Is there a dynamic way to draw lines drawing something?

I want to have lines draw something like a flower or something… But the only way I have been told how to is with keyframe after keyframe… This can not be… I have to make something like 300 frames if I want something cool…
:frowning:

Is there anything more dynamic like with aftereffects or 3d programs or plug ins for apps ?? Any that live on OSX ?? ’

I cant do this in Flash anymore :snooze:
