Hey guys,
I’m loading in external swfs that have some pretty complex time-line based animations (mixture of tweens and frame by frame animations). The problem is I have to dynamically change some movieclip colors in those animations based on some settings in the main swf. Using a generic function to handle the swfs I’m able to change the colors using the colorTransform property, but whenever there’s a new key frame or a gap between key frames on the time line that movieclip loses its transform settings. I tried reapplying the color transform by using either the enter_frame event or by a timer but it’s producing some flickering between the original color and the new colorTransform color (i’m assuming that the colorTransform setter is slow?).
Was wondering if anybody had any ideas to solve this? Maybe even if its possible to modify the actual library item dynamically instead of the instances on the stage. Or maybe i’m going about this all wrong. Thanks.
