Re: [Flashcoders] animating into bitmaps data, recording stop points

I have this data available for each stop point so re-creating the bitmap isn't a big deal, but I am concerned with the lag in doing this because the animation is script generated and very complex i.e. it may take a few (or up to 5 seconds) to re-generate the data for each of these frames. The data

I'm working on an animation of sorts that uses the Flash drawing api to draw into bitmapdata. At various intervals throughout the animation I want to record screenshots and be able to step back and view these various stages of the animation. The only way I can think of achieving this is creating
