everything is in the title...
anyway, can anyone help and answer this:
how do you do an alpha gradient?
howdo you add an outline to your brush?
and with a music, i'd like to have the song playing when i play my animation (with enter) even if i don't start the play at the begining of the song (at the first frame the song start)
ofcourse, i'm using flash.
if i'm not clear enough, tell me, i'll try to be more accurate

ok

1. for alfa gradient go to the linear or radiant colour option, and make both the colours the same. then click on one of the colours and set the alfa above it to 0.

2. click the ink bottle tool, and click on the object you want the outline on.

3. click on a frame of the sound. go to properties and set it to stream.

waw man, thanks alot ! \n0n/
but for the outline, i'd like that when i use the brush, it automatically add the outline, because with you're thechnique, i have to outline the stick after i've draw it.
and thanks again, the gradient thing was a real torture for me.

There's no way to outline it while you're drawing it

You must draw it first and then outline it :3

oh and a helpful tip...

so you want to convert line tool and make an outline, but when you do that. it just changes the line's colour. what you will need to do is to click the object, go to modify, shape and click convert line to fill or shape watever lol
then you can outline it :)
