Is there an easier way to make outlines draw themselves without having to hand animate a mask layer? An example of what I mean can be found when the four navigation buttons on http://www.geimaginationatwork.com/indexFlash.html are first drawn.

in flash MX have been added the drawing API feature that allow you to dinamically draw a line or more...

but just if you can describe that line with mathematical equations... drawing the wireframe of an engine of a telephone (like in that wonderful site) still require the hand animated mask layer... because those figures are too complex...
