How can I script tinting?
I’m trying to script tinted into a movie clip.
I know about \_alpha… but I’ve never tinted with AS.
Hows it done?
I’m assuming its possible

Local smart guy Senocular posted [this](http://www.senocular.com/downloads/ColorFader.as). There used to be a flash file here, but this appears to be the as he used for color changing.

its done using the Color object. Research it.
Then, look for useful methods in the color section at [http://proto.layer51.com](http://proto.layer51.com)

from what he is posting, it sounds like he wants to use the color transform object.
Look at the color object as senocular mentioned, but look at the Color.setTransform() method. I think that is what you are looking for.
