Graphics class

[manually drawing on the stage first in flash IDE]


var gr:Graphics= (this.getChildAt(0) as Shape).graphics;
trace(gr); //[object Graphics]

I can reference the graphics object i had drawn, but if i attempt to do a[FONT=arial][/FONT]nything with it, it disappears.

[FONT=arial black][FONT=arial]I have asked this before… but is there a way to continue editing a shape like this? or is it closed in some way?
