Hi, I'm doing a flash movie with a water pipe being looped up and down. I want the pipe to look empty when the movie starts and then fill up with water from one end to the other and then leave the pipe. I know the easiest way is to use a mask, but since the pipe is looped up and down, how can I do this using a mask? Please help!

Use a motion guide for the mask
