Example
The following example draws a box on the Stage. When the user clicks the box graphic, it
removes the graphic from the Stage.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("box_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
box_mc.onRelease = function() {
this.clear();
};
drawBox(box_mc, 10, 10, 320, 240);
function drawBox(mc:MovieClip, x:Number, y:Number, w:Number, h:Number):Void
{
mc.lineStyle(0);
mc.beginFill(0xEEEEEE);
mc.moveTo(x, y);
mc.lineTo(x+w, y);
mc.lineTo(x+w, y+h);
mc.lineTo(x, y+h);
mc.lineTo(x, y);
mc.endFill();
