Im building a pretty simple drawing board in flash, i got this code from this forum and it works fine (there is more to it but this is the drawing part)[code]This works fine. But i want to be able to erase the drawings, step by step this is ths tricky part, ive looked everywhere(ok not everywhere) but in a whole lot of places but the only thing i found is how i could delete everything with removeChild and that in not what i want. Maybe i need to change the function abowe? Please help me to get in the right direction. What should i read about /look at?

View 7 Repliesi spent alot of time and created an animation all in code, something like 200 lines long- so i wont post it on here unless one request. Now i want to run this animation in reverse...and I don't exactly know how to do this. Well i have some clue but have no idea of how to execute:
Choice 1-I i guess there is always the grunt work and copy paste and just plug in the opposite of everything i did...but yea that would take some time...
Choice 2- I guess i can attempt to create a class to house this animation and then some how play in reverse?? - if so how?
Choice 3- have some kind of wrestle with frames and have it run as a frame animation- then i can use prevFrame and nextFrame?
Anyone care to shed some light on my dilemma- because i don't even know if this is possible and/or my solutions are even valid

so i'm now working on a mp3 player, and i got stucked with something. so here's my problem: i've a got bar (songBar) on which it will appear the artist and the song name(artist_txt). what i want is when de title_txt width is larger than the songBar.width, the text to scroll from right to left, and when the tween is finished to scroll from left to right(all this tween has to be a loop). if the width of artist_txt is smaller or equal to the songBar.width then artist_txt is aligned in the center of the songBar. all i'm trying to code it's just what you see in winamp player.
