The color object colorful is being given a color value. Because the object, colorful, is referring to the shapes movie clip stored on the main timeline, the color featured after Flash’s setRGB function will be applied. Everytime a MovieClip is instanciated or readed from a new keyframe, its like it was a new MovieClip used. I suppose by reading what you’ve written that you should try this method below and modify the colors by using the timeline. Good luck!
