Asked about Macromedia FreeHand. To create a simple checkerboard object in Macromedia FreeHand 10, follow these steps: 1. Open Macromedia FreeHand 10 and create a new document. 2. Select the Rectangle Tool from the toolbar. 3. Draw a square to be one of the checkerboard's tiles. 4. Use the Fill tool to color the square either black or white. 5. Copy the square (Ctrl+C) and then paste it (Ctrl+V) to create a duplicate. 6. Move the duplicate square next to the original square and fill it with the opposite color. 7. Select both squares using the Selection Tool. 8. Group them together (Modify > Group or Ctrl+G). 9. Copy and paste the grouped squares to form one row of the checkerboard. 10. Repeat the process to create multiple rows, alternating colors as necessary, until you have a complete checkerboard pattern. 11. Group the entire checkerboard once it's complete for easier manipulation. This approach allows you to create a basic checkerboard effect in FreeHand by using simple shapes and duplications.
