Trying to make the same colorchanger and objekt changer on other pictures.

well there are tons of ways of doing that. if your looking to do that with a car i would prob suggest making the body of the car a movie clip and use setRGB():

here’s some code to get you started. place this code inside your movie clip

```auto

colorObj = new Color(this);
colorObj.setRGB(0x000000);
_root.button.onRelease = function() {
                colorObj.setRGB(0x009900);
};

```

play around with it, LIB explaned all this to me and i use the color object all the time now.

there are probably other ways of doing it using prototypes and such but for that, i can’t really help.

If I were doing this, I would try removing the color from the area that you want to change, so that area of the image is transparent. I would then put a symbol in the layer below the image that’s left over (after removing the color). Then, when you click the color in the color picker, set the color of the lower symbol to the color you’ve selected. I’m sure there’re other ways to do this, but that’d probably work.
