ActionScript 3.0 :: See Outlines When Use The Shape Tool In CS5?
May 25, 2011
When I open action script 2 or 3 in CS5, and draw a rectangle or any shape, I can only see outlines? The problem IS NOT the outlines button that is in the layers palet as I have changed this many times and it has mad no difference and the problem IS NOT because I have selected no fill or colour for the shape. If you want to see a screenshot of my computer follow this link as I have exactly the same problem [URL]
BUT interestingly, when I have opened someone elses .fla work document, I can draw and fill shapes without a problem, which makes me wonder whether I am missing some basis setting when I start with my own new document ??

I draw a shape with the pen tool in Flash CS4. I made sure the shape was closed. But, I cannot fill the shape no matter what. Paint bucket tool does not work. Whatever I do, I get the red diagonal line on the fill color. I can fill a shape with the rectangle or oval tools but not the pen tool.

Is it possible to draw a strokeless shape with the pen tool (as in Illustrator)? It is quite tedious to have to go back and remove strokes from my shapes.... especially since I can't see how to do it without clicking on each segment and hitting "delete"!

Does anyone know of a good tool for visually making shapes and then receiving the corresponding actionscript? To put it in context, I need to make a complex shape (a styled heart) with actionscript, but rather than going through the laborious process of trial and error with curveTo's and the like, I wanted to first see if there was already a tool out there.

I want to have shape tween animation with bone tool on bitmap image. Because shape tween animation supports only Shape data type, I converted the bitmap to that type (Bitmap -> Trace Bitmap). Problem is that trace command splits bitmap image into multiple shape fragments, so I can't use shape tween anymore.I tried to combine and group shape fragments, but it doesn't fix it.

I found that .fla files do not save in Flash CS4 when the Deco tool or Spray Brush tool is selected. Is this a bug? Or is there a workaround to this issue.

I'm having a problem in one of my fla files. I'm not sure if I changed the view or what I did exactly, but now all I have is colored outlines around where images are supposed to be. All of the text has turned different colors as well.

I want to keep my text editable in Flash (Classic text) and convert to outlines on publishing to swf so I don't have to worry about font embedding. Is it possible to do this? ie FLA keeps editable text but swf gets published out with outline text.

all the layers are displayed as outlines.I can assure you that outline mode is NOT switced on "globally" or for each layer.I have tried toggling the icons on and off to see if that would reset it, but it did not.Every new document is doing this, even after relaunching the program and rebooting the OS, Preview and Published display correctly, it is only in the the working environment that things aren't right.None of the other workstations are doing this, just this one.I did an update, but the issue persisted.
The weirdest part about it is, when I gave him a file created on my laptop to see what would happen, everything was displayed normally,New layers added to this document also displayed normally. We have iMac workstatios running Snow Leopard if that makes a difference.This is Flash CS5 by the way.Other than doing a re-install,

I have created a movie with a text input component and it is being included in a main movie by using html <img> tags. When I view the movie on a webserver and enter text the keyboard reverts from uk english to us english(i think) and the @ symbol mysteriously changes location to above the number 2.I'm not sure what to do about this cause when I run the movie on its own it works fine. I thought about embedding font outlines as a last resort. But I can't figure out how to embed font outlines in a component.

I've been trying to figure out how to disable the mouse focus that you see when you tab through a swf file. I'm getting them pop up now and then and the client doesn't want them.I've been trying to work out how to disable focus for the entire movie but I've got nowhere. Is there an easy way to do this?

Is there a setting that will allow me to see layers in outlines even though the alpha of the movieclip is set to 0%? I swear I used to be able to see an outline of my clips even though the alpha is all the way down... now if my clip is alpha down there's no outline when i 'view as outlines' in the timeline. maybe i accidently changed a setting some where?

One thing that seems particularly easy to do in the Flash IDE but difficult to do with code is to outline an organic shape. In the IDE you can just use the inkbucket tool to draw a stroke around something. Using nothing but code it seems much trickier. One method I've seen is to add a glow filter to the shape in question and just mess with the strength. But what if i want to only show the outline?What I'd like to do is to collect all of the points that make up the edge of the shape and then just connect the dots. I've actually gotten so far as to collect all of the points with a quick and dirty edge detection script that I wrote. So now I have a Vector of all the points that makeup my shape. How do I connect them in the proper sequence so it actually looks like the original object?[code]

I was wondering if there was a way of drawing different shapes dyamically, and then somehow "join" them so that the resulting shape has only one outline, and not an outline for each shape.For examples making a random cloud with circles, and only have the outline on the cloud, and not each circle.

I have a project where I use several SWFs and have the fonts outlines stored into a seperate SWF. Within the .fla file's I have checked the Import for runtime sharing with the various font definitions.In the library the linkage part shows for every font the Import: classnamTo get a correct idea how things look within the IDE, I've checked several character ranges within the font properties so the preview renders correctly.In Flash CS5 everything was working correctly; no font outline was included within the SWF. The size report also shows this.When I create the SWF with Flash CS5.5 font outlines of the selected ranges still get embedded into the SWF. The file size of the SWF is much larger and the font outline information shows up in the size report.

When my site finishes loading, just before the animation begins, I see for a very short period of time (just a frame I guess) weird images, actually the outlines of some elements (screenshot 1) that are supposed to have alpha = 0 and visible = false, and a weird shape which I believe has something to do with a big gradient - also with alpha = 0 and visible = false (screenshot3) also the preloader is all messed up (screenshot2) .ve made a few changes and these weird images and outlines persist for a longer time.

using the shape tool you can draw basic shapesthen using the subselection tool you can re-shape them by relocating certain points
What i want to do is create a tween whereby one of the points is movedthe problem is you have to convert to a symbol first and after you have done that you cant change the shapes shape.so how do i go about using a motion tween to change the shape of a shape?
