Flash :: Professional - Deco Brush In CS5?
May 8, 2010
When I try to use the deco brush in CS5 some of the properties are not there to tweak. For instance when I try to flower brush it creates flowers but the advanced options are not changable. The categories such as Flower color, Flower size, Leaf color Leaf size and Fruit color are there but there are no options to change any of these. The same issue happens with the lightning brush, the Tree brush, the smoke brush, the decorated brush, the fire brush and just about any brush except for the grid brush which has options to use a symbol. Is there something I am doing wrong? Is there a way to get the settings to be invoked? Is it just broken?

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 am creating a lightning effect with the deco tool. I have no problem using it in the timeline and applying a mask (with a brush) to give the effect of the lightning travelling through the air. However when I create a new layer for another bolt of lightning and a new mask to give the appearance of it travelling I cannot make the 2nd mask active as it is greyed out?

for one reason or another, my brush tool only allows me to select color and smoothing. Stroke, style, scale, and everything else is grayed out and will not let me change it.

When using a simple line shape graphic (that was created in Flash) to supply Deco Tool > Symmetry Brush > Rotate Around, the line looses it's thickness along the rotation. See attached image. I'm following chapter 2 in Flash CS4 Classroom In A Book, and the visuals from the book do not match what is happening on my computer.

I must have hit a button or something. Every brush stroke I paint is automatically converted into a symbol. I don't want this. How do I turn it off?

I have an issue with my Cintiq not drawing smoothly in Flash. I need to sketch incredibly fast and loose. Flash used to work just fine but now it suddenly began drawing really crummy. I posted some examples of flash as well as Photoshop, Sketchbook Pro, and ToonBoom Animate Pro which is another vector graphics tool. I thought the vector graphics may be the issue but that app seems to handle the drawing excellently (now if only it did the other things Flash can do). Here's some examples of how they're looking. It may be hard to tell in these already loose sketches but the performance drop is really a big difference in responsiveness between Flash vs the other apps here:[code]Does anyone know why my cintiq is causing flash to draw so poorly? Occasionally photoshop will also do the same 'crumbly edges' thing?

So I was making one of my first flash animations in Flash Pro CS5.5 and... when I select the brush tool the "Stroke" is greyed out, it's there, but I can't move it. The strange thing is I can change the fill colour and change the stroke size on the pencil, but why can't I change the stroke on the brush?

bit of a noob at flash, so I've been having a bit of a difficulty in using the pencil/brush tool in drawing an animation. I set a keyframe, and paint a yellow stroke. Then i continue onto the next key. I then go back to the first keyframe, and want to paint a black stroke over part of the yellow stroke i made earlier.
after selecting this first frame (making the layer active), I go to change the stroke color of the brush to black but find that it now changes my yellow stroke (which I want to keep yellow) to black. I see that in selecting the frame, by default whatever strokes were made on this frame are also selected (which I don't want). So I'd like to know how do I avoid altering my previous stroke and still put a different colored stroke overlapping it on the same frame?
also is it possible to append a brush/pencil stroke to an old brush/pencil stroke?

I'm doing some masking with the brush tool. Each keyframe I'm drawing a bit more of the mask. My problem is if I go back to the first keyframe and paint something it doesn't appear on the other keyframes.I thought I found the solution with Edit Multiple Frames, but it doesn't seem to work with the brush tool.

When I use the Flash CS4 brush tool in "Paint Inside" mode it erases part of the strokes around shapes. For rectangles it erases the stroke on the top and left hand side where the brush head crosses it, though it never seems to affect the other sides. The effect is less consistant with ovals, but it breaks the strokes at some points. I am using Flash CS4 version 10.0.2 on Windows XP, and I have checked for program updates through the Help menu. Here are two examples:

I have found in my experience with Flash CS4 and using a Wacom tablet or Cintiq that the brush sensitivity is unstable. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. As long as I open Flash and do not change the brush size, then the sensitivity stays just fine. If I change the brush size then sensitivity disappears and all I can draw is solid lines of a single width.
I contacted Wacom and was on the phone for two hours. After trying every possible fix, we decided it was a Flash error, since Photoshop works. Other machines were tested, other tablets were swapped in and out, new pens were tried, they all had the same problem.
I contacted Adobe and this was their response: "As I understand that you want to use Flash on Wacom and brushes lack pensensitivity . I understand this issue & i found that brushes lackpen sensitivity because it is not compatible with wacom tablet."
This is news to me that Adobe decided to not support Wacom tablets with Flash. Is this for real? I responded saying that the response sounded wrong.

This question is finally answered. I reposted this since the last thread contained unreltaed discussions, I figured this way it would be easier to see the issue and get right to the resolve without scrolling through the meat of the other thread. I have been going through this issue with Adobe and Wacom for months trying to figure it out,

I have Flash CS4. I like the way the Vine Pattern can be animated with the Art Deco Tool, but I don't like the vines.The Grid Pattern, however, is good. But... there's no Animate check box as there is with the Vine Pattern.

I need to make a circle with a brush tool so that it looks like a child draws it. If I make a dot with the brush tool on the first frame and a circle on the 15th frame and then create shape tween between those frames it looks stupid, like the circle grows itself. Is there any possibility of making such a thing except for drawing it per frame?

How could I assign a keyboard shortcut to the "edit multiple frames" button, and setting onion skin options?I don't see these options anywhere in Flash's standard top menus.These are the buttons I'm talking about:Also, how about a keyboard shortcut for setting brush sizes?The only way I can figure out how to set this is from the tools panel dropdown.

I am making a draw toy, and it is mostly all worked out. I am just adding finishing touches... like a brush that takes the place of the mouse. My problem is that when drawing as the screen starts to get filled up the brush will be under the drawing pen lines.
Is there a way to make that one mc named "brush" always be on top of everything else. If i cant figure this out, i will just not do the whole hide mouse and attach clip, because naturally the mouse will go on top so i could just keep it plain

a drawing application in Flash that that you can paint on using a custom "brush", and not use the default lines that are made by lineTo. The idea I had was to create a brush movie clip, and as the mouse moves duplicate it and place it at the mouse location. However, the problem arises that I often get large gaps in between movie clips if I move the mouse fast enough (which is more like normal speed for me).

I'd like to load an external PNG and use it as a brush for a line I am drawing using graphics.lineTo(). I'm trying to load the PNG, draw it into a new BitmapData-object and apply this BitmapData-Object to the line via lineBitmapStyle. Like this:
Code:
var hello:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
var pinselFile:URLRequest = new URLRequest('pinsel20x20.png');
[Code]...
But somehow (as always) it just won't work. The PNG is loaded fine, I can use it anywhere else btw.

1. How can I change the size of the brush tool? It's all greyed out on every project I start, stuck at the very smallest size (0.10). I'm trying to trace over a photo at the moment, and it's taking FOREVER with the tiny little brush. It only un-greys itself after I draw a line, but I can only change the size of the line I've just drawn. As soon as I go to draw a new line, it goes straight back to size 0.10.I'd use the pencil tool, because I can change that, but...
2. How do you make the eyedropper tool put your chosen colour into the pencil colour box as opposed to the brush box? Every time I use it, it forces me to use the brush. Which, because of the above problem, is ridiculously inconvenient to draw with in just about every situation.

I have a drawing api with the simple code of a flash:
Code:
stop();
this.createEmptyMovieClip("dibujo", 1);
dibujo.lineStyle(4, 0x000FFF, 100);
attachMovie("lapiz", "lapiz", 11);
[Code] .....
But I need a more complex lineStyle, I mean, a brush that look like a paint brush, like water color.
