Hello everyone,

I have a vector drawing object inside a parent movieclip. The drawing object is acting as a semi-transparent frame for and image on another layer. the problem is when I scale the parent movieclip the thickness of the drawing object is changing. I know that you can turn off scaling for lines and rectangles, but is there a way to do the equivalent for a vector drawing object?

Thanks for any help,  
Wade
