Flash Tools: Distort Tool

Video Transcript

"Part Two of the Transform tool. One other thing that I did not mention in the last video, is that if you hold down your Apple key on a Mac, Control key on the PC is believe it is, then instead of getting these, you know, scale the Scale tool, you get the Distort tool. Which means if you're familiar with PhotoShop the Transform tool that gives you the Distort tool. It's the same kind of concept. So you can see right there I've basically skewed that and it'll snap to that axis and if I come a little bit off it'll give me some play with that. But the Skew tool allows you to, you know, shift the perspective of something. And make all sorts of different, different shapes with it. Now we'll get to this later but in these transform options you can do it numerically. But the Transform tool basically it gives you those options to be able to manipulate the shapes and even other objects as we'll see later."
