Flash Basics Drawing and editing drawing objects

In this lesson we will learn to draw and edit graphic objects of Flash graphics

Flash graphics are generally vector graphics, each object has its own attributes, such as lines have color, line style, thickness and other attributes, can be modified in the "Properties" panel;

Now we try to create simple graphics, the most basic object is of course the line object, start Flash, create a new document, first in the hand tool

Double-click, adjust the size of the work area; Click to select the Line tool in the Toolbox

, in the bottom of the property panel, in order from left to right, select the line color is red, select the thickness to 3, "solid line" unchanged;

Then move the mouse to the work area, when the mouse pointer becomes a cross, hold down the left button to drag to the end of the line, release the left button, you can create a straight line, hold down the SHIFT key, you can draw a straight line, try to draw two straight lines;

Then insert a blank keyframe in frame 2nd and draw a big red "M" with the line tool,

Click the Save command on the File menu to save the file to your own folder with a drawing object as the file name;

The method of drawing a rectangle tool is similar to drawing a line, and then inserting a blank keyframe, clicking the Rectangle tool

, select a green border color in the property panel (a color box with a pencil next to it) and a red fill color (with a paint bucket next to it), with a thickness of 2 and a solid line unchanged;

Draws a rectangle in the workspace;

Then set the border line style to a dashed line with a thickness of 5, draw a rectangle, and if the property panel is not displayed when the tool is selected, click in the workspace with the mouse to activate the tool properties.

Save the file with the Save command;

Using the same method, insert a blank keyframe in the next frame, draw a yellow-side ellipse and a positive circle in the workspace with the Ellipse tool (hold down the SHIFT key to draw the positive circle), and save the file with the Save command;

How do you draw a normal curve? Using the Pencil tool, in the options panel below

Click the button in the Select a pencil mode you can paint at will,

Then insert a blank keyframe, with the Pencil tool in the options below the three modes ("straighten", "smooth", "ink"), respectively, in the workspace using pencil tool to write green, thickness 1, solid line of the "beautiful campus", compared to their differences,

Save the file with the Save command, press CTRL + ENTER to test the animation effect (right-click on the animation below and click "Play" to remove the tick to stop the animation);

This section describes the lines, curves, rectangles, ellipses, four basic vector objects, and the actions of the properties panel, kept in mind every step of the way, and if you have successfully completed the exercise, please continue with the next lesson
