Hi,

Can somebowy help me with the following:  
On frame 1, I have 2 different MC’s (“LetterY” & “Symbol5”).  
They get both a Random color by Actionscript by uploading or refreshing the page. But they both have a different choosen color. Example ‘Blue and green’.  
What I want to try/do is to get “LetterY & Symbol5” the same Randomised color by “ONE” Actionscript on frame 1.  
So I get the SAME Colordefinition (Randomised) for “LetterY” & “Symbol5” and by example they are both Orange.  
Can somebody help me?

TX !

## See below the AC at the moment.

myColor = Math.round( Math.random()\*0xFFFFFF );  
myColoredObject = new Color (\_root.LetterY);  
myColoredObject.setRGB(myColor);

myColor = Math.round( Math.random()\*0xFFFFFF );  
myColoredObject = new Color (\_root.Symbol5);  
myColoredObject.setRGB(myColor); :crazy:
