Hi there!

Is there any possibility to draw lines or rectangles with a commandline in ActionScript?

Draw a rectancle 100px by 100px
Draw a diagonal line and set line properties to hairline

You now have a line
To manipulate this line adjust _x, _y, _xScale, _yscale, _rotation

Not the cleanest but it works

if you’re using mx there’s a whole drawing api

moveTo(x,y);
lineStyle();
beginFill(0xcc0000);
lineTo(x,y);
endFill();
…

have a look in the a/s dictionary for usage details
