Re: FLASH:Masking

[Helen Triolo]

That's a cool effect, but it's not done with a movieclip (Victor and

Ricardo are right -- it can't be).  It's just a graphic with the

drag/lockcenter code in one layer and a mask layer that's another

graphic. Change the behavior of your movieclip to graphic and it should

work.
