Hi Folks:
I'm animating the dealing of a deck of cards.  The animation is not a 
problem thanks to excellent AS3 methods!  What the issue is is I'd 
like to deal each card individually.  What currently happens is I put 
everything in a loop and animate the cards moving from point A to 
point B.  However, the end result is all the cards moving in unison 
from point A to point B.  Is there a "Yield" facility in AS3 where I 
can yield control to the Flash player while I'm looping through  
rendering each card?  I know in C++ and VB you can yield control to 
the O/S and I realize we're in a different situation here but is 
there something like that in AS3 and Flex?  The pseudo code might be 
as follows:

           Create (Embed) Bitmaps
           Create card bitmap classes
           While (isPlaying)
           {
              /* Yield */
              render card(i)
              moveTo (positionXY)
              i++
           }
              
I hope this makes sense...:-)

Cheers,
Dave
