1. Wednesday, March 12th: How to have an ability to go to the previous slide. The ActionScript 2.0 code for a previous_btn Button to navigate backwards through the slides or menu items.

  2. Flowers in an Urn slide show and code - March 11th, 2008.

  3. Assignment #3: Show me your own slides in an FMA style Flash presentation.

  4. Student Example Slide Shows from summer of 2007 class.

  5. The Flash Tutorial Cafe Townsend application.

    The Flash Tutorial Cafe Townsend application modified so it has No Tweens. Notice the abrupt and delayed transitions as you click the Next button. Why Abrupt? The Motion Tweens are gone from the slideShow Symbol's Timeline. Why very noticeably delayed? Because I slowed it down from 60 to 12 fps (Frames Per Second).

    Compare and view them in the same web page: Flash Tutorial Cafe Townsend application, both versions.

  6. Link to the Tutorial: Building Your First Flash Application material. Page 95 to page 132 of the PDF document. You have this with Flash 8 via the Help menu, if you installed Flash 8 on your PC.

  7. Pretty Flowers instead of food items. Same FMA, different images and image sizes.

    1. Summer Salad

    2. Turkey and Sun-dried Tomato Sandwich.

    3. Seared Salmon

    4. New York Cheesecake

  8. The ActionScript code that you can COPY and PASTE into your F9 ActionScript window and have fewer errors than from Adobe. 

    function testFunc( eventObj : Object ) {

    menu_mc.title_txt.text       = "Testing the title";
    menu_mc.description_txt.text = "Testing the description";
}

next_btn.addEventListener( "click", testFunc );
  9. The ActionScript code for if you DO NOT HAVE a separate "images" FOLDER.

  10. The ActionScript code if your folder is named seasons and your files are named fall.jpg, winter.jpg, spring.jpg and summer.jpg.

  11. The class handout tutorial for the FMA example. This is from Adobe, but it only the essential pages and paragraphs. It does include some extra graphics that were not included in the class handout in order to save paper.
