Yeah thanks,I should have said shading not shadows.My bad! I'll try that.I've only had AS a short time and it is different from what I am used to.The basic manual or tutorials with it is a little TOO basic.That's why I've been surfing for help.

I was afraid I was explaining clearly.I made a simple example in flash showing the type of shadowing I am looking for.I don't see a way to attach my sample to this reply though.This is easy in flash but the process of drawing is a little different in AS.Maybe I am overlooking it.

I am used to using flash where creating a shadow on an object or character is easy.Not a shadow cast from another object by the shadow created on an object from a light source.If this doesn't make sense I can create a quick example in flash to show what I mean.Don't see anything in the basic tutoria...

Nice work.Did you use pro for that?I only have the standard but will upgrade later.I have done a lot of work with 3D programs and recently switched to AS.

Sorry,let me be more specific. If I start to move a character,particularly the legs,and after making several changes to the character decide I need to start over...how can I return the character to the position it was before I began without having to take the time to move everything back manually?In...

This may be posted but I haven't found it if it is.Is there a way to return a figure to it's original pose position?
I thought I read in a tutorial something about how to do this but can't find it now.
