New Color help

1

Hey, I know how to tint a MC white, but how would I set it back to its original coloring [if its an image inside a movieclip]?

and

[AS] myColor = new Color(myMovie);
myColor.setRGB(0xFFFFFF);[/AS]

And?

You could use the Color.setTransform method instead of Color.setRGB.

Here’s a quick example:
[AS]var myColor = new Color(myMovieClip);
// change color
myColor.setTransform({rb:204});
// restore color
myColor.setTransform({rb:0});[/AS]

erm… I don’t exactly get the colorTransformObject parameter’s, how does it compose hex? For example I want to make 0xFFFFFF?

hex is in the form of 0xRRGGBB
0-FF is 256 values giving you 256 values (0-255) of either red green and/or blue.
0x000000 is black
0xFF0000 is 255 red
0x0000FF is 255 blue
etc

Sorry!! I read your tutorial on actionscript.org and hell it cleared alot for me… I did properties and 255’d each color to get white, thanks!
