How do I scale strokes in Flash CC?

I know that in the "Properties" window there is a "Scale" drop-down, but it doesn't work. When I scale in free transform, the stroke doesn't scale unless its in a movieclip.

Yes, if you are using any transform, the scale of the contained parts of an object will not change. If you want the object to appear to be enlarging, then you will need to make it a symbol. When you transform a symbol, you are changing the appearance of the object on the stage. You are not transforming the original object. That remains the same in the Library.
If you want to transform an object drawn on the stage and have some or all of the parts also get larger, you can select each one and then use the stroke size option in the Properties window.
This is no different in Flash CC than it was in any other version of Flash.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop CS5 automatically scale strokes and effects?

    I am looking everywhere for why Photoshop CS5 doesn't automatically scale strokes and effects. I could've sworn there was a preference in CS4 but there's nothing resembling this in CS5. Driving me crazy!
    Whenever I do a Free Transform, the effects are completely out of whack and force me to waste time resetting them individually, layer by layer. I used to be able to grab any object or group of objects, do a transformation and Photoshop automatically recalculated. If anyone has a tip on how to avoid the annoyance of having to go layer by layer and forcibly adjusting that would be great.

    Layer style effect setting are in absolute pixel size values so if you change the scale of a layer the style size remains the same. You can edit the layers style effects after tou do a transform on the layer and change the absolute setting. If the layer has been rastersized or flattened you can not. I have request that Adobe add support for relative settings like inches, cm, mm etc which is relative to the documents dpi resolution. This would be very helpful for recording actions. 
    However photoshop can scale existing layer style for you when you use Image Size there is a check box.  If you need to scale a single layer and have its style scaled you need to do it in a round about way. Convert the layer to a smart object. Then instead of using transform double click on the layser smart object icon in the layers palette.  Photoshop will open that layer embedded smart object in Photoshop for you to work on it.. Use Image Size to resize the layer up or down in size and check resample constrain and the scale style check box.  Then use menu File>Save.  Photoshop will then update the embedded smart object in the smart object layer and you can close the document Photoshop opened for you to work on the smart object.

  • How to stop changing stroke weights when changing the size of an object in CS5 on Windows 7?

    I'm not sure what I did to make this happen or how to change it back, but for some reason when I change the size of an object/line it changes the stroke weight as well. (For example, if I drew an ellipse with stroke weight 2 pt, and then increased the size the stroke weight would be 2.856 pt or some such number instead of 2 pt.) Does anyone know how to change this back?
    Thanks!

    Take a look at the Scale Strokes and effects preference either in the general programme preferences or in the flyout menu of the Transform palette.

  • CC 2014 Scale Stroke Issue

    I've noticed that the scale stroke feature works fine, except on a compound path.
    A standard stroked box, when doubled in size, doubles the stroke...
    If you make that same shape a compound path, when doubled in size, quadruples the stroke.
    This does not happen when enlarging the piece with the bounding box, but it does when using the transform panel.
    Any ideas as to how to avoid this from happening?

  • How do I make my banner flash from one photograph to another?

    Good day.
    I am using Dreamweaver CS5.
    My banner of 968px X 280px is a JPG image (photograph) with a logo.
    I would like to learn how to make the banner photograph flash from one photograph to another.
    Can anyone help me with how to do this or guide me to where I can find a tutorial on this?
    Can this be done in Dreamweaver with code, or do I have to do this in another application first?
    I have Flash, Fireworks and Photoshop.
    I will appreciate help.

    Yes, that is what I am looking for, if I can keep the same dimensions of my banner.
    Will jQuery allow me to specify my own dimensions?
    It's not jquery that determines the dimensions of your container for your images, you do. The dimensions can be any size. jquery is just a script which alternates the images within the container:
    Go to the link below and look at the source code.
    http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/basic.html
    These are the two jquery scripts you will need to download:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cloud.github.com/downloads/malsup/cycle/jquery.cycle.all.latest.js"></script>
    plus you'll need to include this small snippet in the 'head' section of the page. Change .slideshow to the class name of your container.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('.slideshow').cycle({
    fx: 'fade' // choose your transition type, ex: fade, scrollUp, shuffle, etc...
    </script>

    How to use check box in flash 8?

    If you want it to happen when someone clicks the checkbox, then you need to add a listener for that event.
    var cbListener:Object = new Object();
    cbListener.click = function (evt:Object) {
        if (cb.selected) {
              gotoAndStop(2);
    cb.addEventListener("click", cbListener);
    (Note: "cb" and "cbListener" are names that were made up for this example.  They could be anything you want to name them)

    What are all the possible ways we can do it.

    Searching the forum (or google) would be my first choice, as this question pops up every now and then.
    Next without knowledge of your environment (jdev version and technology stack) it's hard to give a profound answer.
    All I can say is that it's possible.

  • How can I tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and upto date version?

    How can I tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and upto date version?
    Hi Guys and girls, hopefully an easy question for you.
    I installed Adobe flash and lightsource last night, cos I needed it to run Weebly website maker.
    Anyone know if Weebly runs correctly on 10.9.1??
    I have a new comp, so no previous version of flash on here, I am running OSX 10.9.1
    I just want to know How I can tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and is the upto date version?
    Where do I go in the comp to find out,
    If I type in Adobe flash into search it only brings up flash manager, when I click this it is an uninstaller program.
    Lightsource shows in finder apps.
    If I type in flash player it shows up in plugins with a version number see screen shot.
    Where would I go to check for updates for things like flash on my comp?
    Thanks Team,

    1. Safari > Preferences > Security > Internet Plug-ins

    2. Go to this Adobe site to check. You will see the animation above the tree.

  • Need to learn how to create a slideshow in Flash

    Hello All,
    I'm new to Flash and I need to learn how to do a slideshow with exactly the same features as can be found in this link:
    http://www.esppromo.com/index.asp
    Just like at the link above, it needs to play through the slides automatically once the page is loaded, each slide needs to link to a specific URL, and I need controls similar to the boxes at the bottom so the viewer can click on any specific slide they wish to view (I'd like to have numbers in the boxes though). The transitions don't have to slide across like this. If a fade is easier, that would be fine.
    Since I've looked online, but can't find any tutorials for doing this in Flash Professional, I think I'll pick up a book on Flash. There are some online tutorials that are close but nothing that is exactly what I'm looking for.
    I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a particular book that covers creating this type of slide show with the links and controls exactly as I need it to be. I see these types of slide shows on a lot of sites now, so I'm hoping that maybe someone else on this forum has had to learn how to do this and can recommend a book they used?
    I was looking at Adobe Flash Professional CS5 Classroom in a Book and it looked like it may be what I'm after, but I am rather cautious, as I don't want to end up with instructions that are close to what I am looking for, but not quite right.
    Actually, I thought I'd be able to do this fairly easily with Flash Catalyst, so I updated to Adobe CS5 Design Premium. I found that Flash Catalyst can be used to create a slide show like this, but unfortunately it won't play automatically when the page loads and the viewer has to manually click through the slides, which is not what I need. I could be wrong, but from what I've read, I need Flash Builder to add code so the slide show will play automatically if I create it in Flash Catalyst. Since it's not an option for me to buy more software at this time, I've decided to learn how to do this in Flash Professional.
    I really want to learn how to do this. I expect to go on and create more using Flash, but for now I just REALLY need to figure this slide show out.
    If anyone can help out, I'd really appreciate it!
    Thanks,
    William

    Edit:
    i'm sorry. it is a huge work to type this and will be confusing as hell. i'm already up to 1 full word page of explanation. Though i am able to do it, explaning it in full lengh is ... well.. very hard. Way harder than it is to make your flash itself.
    I can however point you to some element you should read about how to make them:
    - How to use timeline in flash cs4
    - how to create a button in flash cs4
    - How to make "CLASSIC TWEEN" in flash cs4
    - How to use ActionScript 2 ( AS2) basic command like : GetUrl, Gotoandplay, Stop and how to put those script in the right location. ( AS2 allow you to put script directly on the button itself. however it is best to put it in the Action Layer that you will have to build in the timeline.
    - How to import thing in library.
    keep in mind that what you want to make is mostly a Logic probleme...
    - Image 1 click = GetURL X,
    - After Y time, Switch image 1 to image 2 with animation. Do the same for the button.
    - If you click on button 1 while being on image 3, you have to set all the reverse animation in the timeline, and use a lot of Gotoandplay.
    Hope this help you a little.
    I'm sorry. i really wanted to help you do it, but it is just a monstruous job to write all this.
