Using the pen in Firefox MX.

[Filiberto]

Macromedia Fireworks MX is a very powerful tool allowing you to implement any kind of 2D images. I am looking for some tips on how to change the background color, and how to write a text with a color, size, etc. I have used this before but not enough sure about the features and output.

The pen is a very effective firework but still need to know to use it. Indeed aproche has the pen can be frightening and you can not get to use it properly. So we will see what it allows us to do. Create a new document and choose the pen. Method, click once somewhere on and click again to another place. You will get a right.

One might ask you. What is the use of a pen tool and it provides more than the line. Well it's very simple, select the line and then with the pen always click a location the right, and now support the mouse to move the cursor up or down as you want. You can turn left or right. In re-selecting your route and taking the pen you can keep your figure drawing. But you can copy / paste your layout (or Edit > clone) and change direction with illustration. To rotate, you put out a rectangle and when you have this icon. Then click when you are finished rotating. By then moving the second image, one that rotates.

Take the pen and then connect the two ends of the two plots left to close the element. Select all and give it a color, and remove the border. To remove the color of the border should put a border transparent. Here just have to add a little gradient effect to make everything more beautiful. Here is a picture that is much nicer than that obtained previously. Another use of the pen: Write as if you are tracing a line with the line, but having selected the pen.
