anyone know how? the mc tween doesn’t seem to work (colorTo), also tried embedding it in another movie clip, and tween that clip but still no joy? any ideas?

item\_mc.main\_btn.onRollOver = function(){  
trace(“coloring”);  
item\_mc.textclip.species\_txt.text.color = 0xff0000;  
}

also tried…

item\_mc.main\_btn.onRollOver = function(){  
trace(“coloring”);  
item\_mc.textclip.species\_txt.color = 0xff0000;  
}

and the colorTo tweens aswell…
