Hi, i have a movieclip within a movieclip placed on the main stage, when someone rolls over it, i want it to change the colour of another movie clip on the stage (its just text on the stage that i turned into a movieclip.) I have my roll over script and everything else working fine, just this. All i’m basically trying to do is highlight someones name from a list (i’ve turned each persons name into a movieclip) once they select that persons picture. So i’m looking for help with changing the colour on roll over, and reverting it to normal on roll out, if possible. Thanks!
