Modifying Object Colors at Run-time

The SWF File

Color changing in Flash 5 can be done on any movieclip in the movie. The basic idea is to make our movieclip "colorizable" by creating a virtual object, defining it's color and then applying it to our real object. This tutorial is a two step process. First we'll look at the actionscript required to change the color then we'll look at the mouse events and the actionscipt required to execute the color change.
