Greetings. It’s been a while, but I’ve been caught up in all sorts of things. How’ve you been? How’re the kids?

I’m subclassing DisplayObject (not directly), but I’m doing it in an interesting way, and I want to override some of the properties of DisplayObject, or remove them altogether. For instance, the [FONT=“Courier New”]rotation[/FONT] property of DisplayObject is relatively worthless in my new class, but there is another public property of my class very similar to [FONT=“Courier New”]rotation[/FONT] that I’d really, really like to call [FONT=“Courier New”]rotation[/FONT]. Is this at all possible?
