I am trying to use this method here:

to create an inversed mask of the shape I have drawn (lineTo) inside a movieClip…
my clip layout/nesting is as follows:
parent.parent clip (contentContainer)
—parent clip (faceContainer)–
-----lineContainer (holds the shape/object Im using for my source of the inverse mask
-----maskContainer (empty clip to hold the dynamically created clip from the inverse mask method above)
-----imageContainer (the place where the dynamically loaded image gets loaded into, and is ‘masked’ by the inversedMask method)
now this all works fine… except I want to add a mask to the parent clip thats holding these 3 nested clips…(faceContainer)… or even to the parent clip of that (contentContainer)…
but when I do so… and then invoke the inversedMask() method from above,…the whole imageContainer goes blank…
now since the only REAL masking is the maskContainer, masking the imageContainer… why cant I add a mask manualy or through AS to the faceContainer or the contentContainer clips?
I cant seem to figure it out…
any ideas or suggestion is helpful…
this ‘IS’ AS2 by the way…
thanks
