[clutter] change color of actor on button press event

["Patrick Shirkey" <pshirkey boosthardware com>]

Hi,

What is the best method to change the color of an actor dynamically?

In the code I posted yesterday there is a set_color() function. It works
when the actor is created and initially displayed.

I tried adding a call to queue_redraw() in the set_color() function but
that only kicks in after button-release-event. I would like to change the
color of the actor on button-press-event.


    def set_color(self, color):
        """Fill the shape with the color given in parameter.
        color may be a Clutter.Color object or a string representing
        the color name.
        """
        if isinstance(color, Clutter.Color):
            self._color = color
        else:
            self._color = Clutter.Color()
            self._color.from_string(color)
