Setting Drawing Model Options

You can draw shapes in Flash using two main drawing models:

Merge Drawing and Object Drawing Merge Drawing model

automat-ically merges shapes that you draw when you overlap them If you select a shape that has been merged with another, and move it, the shape below it is moved too For example, if you draw a square and overlay a circle on top of it, and then select the circle and move it,

the portion of the square that overlaid the circle is removed Object Drawing model allows you to draw shapes as separate objects that

do not automatically merge together when overlaid This lets you overlap shapes without altering their appearance should you choose

to move them apart, or rearrange their appearance Flash creates each shape as a separate object that you can individually manipulate

When you select a shape created using the Object Drawing model, Flash surrounds the shape with a rectangular bounding box You can use the Pointer tool to move the object by clicking the bounding box and dragging the shape anywhere you’d like to position it on the Stage You can now extend the Object Drawing mode by creating

primitive rectangles and ovals in Primitive mode, which allows you to

edit properties in the Property Inspector and specify the corner radius of rectangles and inner radius of ovals This makes it easy to create pie wedges, round off corners, and other shapes
