I can't find any options for rounded corners in the draw palette in Flash CS6 and Google is not returning any answers. This seems like it should be so simply to do. I want to use the palette to draw a rectangle with rounded corners WITHOUT using actionscript. How can I do this?

Use the Rectangle Primitive Tool instead of the Rectangle Tool

Take a look at this: my.safaribooksonline.com/book/animation-and-3d/9780133052718/4dot-modifying-simple-graphics/ch04lev1sec9


With Flash’s rectangle- and oval-primitive tools, you create shapes
with paths defined by a set of properties specific to that shape. You
can’t change the outline of a primitive-shape freely the way you can
reshape the outline of a merge-shape or drawing-object. You can change
the primitive’s defining properties by dragging control points in the
shape or by setting new values in the Property inspector.


The rectangle-primitive has two control points for the corner radius of each corner. When the corner radius is set to 0, the corner is a sharp 90-degree angle, and the control points sit directly on top of one another.


Position the pointer over one of the control points. The pointer becomes a solid arrowhead.
To modify the shape, do one of the following:
• To increase the radius (make the corner more rounded), drag the point inward.
• To decrease the radius (make the corner less rounded), drag the point outward.
As the corner radius increases, two control points appear at the end of the arc defining the corner. Drag inward to round the corner more; drag outward to round it less.
