Apply Stroke

khamstra · 07-28-2005, 04:31 PM

I have shapes that are on the stage.... each shape is in a group (by itself). They currently do not have a stroke applied. I would like to apply a stroke to all selected items or items in a specified frame and layer. Any ideas???

Thanks

well the use of the selection object would be a good start. i havn't worked with strokes as yet so can't give any info on that

Well... I've managed to be able to select all the object and change there color (not what I was trying to do) but adding the stroke is the problem.

setStroke is used to change the existing stroke of an element, it is not used to add a stroke.

I need to figure out if there is a way to add the stroke.

Thanks

try this ... select all the objects on the stage... i.e. all lines drawn on the stage and apply this jsfl ....

ActionScript Code:

var myStroke = fl.getDocumentDOM().getCustomStroke(); 
myStroke.style = "stipple"; 
myStroke.dotSpace= 3; 
myStroke.variation = "random sizes"; 
myStroke.density = "sparse"; 
myStroke.color = '#000000';
fl.getDocumentDOM().setCustomStroke( myStroke );

..............

The problem is none of the objects have a stroke... I'm trying to add one.
