Stroke function in Fireworks

[Victor]

Hi guys,

I'd like to apply a sort of "Photoshop stroke" function with Fireworks.
I'm using Fireworks, and when I select something, there is the selection,
right? Well I want the border to be 1 pixel wide, and to paint the border in
blue. This is "Stroke" in Photoshop. How can I do that with Fireworks?
Thanks,

V.

Choose Select > Border Marquee. Enter a number. Fill in with the Paint
Brush tool. The method I prefer is to copy the selection to the
Clipboard, deselect the image, switch back to the pointer tool, and
paste the selection back in as a floating image object. You can then use
a Glow or Inner Glow live effect set to 0 softness on the floating
object to create the outline in any color and width you like.

Re FWMX04 inner glow:

Has anyone been able to get a 1px inner glow - I can only get down to 2px.

Cheers
