I'm trying to draw a line on a Canvas using the Graphic API as follows: myCanvas.graphics.clear(); myCanvas.graphics.lineStyle(2); myCanvas.graphics.moveTo(0,0); myCanvas.graphics.lineTo(100,100);
This works fine as long as the Canvas does not have a backgroundColor style property set. Once the backgroundColor property is set, my drawn line is "behind the background color". If I change the backroundAlpha to a value closer to 0, I can see my drawn line "through the background". How can I draw my line on top of the background? I tried using a Shape object to draw into and add the Shape object as a child to the Canvas but get an exception: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.core.IUIComponent. I guess children of Canvas have to be IUIComponentS. What is the best strategy for drawing on a Canvas with a backgroundColor? Thanks Vijay
