How to Smooth Pencil Lines in Flash CS6?

[Guest]

Hello!

I've recently been trying to use the Flash CS6 on my college's computers, but the pencil tool lines come out terribly shaky. I can draw the line smooth, but as soon as I lift my pen, the lines become erratic. I have the exact same settings as the ones on my laptop at home as far as Flash and tablet. I don't have this problem in any other program.

Anyone happen to know a fix?

While the pencil is selected, look at the bottom icon in the tools palette, on the left of your screen (it's the Pencil Mode button). In your video you have that set to Straighten, so it's surprising your lines are not changing more than they do. The next option Smooth, which will keep the lines looking roughly the same, but will smooth them a little. The last option is Ink, which I think literally trusts you to draw the line correctly.
