip with a specific tint or new symbol on each frame.

You'd have to figure out the relationship between the distance your slider

is allowed to move and how many frames you have in your color controller

movie clip.  Then, as the slider moves, cycle the color controller through

specific frames.   Just monitor the color controller movie clip's frame

using the "_currentFrame" property.


hth,

Nathan
