Rotate Flash-project? 2013-01-25 15:05:51 Reply

Hey! Sometimes it would be helpful to rotate my frame 90° while I'm drawing. The thing is, I'm more comfortable drawing things vertically than horizontally. By rotating the image I could do steadier lines vertically that would turn out horizontally in the finished frame/project.

Hopefully you understood the question. Is there a solution for this?

Thank you!

I think the idea is that you just physically rotate the tablet like it was a piece of paper.

You can also use the transform tool, 'Q' is the hotkey in Flash CS3, and rotate it by clicking near the corners of your selection. Hold shift while rotating to move in 45 degree increments.

Thank you, the transform-tool + shift was pretty much what I was looking for! :D
