How about making the doughnut shape as a movieclip and dynamically applying it as a mask layer to a gradient filled cirle you create at run-time? You could even draw the mask layer at run-time instead of using a pre-drawn one.

After putting a couple of hours on the problem, I am still in a daze on how would one go about making a doughnut shape (circle with cut-out in the center) using the drawing API.

I'm not talking about drawing a circle using:

lineStyle(BIGNUMBERHERE, color, alpha);

I'd like to put in a gradient fill into a doughnut shape. And it has to be a doughnut, not a simulation of it (ie. not by drawing 2 circles over each other and keeping the center cirlce the same as the background color). Real dunkin' doughnut!

Any ideas?

Thanks for your time.
