FLA: [http://funplus.elementfx.com/vectors.fla](http://funplus.elementfx.com/vectors.fla)

As you can see, when I try to draw a line, it gets dragged until it draws a new one, and looks really bad. The FLA is attached, I don’t want to bother explaining everything. Using a with statement on a movieclip in the \_root for the line still makes it drag with the circle, I don’t know why. How could I make it nicer, less choppy, and not drag with the circle?  
EDIT: Okay, I updated it. It still has the problems, though, of the line being attached to the circle.
