    Hi,

    Flash only displays web safe colours (all 216 of them) in the movie background, so therefore yours isn't available, sorry. A workaround would be to create a rectangle the same size or slightly bigger than the moviesend it to the back, and in the fill settings, type in your hex number for the colour you want.

    No, there is a way.
    Modify > Movie...
    Use the eye dropper tool to select a colour externally. ie. Fill a webpage or draw with the colour in an image editor, and then just drag the eyedropper tool from flash over the colour you want.
    Ta-da!
