Hiya peeps.

I finaly got the code I needed to change the colour of my background but it clearly needs altering. At the moment it works but I have to click the button twice for the colour to change. Now for once I see that this makes sense because I have onRelease twice!

This code is on the button:

on (release) {  
home\_btn.onRelease = function() {  
var myColor:Color = new Color (this.\_root.background1);  
myColor.setRGB(0xFF8844);}

However i’m unsure how to alter the code correctly…I assume the second onRelease needs to change to something else? I tried just:  
home\_btn = function() { but am really just guessing.

Anyone that could give me a heads up on this would be very much appreciated.  
Thanks
