Description

Method; moves the current drawing position to (x, y). If any of the parameters are missing, this method fails and the current drawing position is not changed.

Example

This example draws a triangle with 5-point, solid magenta lines and no fill. The first line creates an empty movie clip to draw with. Inside the with statement, a line type is defined; then the starting drawing position is indicated by the moveTo() method.

_root.createEmptyMovieClip( "triangle", 1 );
with ( _root.triangle )
{
lineStyle( 5, 0xff00ff, 100 );
moveTo( 200, 200 );
lineTo( 300,300 ); 
lineTo( 100, 300 );
lineTo( 200, 200 );
}
