pencil tool in director?

[misseyshelly webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

im trying to create a director file that could allow the user to draw an object and attach it to an email. i would like to use something similar to the pencil tool that can be adjusted to the ink functionality in macromedia flash. does anyone know if this is at all possible? cheers mshelly ;-)

i'm not sure quite what you mean by adjusted to the ink functionality
in flash, but within director the command you would be looking for to
do this is setPixel.

e.g.

on mouseDown me
repeat while the stillDown = true
member("paint").image.setPixel(the mouseH, the mouseV, rgb(255, 0,
0))
updateStage
end repeat
end


of course you'll need to play with that a bit to get it working
smoother, but this will get you started.

hth,

regards,

richie
