To create a vertical guide, click the vertical ruler and drag to the right. As you drag, a small vertical line appears, giving you a preview of the vertical guide’s position. When the guide is in the desired position, release the mouse button, and flash will create a lime-green vertical guide. To create a horizontal guide, click the horizontal ruler and drag down. As you drag, a small horizontal line appears on the vertical ruler, indicating the current position of the guide. When the guide is in the desired position, release the mouse button. To toggle the visibility of guides, choose view guide show guides. When you choose this command, flash hides all visible guides from view. Select the command again and flash will reveal the hidden guides. After you create a series of guides, you can have flash snap objects to the guides by choosing view snapping snap to guides. After you choose this option, flash will snap objects to guides as you drag the object across the stage.
This snapping takes place at the handle you choose when you selected the object. For example, if you select the object by its center, snapping will occur when the center of the object approaches a guide. If you select the object by one of its corners, snapping will occur when the corner approaches a guide. As mentioned previously, the object’s handle becomes darker and slightly larger when it approaches a guide that it can snap to. When you use the snap to guides feature, it is a good idea to disable snapping to the grid. If you have both options enabled at the same time, flash will have so many targets to snap to that it will be difficult to ascertain when flash is snapping an object to the grid or to a guide. After you have created a guide, you can easily move it. As you near a vertical guide, a small arrow appears to the right of the cursor. Click the guide to select it, and then drag it to the desired position. Likewise, as you near a horizontal guide, a small downward-pointing arrow appears to the right of the cursor. Click the guide to select it and drag it to the desired position.
When you have a series of guides positioned just the way you want them, you can lock them to prevent inadvertently selecting and moving a guide when you meant to select an object. To have flash lock all guides used in your document, choose view guides lock guides. You can edit guides after you create them. You can change the color of guides and modify the snapping accuracy flash employs when you align objects to the guides. Choose view guides edit guides and flash will open the guides dialog box. In this dialog box, you can change the color of a guide and the accuracy level for guide snapping. To get rid of all the guide settings, select view guides clear guides. This will clear all settings and guides from the stage.
