To move the brush stroke of one or more objects
inside or outside the path:
Select one or more objects.

Choose Window > Object.

Choose a stroke placement button.

Normally, the stroke appears over the fill. To draw the fill
on top of the stroke, check Draw Fill over Stroke in the
Object inspector.
Checking Draw Fill over Stroke in the Object inspector
fills selected objects all the way to the paths. With this
option checked, opaque fills may obscure the brush
strokes inside paths. Fills with a degree of transparency
may tint or blend with brush strokes inside paths.

Editing in object mode

In addition to dragging point handles, several Fireworks
tools edit paths in object mode.
The Freeform, Reshape Area, Path Scrubber, Redraw Path,
and Eraser (Knife) tools are the object mode editing tools.
