hi there,

well… i’m busy with some color changing things… let me try to explain my situation. In a movieclip ive got this code:

```auto
var my_color = new Color(this);
my_color.setTransform(_root.windowbg);

```

on the \_root of the movie ive got this code:

```auto
_root.windowbg = {ra: 50, rb: 244, ga: 40, gb: 112, ba: 12, bb: 90, aa: 40, ab: 70};

```

what i want is to change my\_color with some slider… ive got sliders for ra, rb, ga, gb… etc but i want the sliders to start on the right position (now the sliders start on the left… so their value is the minimum value) so what i want to do is get every value out of \_root.windowbg… but if i trace(\_root.windowbg) it outputs [object Object]… how do i get each value out of there?

thanks!
