Hi, I’m making a program for work which is supposed to draw a curve based on the information the user inputs. I have used curveTo , but it seems to be just drawing a straight line. I’ve posted the .fla for you to see what I mean - click in one of the text boxes, press enter, and it only draws it straight. Why is this happening?

P.S. I’m using MX.
