Working with graphic objects overview

In Macromedia Flash MX 2004 and Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004, graphic objects are items on the Stage. Flash lets you move, copy, delete, transform, stack, align, and group graphic objects. You can also link a graphic object to a URL. Keep in mind that modifying lines and shapes can alter other lines and shapes on the same layer. See Drawing.

Note: Graphic objects in Flash are different from ActionScript objects, which are part of the ActionScript programming language. Be careful not to confuse the two uses of the term. For more information on objects in the programming language, see About data types.
