Hello,
I am wondering is it possible that we can create a shape with mouse then fill color with mouse in canvas.
I am not talking inside animateCC app but in exported animatecc canvas file.

Thanks

Sorry that nobody replied to your question in the last month. Hopefully you made progress on your own.

Animate's HTML5 Canvas uses CreateJS, and so anything that you can do in CreateJS should be possible. Read this topic to see what sort of code would be needed to do a drawing at runtime:

How to draw with mouse on Html 5 canvas inside browser (using createJs).

Sorry Colin for resurrect this old zombie post. 
But the link does not work anymore, and I have the feeling this is the type of info I need.

I've been looking at EaselJS and CreateJS, but my programming skills aren't enoug to understand how to bring something is working in javascript+library to a Canvas file in Adobe Animate. 

 

Would you point me some phases or words to search for this in a propper way?

That removed topic is likely to have referred to this page:

https://createjs.com/tutorials/Mouse%20Interaction/

 

Look about 3/4 down the page, for the finger paint example. Unfortunately, you do have to be a bit familiar with JavaScript to get far with this.
