hello, if anyone's got a mo, I'm going mad..
<code>
function
makeBG(roundness:Number,w:Number,h:Number,colour:String,targ:MovieClip):Movi
eClip
{
var bg:MovieClip = targ.createEmptyMovieClip("button_bg",1);
with(bg)
{
lineStyle(0,0,0);
beginFill(colour,100);
moveTo(roundness,0);
lineTo(w-roundness,0);
curveTo(w,0,w,roundness);
lineTo(w,h-roundness);
curveTo(w,h,w-roundness,h);
lineTo(roundness,h);
curveTo(0,h,0,h-roundness);
lineTo(0,roundness);
curveTo(0,0,roundness,0);
endFill();
}
return bg;
}
var buttBack = makeBG(4,140,20,"0xFFCCCC",this);
trace(buttBack._x + ":" + buttBack._y);
</code>
can someone paste that in a blank movie and run it, you'll see that even
though it traces "0:0" and as far as I can tell the "pen" never goes into
negative numbers, the shape's top left hand corner is above and to the left
of 0,0??????
cheers,
tom.
