Explanation:
etting up the stage
Besides choosing the right settings for publication (Flash version) with which we shall not deal here, you should select the right size for your your stage, i.e. the size of your future flash document. You can do this either when you create a new file or later.
2.1 Defining document size
Creating a new document
Flash lets you create a new document from various templates: File->New. Then choose from General or Templates.
These templates may predefine several things:
Size of the stage
Version of Flash (based on Actionscript 1,2 or 3)
Sometimes other things, e.g. the Photoslideshow contains photos and tools to make slideshow.
In any case, to learn Flash's drawing feature, you don't have to worry much about what template to choose from. Just make sure that you have enough space to draw. If an initial size turns out to be too small or too big, you simply can modify the document's size (see next).
Modification of a document
With Modify->Document (or by clicking on an empty spot in the stage and then changing the properties) you can:
Redefine the size of the stage.
Change the background color
Give it a title and a short description
2.2 What size for a Flash document ?
Size of your Flash document depends on its purpose. Since Flash documents (unlike well made HTML pages) have a fixed size, you must find a good compromise between readability (user should be able to read and distinguish all elements) and horizontal/vertical space you take up).
Larger flash documents
The default documents takes up 550x400px. This makes the document viewable without scrolling on a computer with a bad screen resolution of 800x600px. Do not forget that a screen also contains a tools bar (in most Operating systems) and that Flash is usually viewed within a web browser that also contains menu bars, a bottom bar and some pixels to the left and right.
Anyhow, most people today have bigger screen resolutions so you certainly can go bigger than 550x400.
Banners and other embedded items
Just don't make menu bars too large ....
3 Configuration of the drawing environment
Firstly you should know that there are two kinds of drawing tools:
Tools in the main tools panel (that appears by default to the left of the desktop)
Tools available through various panels
Here is screen-dump that I made while drawing a red "ray" with the Pencil tool (the mouse pointer is missing from the drawing).
You can see that the properties panel (lower left) will display properties of the object being drawn. E.g. when you use the pencil, it will display color of the stroke, size of the stroke, type of the line, fill color, etc.
The same is true for the color panel that we display in the upper right.
