Here's one I just made (and tested) from a draw circle prototype that then draws another circle in reverse (before the endfill is applied -- necessary to get a cutout): // r1 = radius of outer circle // r2 = radius of inner circle (cutout) // x, y = center of donut

That's a very long keyword. But yes, that's crucial. I decided to write it up so I wouldn't forget again that it's only the mask that requires a reverse cutout: http://flash-creations.com/notes/dynamic_drawingapi.php#cutout Helen Navneet Behal wrote: Ah.. reading the code again along with
