flash8.0 drawing exercise: Drawing "candle light" components

(1) Perform the Insert | new Symbol command, or press the shortcut key Ctrl+f8 to eject the Create New Symbol dialog box, enter the symbol name "candle light" in the Name text box, and select "behavior" as "graphic."

(2) Click "OK" button to enter the "Candle" component edit scene. Open the Color mixer panel, with the fill style set to radial. Move the mouse closer to the gradient bar, and when a plus sign appears in the lower-right corner of the mouse pointer, click the mouse to add a color label to the gradient bar. Set the left color mark to yellow and move slightly to the right; the middle color is red; the right color is white, and to make the flame blurry and unreal, adjust the alpha value of the white color on the right to zero, as shown in Figure 2-117.
