FLASH: Drawing Circle with Math?

[Jefferis Peterson]

I am experimenting with Flash 5.   Is it possible to draw a circle with

math functions rather than the vector graphics?

I've defined the variables, I think, but I can't figure out a way to

create the circle on the timeline... there is no "draw" function.


>r = radius;

>c = PI(r*r);

>var r=2;


Is it true that you can't add a on mouse event to a frame but only to an MC? 


I tried to get x and y pos from a mouseclick on the blank screen, but it

won't allow me to add that in the Actions panel [dimmed grey]. 


Also,  is there a graph somewhere that gives approximate x,y positions

numerically on a grid so I could get a feel for the average stage?   The

0,0 coordinates in the upper left corner are the reverse of what I would

normally think... should be bottom left.   Are the y positions greater

the further they descend towards the bottom of the movie?
