The trouble is that Delegate.create _creates a new Function object_ - so the
Delegate object in your removeEventListener call is actually a different
object from in your addEventListener call.
To get around this, simply store the delegate - e.g.:

Um... not quite sure what you're up to here - but it sounds like you're

What you need is:

then

No, you can't instantiate an interface. But I don't think Hans was doing

There's no problem with typing:

beginFill/curveTo/endFill)
- User releases the mouse
So essentially
In the days of old compilers and IDEs I used to use complicated naming
conventions - including the (horrible) Hungarian notation mentioned above
(But it did help at the time. I think. When wading through piles of someone
else's mangled C code.).
Now with more sensible IDEs that can do
Hi Gregory,
Thanks for that.
I am basically plotting/drawing a circle at each point the mouse moves to
while clicked. (This isn't a paint package, it's for something else entirely
- which is why I'm not drawing lines...)
I had already got as far as trying rectangles - they are indeed a lot
Hi Franto,
As far as I understand it, 'import' isn't enough to get a class compiled
into your .swf.
The line:
import sk.sowhat.linuxPlayer.play4dogs.Test;
just tells the compiler that any mention of the word Test in your code will
refer to that class.
If the class isn't compiled into the SWF,

Amen.

Whoops - I'm being dim. These will work just as well:
import sk.sowhat.linuxPlayer.play4dogs.Test;
var dummyVar:Function=Test;
or
var dummyVar:Function=sk.sowhat.linuxPlayer.play4dogs.Test; (with no import)

I'm using an 8-arc method - I'd prefer to find 4-arc (i.e. the quadratic
bezier) but haven't been able to find/work out suitable code. Could you
point me in the right direction?
Many thanks,
