exactly! the goal is to build up a complex drawing step by step under the control of ActionScript. So the style can be modified, it can be influenced by the user while its being drawn, the animation can be synchronised with external events, reversed, speeded up, slowed down, paused, branched etc. ActionScript is GREAT for the control. But the IDE is GREAT for all the initial inputting of lines, curves and shapes (with its ability to edit lines, use guide layers, snap to objects, align objects, adjust control points etc). but can ActionScript gain access to this IDE-stored info...??? _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
