Simple, in event editor under a new condition go to the drawline object and select the action DRAWLINE. Then pick the start of the line, click ok, then pick the end of the line. Simple! Except the drawline object isn't 100% complete thus not allowing you to draw more than one line with it. So you will either need one object for every line or you can use the overlay object 1.5 (which allows you to draw all kinds of cool shapes and things).

Drawline is buggy as hell, because its a hlaf finished object. Really dodgey i reccomend you don't use it. Use the overlay object instead, it's just as powerfull.

The "NEXTLINE" function in the drawline object doesn't let you start your line at a new point. It makes it so you can have bends in your lines. Which allows you to draw shapes and things.
Probably nothing. Drawline is an unfinished object, meaning half the stuff doesn't work and the other half isn't where it should be, and the third half works.
hey wait.. there is no third half... if that was your point shen, i'll have to disagree, its quite good for alot of stuff, if you can stand the random bugs..

Istvan: Try setting your browser's text size to double to read it......or copy the text into wordpad and double its size...or use netscape composer and double its text size.

If you want to draw lines, use the Overlay object. There are bugs with Drawline and until someone/I make a working, bug-free extension you're better off using Overlay. (And make sure you get version 1.5 - 2.0 is an older version. Gah, silly Cragmyre version systems X( )
