A decimal value that is multiplied with the alpha transparency channel value.

If you set the alpha transparency value of a display object directly by using the alpha property of the DisplayObject instance, it affects the value of the alphaMultiplier property of that display object's transform.colorTransform property.

A number from -255 to 255 that is added to the alpha transparency channel value after it has been multiplied by the alphaMultiplier value.

A decimal value that is multiplied with the blue channel value.

A number from -255 to 255 that is added to the blue channel value after it has been multiplied by the blueMultiplier value.

The RGB color value for a ColorTransform object.

When you set this property, it changes the three color offset values (redOffset, greenOffset, and blueOffset) accordingly, and it sets the three color multiplier values (redMultiplier, greenMultiplier, and blueMultiplier) to 0. The alpha transparency multiplier and offset values do not change.

When you pass a value for this property, use the format 0xRRGGBB. RR, GG, and BB each consist of two hexadecimal digits that specify the offset of each color component. The 0x tells the ActionScript compiler that the number is a hexadecimal value.

A decimal value that is multiplied with the green channel value.

A number from -255 to 255 that is added to the green channel value after it has been multiplied by the greenMultiplier value.

A decimal value that is multiplied with the red channel value.

A number from -255 to 255 that is added to the red channel value after it has been multiplied by the redMultiplier value.

Creates a ColorTransform object for a display object with the specified color channel values and alpha values.

Concatenates the ColorTranform object specified by the second parameter with the current ColorTransform object and sets the current object as the result, which is an additive combination of the two color transformations. When you apply the concatenated ColorTransform object, the effect is the same as applying the second color transformation after the original color transformation.

Formats and returns a string that describes all of the properties of the ColorTransform object.

1. The constructor creates a new sprite object target.
2. The CustomButton() constructor calls the draw() method, which draws a gradient square in the sprite.
3. The CustomButton() constructor adds a click event listener for the sprite, which is handled by the clickHandler() method.
4. In the clickHandler() method, two properties are set to the redOffset and blueOffset properties of the current color transformation. Each is adjusted by 25. Then the transform.colorTransform property of the square sprite is modified to use the new offset values. Each time the user clicks the square, the call to the clickHandler() method modifies the color of the square, by augmenting its red color value and diminishing its blue color value.
