</div>

is it possible to relate these two?

so that i can apply this to text as well to the movieclip.

```auto
var _myColor:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
_myColor.color = 0xffff00; 

myTxt.textColor = uint(myColor);//this doesnt work

var myTextColor:uint = 0xffff00;//i need to define one more var for text

```
