hi all, I have Flash 8 and I am tring to see what would be the best way to set up a background so that it will load a back ground that is not embeded in flash. like a jpeg file. The goal is to make a generic flash file that the client can just change this jpeg file and it will automicly change it and add it to the background of the flash file. this flash file is being use inside different program and it is being used in a kiosk. I think they are using C++ to program it. Also is there any way to set the background transparent? If any one has any good ideas on how to do this or can point me in the right direction that would be great. |

Create a movieclip that is the bottom layer and dynamically load a jpg into the movie. Google "AS LoadMovie"

| Can you use PNG instead of JPEG? Transparency would work better using PNG. |

My friend is using VB.net to code a koisk. We would like if possible to be able to set the background color using the VB.net program. to be able to change background to a RGB color using the external program. I do not know Flash coding, I only know how to do buttons. I am guessing i will need some sort of global varible to set this up. Any help would be great
Thanks.
