if you don't want the bitmap on-stage, use:
import flash.geom.Point;
import flash.display.BitmapData
var bmp:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("bmpID");
var img:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("img",0);
//img.attachBitmap(bmp,0);
var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc",1);
var ptA:Array = [];
img.onMouseDown = function(){
this.onMouseUp = function(){
//delete this.onMouseDown
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
var pt:Point = new Point(_xmouse,_ymouse);
ptA.push(pt);
this.moveTo(pt.x,pt.y);
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
var pt:Point = new Point(_xmouse,_ymouse);
ptA.push(pt)
with(this){
lineStyle(1,0x000000);
lineTo(pt.x,pt.y);
}
}
}
this.onMouseUp = function(){
mc.beginBitmapFill(bmp);
mc.moveTo(ptA[0].x,ptA[0].y);
for(var i:Number=1;i<ptA.length;i++){
mc.lineTo(ptA[i].x,ptA[i].y);
}
mc.endFill();
ptA.length = 0;
}
