Hello,

I would like to create a spotlight light effect in flash which I could animate to fade in.  
I don’t want the drag mask thing, just a nice standard black gradient circle that surrounds the scene.

Could anyone point me in the right direction or tutorial for this?

Thanks for helping!

:love:
