If you can apply a textfield background color in AS, why can't you do so using Flash's GUI panels?
All it offers is changing the text color. Same goes for the _alpha property as well...you can set it in AS but not using the GUI.

What's up with that?

I guess because you're changing a defined property of a named object?
