Elements copied to the Clipboard are antialiased, so they look as good in other applications as they do in Flash. This is particularly useful for frames that include a bitmap image, gradients, transparency, or a mask layer.
Graphics pasted from other movies or programs are placed in the current frame of the current layer. How a graphic element is pasted into a Flash scene depends on the type of element it is, its source, and the preferences you have set as follows:
|
Text from a text editor becomes a single text object. |
|
Vector-based graphics from any drawing program become a group that can be ungrouped and edited like any other Flash element. |
|
Bitmaps become a single grouped object just like imported bitmaps. Choose Modify > Trace Bitmap to convert a bitmap to a vector graphic. |
Note: Before pasting graphics from FreeHand 8 into Flash, set your FreeHand export preferences to convert colors to CMYK and RGB for Clipboard formats.
