create patterned line effect in flash

Hi

I'd like to create a patterned line effect in flash. Till now, I've been creating the graphics in .psd using 4x4 pixel blocks, filled with a horiz. or diag. pattern, then filled a selection with that pattern - then saved the graphic for whatever size i need, and imported to flash.

is there a way to add patterned effects in flash, so that i can use scalable vectors instead of annoying jpegs?

thx

hi Billy

not quite what i was looking for
instead, i've continued to create bgs in .psd, then saved them as gifs and dropped them in as the bg - works well enough
doubt there'll be many more responses to this thread, so points are your bud!
thx
aidan
ta for the points.
Have you looked at the colour swatch panel in flash - you can import swatches and use them for fills - and it may be better that way for smaller file size.

good idea - i'll check that out
might be a good way of achieving the same effect, using the 4px x 4px concept
cheers:)
cool, glad to help.
