… and I think the answer is “no”, but I’m going to ask anyway.
Is there a quick way to outline text? (y’know… black outline around white text…)
I know you can draw lines a whole lot and hope for the best, but
that takes too long
and more importantly
if you use a complex font it’ll probably look clumsy.

Yes…Break apart the font and use the ink bottle tool!

Thanks.

I’d been working with Flash for a year before I knew that you could use the ink bottle to add lines to a fill. Go figure… sometimes things just don’t stick.
