Dont understand this

i was following the “ray of light” tutorial and got stuck in this part where it ask me to modify the center point of the object.

9c) Choose menu option “Modify/Transform/Edit center”.
9d) Click once on the left most letter, capital “L”. Where it’s center was, there is a larger than usual cross hair. Grab this cross hair and move it to the right most edge of the blue bounding box which contains the whole lightL graphic. It is better to overlap on the outside of the blue bounding box than inside. But zoom in for this operation. You want it as close to that blue line as possible.

for some reason i cant find the option edit center in my Flash MX >.< … anyone can assisst me .

there is no “edit center” option in flash mx
There is a tute to edit the center though it does not really edit the center. It edits the center for object transfrom(rotation n’ stuff) but when you ener the mc thge center point it actually the same…

oh i see =)

but then for the “ray of light” tutorial, i can skip this part 'bout editing the center point ?

no one reply me :-\

The center point is called the registration point.

When you turn your item into a symbol, in the panel where you can select what type of symbol (mc, button, or graphic) there is a block of 9 squares, each of these squares represents a spot where you can adjust the registration point. Click on that spot that most resembles where in the tutorial.

I have never done the ROL tutorial, it is a bit lengthy for my taste…lol.

oh , okay … thanx, moi go try it out now :rambo:

Good luck :slight_smile:
