FLASH: Centering objects/text

[Erich Miller]

Thank you Sienna, John, and Joe for your replies. I will try out those suggestions for tracing bitmap

images.


Another small, stupid question though....


Usually, when I make an image, or type some text and make it a symbol, I'll Cut and Paste it to center it

on the work area...and usually it will center on the + mark. But for some reason, it's giving me an

attitude and not centering properly. If I move the scroll bar up (or down) away from the + mark, it

centers to however the page is positioned. I now have to manually go to Window -> Inspectors -> Object and

change the x y coords to 0,0. I tried checking the "Use Center Point" box and set & apply them to 0,0, but

when I go back to the work area and cut and paste again, it 'forgets' the coords and changes them to

something like x 6.0  and  y -7.5. Do I have something 'set' wrong?! Help!!! ;-)


    Thanks again,

    Erich
