Anyone have an idea how I would make a radial wiping mask (like a clock arm reveal) in Flash without hand painting the mask frame by frame?

move the anchor point to a corner of your maks and rotate it

I can do that. I need reveal its trail as a mask. Maybe I'm not explaining this well enough.

oh, sorry, you mean like the opposite of what i was thinking, like those transitions in those old tv shows
you can still do the rotating thing, but every few frames, draw a new mask that catches up to the rotating mask

I was hoping someone new a faster/easier way, like using shape morphing or something like that. I guess i'll have to hand draw it.

just use two half-circles. when the first one finishes it's rotation, start the second.

Sounds like it might work, anyone know how to invert a mask in Flash?
