# MovieClip.moveTo()

#### Availability

Flash Player 6.

#### Usage

`my_mc``.moveTo (``x``,` `y``)`

#### Parameters

`x` An integer indicating the horizontal position relative to the registration point of the parent movie clip.

`y` An integer indicating the vertical position relative to the registration point of the parent movie clip.

#### Returns

Nothing.

#### Description

Method; moves the current drawing position to (`x`, `y`). If any of the parameters are missing, this method fails and the current drawing position is not changed.

#### Example

This example draws a triangle with 5-point, solid magenta lines and no fill. The first line creates an empty movie clip to draw with. Inside the `with` statement, a line type is defined; then the starting drawing position is indicated by the `moveTo` method.

    _root.createEmptyMovieClip( "triangle", 1 );
    with ( _root.triangle )
    {
    lineStyle( 5, 0xff00ff, 100 );
    moveTo( 200, 200 );
    lineTo( 300,300 );
    lineTo( 100, 300 );
    lineTo( 200, 200 );
    }
