Ok ! The following is a method to make text look like made of Glass.

Open a new movie in Flash, put some text that you want to use. Use the break apart method to break apart into shape. Then use the [COLOR=Blue]modify… [/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]shape… soften fill edges… [/COLOR]  
choose the … [COLOR=Blue]inset[/COLOR] … options for the edges…  
for the pixels… put [COLOR=Blue]5px[/COLOR] in both [COLOR=Blue]distance and steps[/COLOR]… or as you like.

[COLOR=Red]without deselecting anything[/COLOR]… [COLOR=Red]repeat[/COLOR] the same procedures… you are done.

deselect everything and find the changes…

enjoy… I hope you understood something… 🙂

Ok, could someone make a tutorial ?..

cheers!
