Subject: RE: [flasher] connecting 2 points.

Pretty easy actually. You need to create a hairline at a 45 degree angle
with width and heights of 100. For this example I'm using 2 movie clips
named holder1 and holder 2 to serve as the points. In the line(which should
be a movie clip) add these actions:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x = _root.holder1._x;
_y = _root.holder1._y;
_xscale = _root.holder2._x - _root.holder1._x;
_yscale = _root.holder2._y - _root.holder1._y;
}

I've posted a couple samples:

and I did a line graphing tool a while back. You can view it here:

or download the Fla(it's only in F4 right now):

Hope that helps you out.

How can have flash dynamically move a line that connects 2 dynamic points.
I
need to basically create a line graph. There are a number of points that
will be poitioned depending on data. How can I connect these points with
lines? I know I've seen this I just can't figure ouot how it's done.
