Hand:
This tool moves your whole movie around the stage and saves you
from having to select everything or move individual frames.
Tip:
To quickly use the hand tool without selecting it from the tool bar
hold the space bar down. You will notice your mouse pointer will change
into the hand tool. Now drag the stage and when you're finished let to
of the space bar.
Ink Bottle:
This tool creates lines around objects. For example, after selecting the tool
and clicking on a circle object it will create a circular line around it. This
can then be turn into a separate object.
Lasso:
This is used for selecting single or multiple objects in hard to reach places by allowing you to draw a line which then becomes the selection.
Line:
This tool does what the title suggests. It draws lines. Useful for drawing
polygons and other weird shapes the Oval and Rectangle tools can't deal with.
