hexColor difficulty

[larryfroot]

Hello, and thank you once again for all your time and your effort. It never ceases to amaze me.

 

I have searched the forum before posting here, btw.

 

I'm using AS2

 

Anyways...I have a nested movie clip with a radial gradient applied. I am trying to apply hexColor plugin (I have activated it) to that particular mc.

Unfortunately using it in what I might call the 'bog standard' way fails to tween the mc.

 

trigger_mc.onRelease=function(){
TweenLite.to(home_mc.home_clip_mc.gradient_bg_mc, 2,{hexColors:{left:0xff9900, right:0x663399});
}

 

Any help or guidance would be most appreciated. Thank you for your help, both past and present.

Are you trying to tween the gradient? The code you posted literally changes the home_mc.home_clip_mc.gradient_bg_mc.left and home_mc.home_clip_mc.gradient_bg_mc.right properties. I can't see the rest of your code, so I'm not sure exactly what's going on, but I'm guessing you need an onUpdate that would redraw the gradient on every frame. See the hexColors demo in the Plugin Explorer for an example.
