The following example lets you draw lines with the mouse pointer using the Drawing API and
listener objects. Press the Backspace or Delete key to remove the lines that you draw.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mouseListener:Object = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseDown = function() {
this.drawing = true;
canvas_mc.moveTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
canvas_mc.lineStyle(3, 0x99CC00, 100);
};
mouseListener.onMouseUp = function() {
this.drawing = false;
};
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() {
if (this.drawing) {
canvas_mc.lineTo(_xmouse, _ymouse);
}
updateAfterEvent();
};
Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);
//
var keyListener:Object = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.isDown(Key.DELETEKEY) || Key.isDown(Key.BACKSPACE)) {
canvas_mc.clear();
}
};
Key.addListener(keyListener);
