I suspect that what you need is:

saveMovie the moviePath&"Update"

It will save uncompressed movies only, so you can't do it in shockwave.
You can also use the fileXtra or Mui dialog box to allow the user to specify
the new filename himself, or simply make a text field into which he can type
the new movie name. You (and the user) will need to send both the projector
and the saved movie, since you can't save "over" the projector movie.

Also, you need a way to store actual image. If you work in D8 You could look
into imaging lingo, or you could try some of the vector shapes lingo.

A clumsy workaround in D7 is to simply make a cast member that's the image
of the stage. member("dummyBitmap").picture = the stage.picture
And have that cast member replace the background image, clearing all the
sprites on the top, so users can add lines to it But this is a very clumsy
workaround, and they won't be able to erase or change existing lines.

Another way might be to store sprite positions, colour and other properties
in a text file - Either externally with FileIo or just save it into a text
field and use the saveMovie method.

Hopefully, any of this stuff will point you to the right direction.
