Hi,
A Flash newbie here w/ a pretty basic question. I have a rounded rectangle bordering some content. I'd like Flash to slowly draw the rectangle starting at the top middle, drawing left & right sides at the same time, and meeting again at the bottom middle to finish the shape. What's the best way to do this? i thought of using 2 masks but it seems like it'd be easier than that.

thanks!
Roger
