IMD I - AS2 Review!

What is Actionscript? It's a programming language inside flash that we can use to make flash projects interactive.


Steps for controlling playback1. Create stop actions by placingstop(); - this is placed on a frameon the timeline
ALWAYS MAKE THE TOP LAYER OF A FILE THE CODE LAYER!

2. add frame labels on the properties menu

3. Create a button and add a statement to send the playback to a frame label.

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(“FRAME_LABEL_HERE");
}

Create a button
1. draw object
2. F8 – convert to symbol button
3. double click on the button you just created!
4. Modify up, over, down, and hit states

Hit state is invisible! It defines the area that makes the button react!
