    Writing code funtion is pink not blue

    I am working in Adobe Animate CC

    CCUploadTextColour.jpg

    I am following an AS3 tutorial. The script I have attached(screenshot) works perfectly but 'function' and 'if' are displaying in pink in my Actions window yet are showing in Blue in the example I am following.
    Does any wise member know why the difference in colour between the two examples. I am just a bit confused as to why my script shows 'function' and 'if' in pink.

    Thanks guys,

    Peace.

    Not what you're asking for but that code can be condensed with the switch statement: http://www.republicofcode.com/tutori...ash/as3switch/. I can't think of any real answer for what you're asking.

    if you click under the x of the actions window on top right you can click preferences and change the syntax colors, the example likely had it customized.

    That is a possibility. I just didn't think it was likely considering it shows up differently in app vs in screenshot.

    Thanks guys. Alloy Bacon you had it right. Although now in Adobe Animate that menu in the Actions Panel has been removed. I used the keyboard shortcut Ctrl U to bring up the preferences. Seems like the Actions Window has been going backwards since they renamed Flash to Animate.

    Thanks again for the help guys.
