hi,
i made a movie that uses actionscript to generate random color to color the objects in it, but when i load the movie into another movie, the movie has no color. what am i doing wrong?

You load, or you import??

If in the code you are using any references to _root, than that may cause
the problem. Playing the loaded file by itself, _root is the main timeline
of the movie; played from within another movie into which the movie was
loaded, _root would refer to the timeline into which the colormovie was
loaded. So in that case, you'd have to either adapt your paths, or load into
a level, or maybe _lockroot is of help.
