I have a MovieClip in my flash library that normally has a white background. What I would like to do is have that background change color in response to events in my program. Is there any way to dynamically change this in actionscript?

as long as the background is a moveiclip you can change it's color.

mymc.color = (a hexadecimal value);

Thanks for the tip, it doesn't seem to change the color of my MovieClip however. It's probably something more fundamental that I don't understand.

are you targeting the bg:

mymc.my_bg_clip.color = 0xFF0000;
