A simple utility class that will help you convert a color value (from numbers) to hexadecimal color value.

Basically you can convert the color value to hex string with colorNumber.toString(16);
Now, if you have this shade of blue “13311”, for example, it will be converted to “33ff”.

You can fix that with while(hexColor.length < 6) and add “0” to in front of the hex color output.

Have you ever tried to use the graphics class to draw a rectangle with a lineStyle (stroke) and then set bigger width and height values for the container that holds the graphic? If so, you probably noticed that there is a size difference between a rectangle with lineStyle and a rectangle without lineStyle.

If you trace the width and height values of the container, everything seems to be fine. Only if you run and look at the SWF you’ll notice a visual difference between those two (top image).
