I'm trying to create a function that will enable me to change the colour of any movie clip to red on calling this function. I'm trying and failing miserably - so far I've managed to change everything red! Can anyone help me, pretty please?

hmm, set your function on the main time line:


function colourChange(clip) {
myColor = new Color(clip);
myColorTransform = new Object();
myColorTransform.ra = 254;
myColorTransform.ga = 22;
myColorTransform.ba = 22;
myColor.setTransform(myColorTransform);
}



and then call it using:

_root.colourChange(target_instance_here);

or...

function colourChange(clip) {
myColor = new Color(clip);
mycolor.setRGB(0xff0000)
}

and again,

_root.colourChange(target_instance_here);



so if you just want _root.changeMyColour to go red you would write:



_root.colourChange(_root.changeMyColour);


:) Does that help? Fit in with what you want?
