Well, I've bugged, I've hunted, I've hacked, and I just can't seem to find the answer.

Is there anyway to easily add a stroke to an imported image in flash MX? I tried covnerting it, went through every option, drew manual boxes around it, drew lines, but it's just too much work. I can't find a nice stroke option like Photoshop has! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I've no idea what you mean by "Stroke" but you could right click -> edit in photoshop OR you could convert it to a vector image using the "trace bitmap" option.

    Hope this helps.

    Export the thing you want to stroke to photoshop, then do the stroke. THen delete the initial image. The stroke is remaining. Copy it and paste it in flash. Then do a trace bitmap on it....

    Yeah it's cheap but I never had to use any strokes in flash :/
