Using MoveTo, lineTo and CreateEmptyMovieClip (Drawing Object)
hi everyone,
I can't help being impressed with FlashMX. I just wish I could learn all the
new stuff as fast as possible. I came across the drawing object... and ended

Where can you find the new DRAWING Methods?
If you take the actions panel, you will find them in Objects> Movie>
MovieClip> Drawing Methods.
They will allow you to draw basic objects from within the actions window. You
will have a set of actions determining the form and position of the object you
are creating, and you will use the 'createEmptyMovieClip' method to create a
container that will hold the new drawing (compare it to an instance if you were
to do things manually).
