Hi,

I am making an application which will have a black background with light text. My tutor has suggested that for accessibility there should be the option to change the background colour to white and also the the text throughout the application to black. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

thanks

Gavin

how many different text fields are you using in your movie?
are you using stylesheets to format the text within those textfields?

Changing text color throughout your movie may prove a much more difficult task.

IMHO you can not reset the backgroung color of the flash movie within AS, as this is defined by the embedding HTML.

But you can create an MC that is used the the Background and change the color of this MC using the Color Object:
e.g.:
var color:Color = new Color(_root.my_mc);
color.setRGB(0xff00ff);
