Flash glossary: Ink Bottle tool
To change the stroke color, width, and style of one or more lines or shape outlines in Adobe Flash Professional, use the Ink Bottle tool. You can apply solid colors, gradients, and bitmaps to lines or shape outlines. Use the Color panel to select the desired color, gradient, or bitmap.
Using the Ink Bottle tool, rather than selecting individual lines, makes it easier to change the stroke attributes of multiple objects at once.
To use the Ink Bottle tool, follow these steps:
- Select the Ink Bottle tool from the Tools panel.
- Select a stroke color from the Tools panel options, Property inspector, or the Color panel.
- Select a stroke style and stroke width from the Property inspector.
- Click an object on the Stage to apply the stroke modifications.
To learn more about working with the Ink Bottle tool, see the section titled Adjust stroke and fill color in the Flash documentation.
