Movie Clip won't tween after colour changed

jaucourt · December 21st, 2004, 11:48 AM

I have a movie clip that I set the colour of using actionscript, before it goes through a motion tween. For some reason, after the colour has been set, the motion tween doesn't take place. Anyone know what could be happening?

One question: why dont you move it using _x and _y coords instead of tweening?
Now regarding your problem, could you paster your AS code over?

I have already done the workaround to change the size (sorry, it's a 'size' tween!) by setting a function to fire every 100ms. Just wondering why the 'normal' flash tween stops working when you change the colour of a movieclip.

The actionscript I used to change the colour of the movieclip is as follows:

Code:

    new Color(_root.topbg).setRGB(colourValue);

Thanks
