hi there, i have a for loop to attach a movieclip X times, and an Array with several color codes to apply in the loop.

everything works fine with the setRGB. the movies have an internal background movieclip that gets the color i want to apply.

the thing is the movieclip’s loose the animation i created to that internal movie (the one who get’s the color). they do not respond to gotoAndPlay, or gotoAndStop…

i disabled the setRGB lines, and the movie’s play fine now. does setRGB transform my movieclips to a bitmap or something? disabling every animation inside?  
does anyone know any other way i can do this?

thanks in advance!
