Hi! How can draw in one zone of my project, by example:
http://jglif.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/cara.gif
Draw only skin (no eyes, no mouth ..) with an actor named "pencil 1"
Drag the pencil and can draw the face. How can I do?

Thanks in advance!!!

    That was impressive, @Socks. Photo-realistic hands and everything.

    The demo I made (attached) is the only way I know to accomplish that. Tap and drag to color in the image.

    Although I did not find anything where say "dot can not leave the girl" Where I can find it in the project? How does it work?

    It's a trick of sorts and therefore potentially not all that useful. But here's how it works: there is an overlay image that is a gray rectangle with her silhouette cut out and then a separate image of just "the girl." On the girl actor, it spawns a dot where the mouse is (with touch is pressed) as long as the touch is inside of the actor. So what's really happening is that below the gray rectangle actor are a bunch of stray marks that you can't see because it's covering things up. Don't believe me? ;) Try deleting the cover actor from the scene.

    And this is slightly better only because I decided to spawn the dot behind the girl actor and make her somewhat transparent. That way the black lines stay black and aren't covered up by the drawing of the dots.

    Well, sure, they are layered which covers up the stray marks.

    That works surprisingly well !

    I shuffled the layers around so you could use solid colours which I think works well too (file attached).

    I wonder if there's a way to have more discrete 'areas' ?

    I threw a quick colour selection palette onto your project (file attached).

    Click on the squares to select that colour.

    Thanks, @Socks. I actually made a demo a while ago (http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/41084; my video is no longer hosted) that includes dot size, color choice, and a rewind feature that let you undo and then watch what you had drawn.

    And even though I think your solid color layers look better, I had transparency on my original demo because it allowed for blending of colors. :)

    Yeah, I think I remember you posting that, good stuff, especially the rewind feature.
