Adjust kerning in Flash 8
A design colleague of mine asked me if I knew how to kern characters in Flash. After some experimentation, I think I figured it out.
It’s all about the letter spacing input in the Property Inspector. Create some text, select the text box, and adjust the letter spacing slider in the Property Inspector, and you’ll find the space between all characters in the text box responds accordingly. We’re used to this.
Now, to adjust the kerning, use the text tool to highlight a single letter. Now adjust the letter spacing slider. You should see that the spacing is adjusted only to the right of the letter you selected. Bingo! Kerning in Flash.
