Richard,

Perhaps I haven't played around with this enough, but I'm having problems with the basic drawing issue. For example, if I do the following:

on mouseup
   choose pointer tool
   choose polygon tool
end mouseup

and then start drawing on a buffered player object, I get an image object on top of the player object... not a graphic object. There doesn't seem to be much I can do with that image object to distinguish the polygon I drew on it. How can I create an actual polygon graphic object over the player object? What's the code I need to use?

Thanks Richard, but I'm aware of that piece. It's the actual drawing I'm having trouble implementing. How do I give that functionality to a user during runtime?

Ah. That's particularly difficult with players, as they generally lose their image while the pointer tool is active.


You could cheat: grab a screenshot of the player and place it on top and then hide the player when switching tool modes. That should let your drawing tools work without mucking up the apparent image. When you resume browse mode just hide or discard the image and show the player again.
