hey! If i have a sprite that im using in my flash movie…  
I know you can use

sprite.graphics

and draw vector graphics

but what if i want the shape to be something really complex … is there a way to attach a vector shape to it… that ive drawn in the flash IDE or… can i take a shape and convert it to code somehow… dont know if this makes sense??

thanks
