hex color

[chefkeifer]

can you apply this to an image and/or text

 

import com.greensock.*; 
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
import flash.display.*;

var colors:Object = {left:0xB8E46F, right:0x0066CC};
TweenMax.to(colors, 3, {hexColors:{left:0xff9900, right:0x663399}, onUpdate:drawGradient});
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(mySprite);
drawGradient();
function drawGradient():void {
var m:Matrix = new Matrix();
m.createGradientBox(220, 220, 0, 0, 0);
mySprite.graphics.beginGradientFill(GradientType.LINEAR, [colors.left, colors.right], [1, 1], [0x00, 0xFF], m, SpreadMethod.PAD);
mySprite.graphics.drawRect(0,0,220,220);
}

Are you saying you want to apply a gradient to text or an image? You could use a mask I suppose, yes. Or BitmapData, but it'd be more complex.
