Way back when, I had an issue with having to double-click the rectangle tool to add rounded corners to a rectangle object in Flash. Not sure who told me at MM at the time, but you can simply hold the mouse button when inserting a rectangle on the stage and hold down the up or down arrow keys to adjust the rounded corners *real-time*!
This was back in the Flash 4 days I believe, maybe it was 5, but anyhoo, I was creating a rectangle with rounded corners and a co-worker asked how i did that without using the prompt.
Thought you might find this tip useful!

Wow, cool! Thanks!
Hey no probs! I was creating rounded corners on a rectangle for a MC that has Slice-9 enabled.
I’m sure I won’t be the only one.
I’ll post more when I think about them.
Slice-9 Rocks! I can’t wait to play around with that feature.
cool trick, thanks =D

I forgot to mention the same goes for Fireworks.
Duuuuuuuuuude!!! No Way, I taught flash for a few years back in the day, and thats something I never came across OMG -

You don’t even know how long I have been trying to find an easy way to add roundded corners to a table in flash. Life is good. Many thanks.
Wow, I’m suprised how many people didn’t know about this.
Same here senocular.
It’s the same way like it works in illustrator or fireworks (and freehand i guess)
but it’s a great timesaver
Dude!
Thank you so much! I have been trying to figure out the easiest way to do it.
