Hi guys,

How can I build a screensaver in as3? what is the best approach?

I have been trying to do it without any descent result…

what i have so far

a. is a screen that appear after 5 seconds of inactivity…

b. I managed to generate some elements dynamically…

How can I add these dynamic elements inside the boundaries of my (screen)saver?

Please provide an example as I am newbie to AS3 and it would make more sense to me … thanks a lot
