Hey all,

I don’t mess with the basic drawing tools in Flash too much, but does anyone know why I cannot distort my mc? I can distort it while pressing the control button and moving an endpoint. It shows a preview distort, but when I release my mouse, the mc snaps back into its’ original position.

Thanks in advance.
