[Xerte] Constraining freehand

[Julian Tenney]

Not sure...

Gotta say, one of the things I love about AS3 is event handling. But that's not going to help here.

Back up a bit - what do you need to do?

You're probably overriding the draw methods event handlers...

It's weird.
As soon as I define the icon I'm adding the addDraw to as an event target (Press. Release, rollover, whatever, the draw function fails.

If you mask the draw, then even if drawing continues out of sight, it isn't ugly. Does that work?

OK, how about targeting an addDraw.


I want to catch the onRelease event, but when I add the target icon (the one addDraw is appending to), the drawing function itself stops working, though I do get the event when I release the mouse.

Wonder why it is blocking the draw?
