About color

Adobe® Flash® CS3 Professional lets you apply, create, and modify colors. Using the default palette or a palette you create, you can choose colors to apply to the stroke or fill of an object you are about to create, or an object already on the Stage.

When applying a stroke color to a shape, you can do any of the following:

• Apply a solid color, gradient, or bitmap to a shape’s fill. To apply a bitmap fill to a shape, you must import a bitmap into the current file. Select any solid color, gradient, and the style and weight of the stroke.

• Create an outlined shape with no fill by using No Color as a fill.

• Create a filled shape with no outline by using No Color as an outline.

• Apply a solid color fill to text.

With the Color panel, you can create and edit solid colors and gradient fills in RGB and HSB modes.

To access the system color picker, Alt-double-click (Windows) or Option-double-click (Macintosh) the Stroke Color or Fill Color control in the Tools panel, the shape Property inspector, or the Color panel.
