      I have a very easy question about changing the colour and shape of an object using action scripting. I've created a slider and activated control of the size using action script attached and I just need to know what script to add to make it change colour as it slides as well. Can anyone help me. Thanks

          you can use your movieclip's color object (co=new Color(shape)) which is the easiest to use but gives the least control of the classes for controlling movieclip color.

            Thankyou for your quick response. I have to admit I'm a bit of a dummy when it comes to actionscript . I grabbed this script from a tutorial and it seemed to work changing the size. Could you direct me as to where I would implement this new code to change the colour as well. I need it to change colours gradually from onme colour to the next and to the 3rd colour. I can figure out the hex colours I need to make those transitions I just need to know what part of the code I need to apply it to. If you could fwd an example that would be great. Thanks Tuula

              to make a decent color blend you can use the following code. just copy the code below the dotted line (which adds a new method to movieclips) and paste it into your fla before you use the new method:
