- Click and hold the Rectangle tool to reveal the Oval and Polystar tools then select the shape tool to use
- Before drawing the shape, set some colors for your shape with the two swatches located at the bottom of the Tools panel
- The Fill color swatch (paint bucket icon) lets you set what color to fill shape
- The Stroke Color swatch (ink bottle icon) is for the outline color
- Alternatively, Flash allows choosing colors from the Swatches panel
