But thx, i never actually thought of that :) Hey Tiemen,

The quick & dirty way to fix this is indeed put the child inside an untransformed Sprite or MovieClip instance, in which case the child is rendered without transformation coordinates. The target however, is only the first property assignable to the draw() call. The second and most interesting is the matrix to use for transformations. Any object that has been moved, scaled or rotated has a non-default transformation matrix. Using this as a source will allow you to capture the target including all transformations.
