Try this:
[Inspectable(defaultValue="#FFFF66",type="Color")]
public var bgcolor:Number = 0xFFFF66;
You might be better off using a getter/setter since you will have to redraw the
rect_mc each time the color changes.
private var rect_mc:MovieClip;
private var __bgColor:Number = 0xFFFF66;
private var __hasInitialized:Boolean = false;
private function draw() {
setBgColor();
__hasInitialized = true;
}
private function setBgColor():Void {
// draw stuff, using __bgColor
rect_mc.clear();
rect_mc.beginFill(__bgColor);
// etc..
rect_mc.endFill();
}
[Inspectable(defaultValue="#FFFF66",type="Color")]
public function get bgColor():Number {
return __bgColor;
}
public function set bgColor(val:Number):Void {
__bgColor = val;
if(__hasInitialized) setBgColor();
}
