For an old project I did this 'Gradient Tween Editor' which might be a good starting point for what you want to do: http://motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/gradientTween/asynchronousTween.html
Here's an example (on the right-hand side) that tweens from one gradient to another over time: http://motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/gradientTween/asynchronousTween.html On the left is the same tween, but not over time but from top to bottom - the first horizontal, 1 pixel high stripe corresponds with the 'first frame' of the tween on the right. The stripe at the bottom corresponds with the 'last frame'. See the code below! hth -------------- Andreas Weber // for the class see: // http://motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/gradientTween/gradientTweenEditor.html import com.motiondraw.GradientTween this.createEmptyMovieClip('gradient_mc', this.getNextHighestDepth()) gT = new Object(); gT.colors1 = [10092288,153,65331]; gT.alphas1 = [100,100,100]; gT.ratios1 = [0,208,255]; gT.rotation1 = 0; gT.colors2 = [13052923,16750848,2266464]; gT.alphas2 = [100,100,100]; gT.ratios2 = [0,130,255]; gT.rotation2 = 0; gT.gradModeRotation = 'linear'; gT.gradWidth = 250; // Note: in the asynchronous view // the gradHeight is the number of frames gT.gradHeight = 250; gT.gradient_mc =_level0.gradient_mc; gT.draw = true;// draws the 'synchronous' tween var myGrad:GradientTween = new GradientTween( gT.colors1, gT.alphas1, gT.ratios1, gT.rotation1, gT.colors2, gT.alphas2, gT.ratios2, gT.rotation2, gT.gradModeRotation, gT.gradWidth, gT.gradHeight, gT.gradient_mc, gT.draw); // draws the 'asynchronous tween' var i = 0; var c = this.createEmptyMovieClip('canvas', this.getNextHighestDepth()); c._x = 300; this.onEnterFrame = function(){ var mg = myGrad.multiGradient[i]; mg.r = mg.rotation; c.beginGradientFill(mg.gradModeRotation, mg.colors, mg.alphas, mg.rotation, mg.matrix); c.moveTo(0, 0); c.lineTo(gT.gradWidth, 0); c.lineTo(gT.gradWidth, gT.gradHeight); c.lineTo(0, gT.gradHeight); c.lineTo(0, 0); c.endFill(); i++; if(i == gT.gradHeight + 1){ i = 0; } } -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott Brantley Sent: Freitag, 15. Dezember 2006 20:59 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] dynamically tween gradient I'm building a website. The background for each of the sections of the site is a different colored linear gradient. Does anyone have any ideas on how to build a class, prototype or series of functions that will dynamically change the background gradient from one colored gradient to another over a period of time? If anyone has any pre-built code and wouldn't mind sharing I will greatly appreciate it!
