    Draw lines and rectangles using actionscript

    I bumpped into a trouble that a lot of mathematical functions are unavailable in FL
    is there any functions that accepts points or coordinates than draws a line or a rectangle?

    while you can't just plug into a function there are ways of creating dynamic drawings using a movie clip that has a line in it and then changing the _xscale and _yscale of the movie clip to make it the right length and pointing in the right direction.

    normally this means to draw a hairline (very important that it be a hairline since that won't add any dimension to the line to throw things off. your hairline should be at a 45 degree angle pointing down and to the right starting at the registration mark.
