Availability

Flash Player 6.

Usage

my_mc.endFill() : Void

Parameters

None.

Returns

Nothing.

Description

Method; applies a fill to the lines and curves added since the last call to beginFill() or

beginGradientFill(). Flash uses the fill that was specified in the previous call to beginFill()

beginGradientFill(). If the current drawing position does not equal the previous position

specified in a

moveTo() method and a fill is defined, the path is closed with a line and then filled.

Example

The following example creates a square with red fill on the Stage.

this.createEmptyMovieClip("square_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());

square_mc.beginFill(0xFF0000);

square_mc.moveTo(10, 10);

square_mc.lineTo(100, 10);

square_mc.lineTo(100, 100);

square_mc.lineTo(10, 100);

square_mc.lineTo(10, 10);

square_mc.endFill();
