Hi fellow flashcoders. I'm currently working on a project where our preview area is on an https address. For some reason when I try to access the netstream.bytesTotal property the returned value is the same as the netstream.bytesLoaded (e.g if the bytesLoaded returns 6000 the bytesTotal

Right... That does make sense except for the draw the point... Shouldn't that have an X and Y coordinate? It does: it's the sum of two other points with an x and y coordinate. I'm mostly a Director person so these vector sums are done natively: Flash doesn't do anything so useful. But

One final thought and then I'll shut up. If you want to make your scribble smoother, you can make the randomness 'second-order'. That is, instead of randomising the change to the error factor, you could randomise the *rate* of change of the error factor. So you now keep track of two values,
