make part of flash loop

[kate8]

Hi,

I have two lines of text in my Flash file, after they fade in; I'd like to make one line of the text looping to keep changing colors. Is it possible? I can't do it in Publish Settings.
Thanks for any helps!!!

yes you could do it with actionscript by either applying a random color to the text or have a list of colors in an array and have the code step through them at predefined intervals.

let me know if you want help with the code

billwatson,

I am not able to open that fla file. I got message:¡± unexpected file format". But when I look at the file, everything seems fine--file extension is .fla, type is flash document. I am using Flash MX. I couldn't figure out what the problem is. Do you have any idea? Thanks!
