Pressure sensitive pen tool for flash

Hi! !
Well i'm new to this forum. What I need is a
<b>pressure sensitive pen tool plug-in for flash</b>,
which will be very helpful for me in my animations.
pls reply

No such plugin. All you need is a pressure sensitive tablet.
Then in Flash, select the Brush tool. Then click on the
little tapering line at the bottom of the Tools pallette to turn on
pressure sensitivity.

Pen Tool in Flash

Whenever I select the pen tool in Flash, in the properties
panel it only gives me an option for stroke color, not fill, so I
can only make stroked objects. I want to make a colored object
without a stroke. How do I do this? (running cs3).

The Pen tool is only for making strokes - therefore the fill
color swatch is
simply not an option - if you want to make shapes then use
any of the shape
tools or the brush tool. You can always draw with the pen
tool and then
connect the paths and use the bucket tool to fill them.

Are there any performance benchmark tools for Flash?

I am looking to benchmark Flash on various computers that I use. I was surprised that the performance of Adobe Flash on my Intel i5 computer running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit OS and IE 10 was MUCH WORSE than running on a Windows 7 Pro 32-bit on an Intel i3 computer running the same browser.
I have tried running both 32-bit IE and 64-bit IE and get the same general bad performance on the 64-bit Windows OS. I would like to find a tool to benchmark these various computers so that I can establish baseline performance while I explore finding a fix Adobe Flash on a 64-bit OS.
Can someone suggest some tools for Flash performance benchmarking? Thank you.

The best advise we can really give you is that both companies offer free trials and you should download them both and see which works best for you. I own Parallels Desktop v6, and VMWare Fusion v3. For me, VMWare s better for some things, but Parallels is better for most. Depending on what you do and how you use your applications your milage may vary.
One other note to keep in mind. Since Apple is looking to release a new OS version in the very near future, you might want to hold-off a bit on our vitualization choice just yet. I would exect that both companies will be working on a new release for support/compatibilty of the new MacOS, so you might want to wait to see if there are any other changes that make you want to lean towards one or the other...

Using the Pen Tool in Flash

I'm in the process of teaching myself the components of the CS4 Design Premium package using the Adobe Classroom in a Book series. I'm currently going through the Flash CIAB and i've started using the pen tool. The task involves creating a wave like design across the stage. Whilst this in itself is simple, the final instruction is to click on the first anchor point to close the shape. In the illustration, the closed shape seems to automatically extend around the stage, however when I click on the first anchor point, the line automatically connects between the two points in a straight line.
Am I doing something wrong? The next step is to fill this area, but with the straight line effect that I am getting, this becomes impossible. I should point out that the instruction states that the pen tool line should extend off the stage. I have done this, but even then on clicking on the first anchor point the shape is closed incorrectly.
If you have any suggestions as to why this may be, I would be greatly appreciative.
Chris

Thanks Ned,
I think I worked out the problem; I think that part of the instruction was missing. When I looked at the picture again, I noticed that there were anchor points around the stage, so I guess that was what I missed. I was simply creating the wavy line across the stage, and then clicking on the first anchor point to close the shape. I resolved the problem by creating three anchor points around the stage and then closing the image by clicking on the first anchor.
Thanks again for your help Ned.

Mysterious issues with the pen tool in flash (CS3 & CS4)

i have searched tirelessly for the answer to this problem and still have no answer. when using the pen tool to create shapes, occasionanally when i click to add the next point the line segment jumps over to a previously added point. also, sometimes when i add a point, the point mysteriously starts moving on the screen all by itself. i have used illustrator for many years and it's pen tool is perfect in so many ways and it is counterproductive to have to jump to illustrator to do any pen tool work and then import it into flash
anybody have this issue or know why this might be happening?

Hello
I have the same issue. I think it is a bug.
Sometimes when I delete points with <delete> key on keyboard, flash also deletes randomly frames on locked layers with all of its contents.
You have to start tricking over these issues, if you do not want to be nervous. Like using a one key -shortcut substitute of Ctrl+Z
Sometimes it's happening, because there are not perfectly overlapping shapes on each other on one layer, .
Sometimes because there are a parenting issue, flash sometimes breaks, if you draw to deep under the "root" of the
project.
Or if you have a lot of vectrice on one layer. But I am just guessing too.

Simple question about pen tool in Flash vs Photoshop

Hi,
After years of fumbling with the pen tool, I devoted my holiday weekend to mastering the pen tool in Photoshop. Though not necessarily a grand master of the pen tool, I'm happy to report that I've turned a corner and have transformed my pen tool feelings from fear/anger/hate into love/happiness/accomplishment. At long last, it all makes sense.
I think.
Today, I zipped into Flash to experiment with a tracing assignment I'm giving to my students in an upcoming Flash class. As I started to trace the path with the pen tool, I realized that it was behaving differently than it does in Photoshop. My specific problem is this:
I place an anchor point and draw a line. Then I draw another line. Then I draw another line. Then, I decide to adjust one of the handles and try to draw another line. But it won't let me just go back to adding things to the path with the pen tool if any part of the process is disrupted.
This seems like pretty basic functionality! What am I doing wrong?
To make sure that I wasn't crazy, I went back to Photoshop and tried to do the same thing. It works just fine in Photoshop. At any time, I can hop away from the pen path and then back over to the pen tool. All I need to do to extend the path with the pen tool in Photoshop is to click on the last anchor point in the path. Surely, this must also be possible in Flash.
I would be grateful for any advice!

How to select a shape from pen tool for paint bucket

I was under the notion that I could make a shape with the pen tool and if I closed the the shape it would then be selected in a way that would allow me to color the interior with paint bucket.
However, when I splash the paintbucket inside my shape, it paints the whole layer, not just the part inside my shape.
Obviously I don't understand how it is supposed to work.
Apparently I've gone at this the wrong way.. I want to create a freeform shape, that once created will be a selected region in the same way a rectangle or elips would.
What is the best way to do that? I'm shooting for thought bubble sort of shape, something along the line of the outline of an egg, but with a tail at one end.

Added tips from Tip Merchant ($200 consulation fee)
- on mac - command/ numeric keypad Enter turns the path into a selection. Option delete then fills.
- an action can be setup to bring up Fill Path from the Path panel menu. Just pressing enter fills with FG color
These are ways to avoid he paths panel altogether. Best way may be to use the TINY fill path icon in that panel as was pointed out by John

FW CS4 crashes when using the pen tool for many points

Good morning,
Every time I try to create a mask with the pen tool that
requires a good
amount of points, FW crashes. I've had this happen with CS3
as well, but
with CS4 , it crashes with many less points than CS3 - has
any one
experienced this, and more to the point, any solutions?
Aloha,
Jerry

I'm optimistic too. I think it will start to sort itself out
when Intel's
new 24-Core 128-bit processors hit the market in conjunction

Tools for Flash Lite 3 development.

I'm new to flash development. So i'm looking for tools to start development for flash lite 3 (i'm not interested in 4th version).
There are a loot tools available:
* Flash Pro CS 5

* Flex SDK?
What is the best option to start?

Hi,
You can't handle them. Its the default behavior from FL.
You can use KuneriLite or SWF2Go+PyS60 or APIBridge for loading external resources and checking for errors.

Pen Tool in Flash 8

I'm very new to this, and am trying to draw a circle using
the pen tool. When clicking on the pen tool I get a "plus sign"
instead of a "pin" incon. It doesn't behave the way the text book
(HOT) tell me it should. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Any
help?

What way does this "HOT" book tell you and how does it
actually "behave"? We need to understand the
expectations of the book and what is or is not happening
based on those expectations.

Activating Pen Tool Endpoints in Flash

I'm trying to create an animated stick figure. Im used to adobe Illustrator, so i am confused by the Pen tool in flash. when i drag the direct selection tool over an anchor point to move it - it doesn't hilight the way it does in AI. I seem to have to actually find the point and click on it to activate it. This seems like an inferior way for the line tool to work. Am i missing something? Should it hilight / activate when I run the pointer over it - or is that jsut the way it is.
BTW, are there any good tutorials on animating a stick figure that anyone could point me to? maybe that will help me understand how the Pen tool works.
Many thanks in advance!
Karen

Flash works quite differently than AI. If you want to work with anchor points, you neet a Subselection Tool (white arrow).
At first, you need to select a path so the anchor points get visible. Notice the little icon in the lower right corner of the cursor when you hover the path. It should be black filled rect.
When you move cursor over an anchor point, the rect changes to empty one. After selecting an anchor point, you can hover its control points and then the whole cursor changes from white arrow to black filled arrow.
