Some color issues

SWF Viewer sets Background color to white by default. Should just leave the setting empty, because passing white means the MTASC setting is ignored.

My color setting from the AS2 Builder was not initially passed to MTASC with –header flag, so it wasn’t getting used. It seemed to get picked up after restarting Eclipse.

This is definitely working better. Color settings made in AS2 Builder can now be seen in the output .swf. But the SWF viewer settings are a bit misleading. There is a text area where you can set the background color. But the HTML template no longer references this variable. So the setting is now ignored.

What I was hoping for was to simply change the default color in the SWF Viewer settings, from #FFFFF to the empty string. This way, the default color of the .swf will come through. But you can override it per .swf if you want.

i added another checkbox "Change SWF Background Color". you can set a color and it will be used for the html page - if you check the option the same color will be used as parameter for the flash movie otherwise an empty string is used. a bit hackish but it works.
