Introduction

The Eraser Tool in Flash is a little different from standard eraser tools in other programs. Just like the [link url=]Brush Tool, you can control the size and shape of Flash's eraser tool using the brush options dropdown in the Options section at the bottom of the tool panel; this, however, is not what makes Flash's Eraser Tool so different, as most programs offer the standard option to change your brush.

The Eraser Tool is, naturally, designed to erase what's already drawn on your canvas. But Flash lets you fine-tune just how it erases, using the Eraser Tool's options.
