1. Select a closed object or objects on the Stage.

2. Select Window > Properties.

3. To select a color, click the Fill Color control and do one of the following:

Select a color swatch from the palette.

Type a color’s hexadecimal value in the box.

Select a stroke color, style, and weight using the Property inspector

To change the stroke color, style, and weight for a selected object, use the Stroke Color control in the Property inspector. For stroke style, choose
from styles that are preloaded with Flash Pro, or create a custom style. To select a solid color fill, use the Fill Color control in the Property
inspector.

1. Select an object or objects on the Stage (for symbols, first double-click to enter symbol-editing mode).

2. Select Window > Properties.

3. To select a stroke style, click the Style menu and select an option. To create a custom style, click Custom in the Property inspector, select

options in the Stroke Style dialog box, and click OK.

Selecting a stroke style other than Solid can increase file size.

4. To select a stroke weight, set the Stroke slider or enter a value in the text box.

5. To enable stroke hinting, select the Stroke Hinting check box. Stroke hinting adjusts line and curve anchors on full pixels, preventing blurry

vertical or horizontal lines.

6. To set the style for a path end, select a Cap option:

Is flush with the path’s end.

Adds a round cap that extends beyond the path end by half the stroke width.

Adds a square cap that extends beyond the path by half the stroke width.

7. (Optional) If you are drawing lines using the Pencil or Brush tools with the drawing mode set to Smooth, use the Smoothing slider to specify

the degree to which Flash Pro smooths the lines you draw.

By default, the Smoothing value is set to 50, but you can specify a value from 0 to 100. The greater the smoothing value, the smoother the
resulting line.

When the drawing mode is set to Straighten or Ink, the Smoothing slider is disabled.

8. To define how two path segments meet, select a Join option. To change the corners in an open or closed path, select a path and select

another join option.
