Kind’of like [www.youdraw.com](http://www.youdraw.com) but of course using flash instead java or whatever it is they’re using. thanks ---

This is excellent, I’ve been looking for just this application. I need to know if anyone can direct me to a tutorial that would also allow to draw a circle, or perhaps what kind of mods can be done to this tutorial to add that capability. > \*Originally posted by Jubba \* > \*\*[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/drawingboard\_flash5.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/drawingboard_flash5.asp) \*\* ---

Yes, that’s right. A very simple drawing application, where you can draw straight lines & circles. > \*Originally posted by ilyaslamasse \* > \*\*You mean something like a circle tool? pom :asian: \*\* ---

Well, not sure. I want to have a web-enabled drawing application. Simple, not too sophisticated. Can you recommend a different techology that can also be web-enabled? > \*Originally posted by ilyaslamasse \* > \*\*Sure you want this with Flash 5? ☹ > \*\* ---

Oh no, I just meant it would be easier with Flash MX, that’s all… It depends on what version you have. pom :asian: ---

Putting this code in the first frame of your animation will allow you to drag circles on the scene. Fun! ```auto MovieClip.prototype.drawCircle = function(r, x, y){ this.moveTo(x+r, y); this.curveTo(r+x, -0.4142*r+y, 0.7071*r+x, -0.7071*r+y); this.curveTo(0.4142*r+x, -r+y, x, -r+y); this.curveTo(-0.4142*r+x, -r+y, -0.7071*r+x, -0.7071*r+y); this.curveTo(-r+x, -0.4142*r+y, -r+x, y); this.curveTo(-r+x, 0.4142*r+y, -0.7071*r+x, 0.7071*r+y); this.curveTo(-0.4142*r+x, r+y, x, r+y); this.curveTo(0.4142*r+x, r+y, 0.7071*r+x, 0.7071*r+y); this.curveTo(r+x, 0.4142*r+y, r+x, y); } _root.lineStyle(2,0x000000,100); _root.onMouseDown=function(){ x=_xmouse; y=_ymouse; } _root.onMouseUp=function(){ var dx=_xmouse-x; var dy=_ymouse-y; this.drawCircle(Math.sqrt(dx*dx+dy*dy),x,y); } ``` pom :asian: ---

My final plan was to make something like that on [www.youdraw.com](http://www.youdraw.com) but with flash and some basic drawing tools. Although im gonna make it more of a message board than anything else. If anyone would like to help me on this, please email me at [hojo@cfl.rr.com](mailto:hojo@cfl.rr.com). Thanks again fellas ---

Hey Thank for your help. I’m a bit of a newbie, so I have one other question (general question). I would like to know how to scale a movie clip within a flash movie. I know that doesn’t make much since, so here’s an example, I want to drag a movie clip that’s looks like an ARROW onto a field. I then want to scale the arrow to fit between two points. The arrow will be one size, and I want to allow the user to scale it up or down depending on the other elements in the file. JB ---
