Hi all. I’m running flash mx btw.

I was wondering how to produce the effect of a line being drawn…

originally i tried using shape tween, but that just gets serious screwed up…

the line isn’t straight, it has a fair few bends in it… and i want it to appear as if it’s being drawn.

any ideas plz? :o
