Yeah, snore is right. You can get some VERY basic shapes that kinda look like a wire framew but believe me, it'll never become what your looking for.

Yeah, you can draw them, but you WILL NOT be able to export them into a usable wireframe for a 3D program.

Ok. Another question, I want to import some ring shaped items from photoshop to flash. How can I make and import a ring without the inside showing up white. I mean, when I draw a circle lasso and stroke it in a transparent windows its fine. But when I save it as .jpg it becomes like white are in the middle of the circle, how can i get rid of it because in flash when I open 2 rings one ring blocks another. How can I get rid of the white space in the middle of the rings?

2 Ways:

1) Don't make it a jpg (jpeg), because they don't support transparency. Save it as a .gif, and the option is under there to make sure it's transparent (I've never actually done it I don't think).

2) If you WANT a jpg, then just fill the background layer with the color that is going to be on your Flash movie. Unless the color behind is going to change, then you're gonna' have to use #1

The best way to get transparency into Flash is to use the PNG format - this has an aplha channel with transparency data. Use the PNG options in Phortoshops Save for Web.

With PNGs I've found you can animate transparent graphics easily in Flash - they are larger than Jpegs so use them economically.
