FlxBitmapText setColor [Closed] [Pending]

I'm stuck on trying to set a gray color to a bitmap font:

tf = new FlxBitmapText(loadFont("pf_westa_seven_condensed_regular_8"));
tf.text = "Testing gray color";
tf.textColor = 0xff808080;
tf.useTextColor = true;
tf.x = 200;
tf.y = 200;
add(tf);

it always shows white as you can see it on that screenshot:

What am I missing?

@xbelanch said in FlxBitmapText setColor:
well, the API ref said Result color of text will be multiplication of textColor and color
what is your text's original color?

0xffffffff ;)

@ag-w thanks so much! that's the answer. For the next time before I post for a help I'll be aware of github open issues list apart from reading the manual.
