heh. i wondered if something was up. you're definitely someone to rtfm
before asking, and fillcolor was pretty straightforward!
you can edit with the shape palette, command 7. there's a fore- and
back-color window there.

that would be
sprite(somelineSpriteNumber).foreColor = someIndexNumber
ie
sprite(2).foreColor = 33
be forewarned you cannot change the color of the member, at least I can't
seem to find a way, but you can adjust the linecolor of the sprite that
contains a line member.
Make any sens

I'm getting careless in my old age.
I should have mentioned that I tried the fillcolor property.
On further investigation, it turns it's not a vector shape, but a plain old
shape. I checked the properties, and it is a #line, not a fil
Hi Kerry
Me being the usual smart a@# at night, did you try
member(someVectorCastMember).fillcolor = rgb(128,128,128)
or if you want a gradient:
member(someVectorCastMember).fillcolor = rgb(128,128,128)
member(someVectorCastMember).fillmode = #gradient
member(someVectorCastMember).endColor =
member("vectormember").fillcolor = whichcolor
should do the trick.
the fillmode can't be set to #none.
not sure about authoring, though i would think it would work from the
vector shape window, like the paint window.

Hullo, night owls and Aussies :-)
How can I change the fill color of a vector shape from Lingo? For that
matter, how can I change it from the authoring environment? It seems that
editing a vector-shape cast member just brings up its property window.

Hi Bizzotto,
For a field member, change its rect property. For a text member, change
its width and height properties. You should make their boxType
properties #scroll or #fixed to change their height.

Where does the event at the start of your callStack originate?
If in doubt, debug.

Still weird though that
sprite(the currentSpriteNum).member = "Instrument2_Note"
works!
?

You're trying to set a sprite's member to a string, instead of a member. Do
this instead:
sprite(me.spriteNum).member = member("Instrument2_Note")
That'll clear the error up. Not that that info answers your question:

Thanks. That fixed it!

Do you want to change the font size of the text as well? If so, the best
way is to create a flash movie, pass it the text you want displayed, and
change the sprite's width and height properties. The text wi

Hi
How (if possible) do I add members to a filmloop in lingo?
I create the filmloop using new(#filmloop, ...).
The intention for this is simple: I wish to create a sprite container,

Thanx in advance

Try and remove the behavior from the "scriptInstanceList" of the sprite. Off the top
of my head that should do the trick for you. It's easiest if you added it dynamically,
but I assume you didn't as you probably wouldn't ask this if you were.
Hope this helps

I have a little question. Is it possible to remove a behavior script from
a cast member during a special event?
