Well you'll need to make sure the flash file doesn't scale ... this might be one reason why it looks like it's too big. I couldn't get the pencil to move or draw anything on the paper so i couldn't tell you if the line is to thick or not.

You should be able to tell the file not to scale in the settings panel. Then click on HTML at the top of the panel ... should be towards the bottom a drop down menu called Scale: Default(show all) ... change this to no scale. should be the correct size then.

well, the pencil is used with the arrow key, its draw with the spacebar, and the pencil is rotated(??) with control and shift...
for the thickness off the line, i think thats controlled in the lineStyle parameters
and your line... those are lots of circles, not a line :P, if u want a line, you have to make lineTos to the position of the pencil... hope that helps
(i think ill make an example, just wait a bit) :angel:

like ive said before... i just love myself :angel:

arrows = movement;
spacebar = drawing;

click on a coloured square to change the lines color;
click on one of the three lines in the top-left corner to change the thickness;

enjoy ;), im pleased to help whenever i can :pleased:

PS: it has some obvious errors, but i left that the way it is, so u can play with the code and get the solutions for yourself :book:

HEY OCELOT! I'm NOT NOOBISH! anyways, I have an idea....Why not have a contest? Like use one of the .fla's featured here and make the best drawing? That way you can see which 1 works better. Just an IDEA.

[NiñoScript]

bad idea... becouse, a good artist can use the worst tool and make art :S

[InfestedDemon]

:link: : I think its a good idea 'cause here in hyrule theres nothing to do.
:angel: : Its rubbish because people have different art skills
:nerd: : Does not compute! ha ha ha!
:rambo: : Rubbish Idea ryan shah
:liar: : Good idea.
:mario: : It's a rubbish idea!
:jail: (Ryan): I Get the point.
:cop: : Ello Ello Ello What do we have ere than? A rubbish idea?
:jail: (Ryan): So the end thing is no Nino?

Quite Ryan.

Can anyone tell me how to make the pencil mouse controlled?, I want when you move the mouse, the pencil moves, and when you press and hold the left click button you draw.. Also, How can I make an Ink meter (Where the more you draw, the more it goes down, until you have to refill)

OCELOT (Bro) You could just ask me. (a) just make the pencil a cursor and (b) change the spacebar command in the ActionScript to MouseClick and (c) I don't have a clue.

Changed the line and speed

Okay. First you need to make it so that if you move it without drawing it DOESN'T create a line. mabey add that as a nice feature. I know how it feels when your bro is right, but I think he is when he say to make it on mouse down, and to make it a cursor. but then use the space bar to to the whole point to point strait line. also an eraser feature. FOR THE METER: Make a varible called "ink". make a bar and put this code on it


onClipEvent (load) { ink = 100;}onClipEvent (enterFrame) { this._width = _root.ink; if (_root.ink>100) { _root.ink = 100; } if (_root.ink<0) { _root.ink= 0; trace("NEED MORE INK!"); } if (this._width<_root.ink) { this._xscale = _root.ink; } if (this._width>_root.ink) { this._xscale = _root.ink; }}
