MovieClip.loadMovie() 589

Description

Method; draws a line using the current line style from the current drawing position to (x, y); the

current drawing position is then set to (

x, y). If the movie clip that you are drawing in contains

content that was created with the Flash drawing tools, calls to

lineTo() are drawn underneath

the content. If you call

lineTo() before any calls to the moveTo() method, the current drawing

position defaults to (

0, 0). If any of the parameters are missing, this method fails and the current

drawing position is not changed.

You can extend the methods and event handlers of the MovieClip class by creating a subclass.

Example

The following example draws a triangle with a 5-pixel, solid magenta line and a partially

transparent blue fill:

this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle_mc", 1);

triangle_mc.beginFill(0x0000FF, 30);

triangle_mc.lineStyle(5, 0xFF00FF, 100);

triangle_mc.moveTo(200, 200);

triangle_mc.lineTo(300, 300);

triangle_mc.lineTo(100, 300);

triangle_mc.lineTo(200, 200);

triangle_mc.endFill();
