If the shape you want to change the line color of is a simple one you could redraw the shape when somebody clicks on the pallet:
, 0xFF0000, 1); x009900, 0.1);
var my_mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(my_mc);
function drawShape(color:String) {
my_mc.graphics.lineStyle(1
my_mc.graphics.beginFill(0
my_mc.graphics.moveTo(10, 10); // start drawing from this instance.
my_mc.graphics.lineTo(50, 10);
my_mc.graphics.lineTo(50, 50);
my_mc.graphics.lineTo(10, 50);
my_mc.graphics.lineTo(10, 10);
my_mc.graphics.endFill();
}
