Mouse trail questions [renamed]

[bum]

on this mouse trail (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/mousetrailer.htm) . I have two questions:

1. how can I change the color of the text?
2. how can I replace the text to gif ?

Thanks in advance :)!

well, if you would look at the actionscript dictionary provided with your flashprogram, you would see that there are several textfieldformat properties....



letterformat.color = "#FF43FF";


Would change the color of the text ....

2. Replace the text to gif?
How do you mean that? Replacing "Kirupa is the...." to "gif" ?
Or using a gif-image ?

3pinter,

Thanks for answering my first question and yes, using a gif-image instead of using text.

Instead of [code] mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip(LTR+"l", LTR);
mc.createTextField(letters[LTR]+"t", LTR, LTR*spacing, 10, 20, 20);[/As]just put[code] mc = _root.attachMovie('yourLinkageName', LTR+"l", LTR);[/As]
