undoing Steps in Flash

In a perfect world, everything would go according to plan But sometimes you need

to move back a step or two and start over You can undo steps in Flash using the

Undo command or the History panel

To undo a single step in Flash, choose Edit > Undo or press Ctrl/Command+Z To

redo a step you’ve undone, choose Edit > Redo

To undo multiple steps in Flash, it’s easiest to use the History panel, which displays

a list of all the last 100 steps you’ve performed Closing a document clears its

his-tory To access the History panel, choose Window > Other Panels > Hishis-tory

For example, if you aren’t satisfied with the newly added text, you can undo your

1 Choose Edit > Undo to undo the last action you made You can choose the

Undo command multiple times to move backward as many steps as are listed in the History panel You can change the maximum number of Undo commands

by selecting Flash > Preferences

2 Choose Window > Other Panels > History to open the History panel.

3 Drag the History panel slider up to the step just before your mistake Steps

below that point are dimmed in the History panel and are removed from the project To add a step back, move the slider back down

Previewing Your Movie

As you work on a project, it’s a good idea to preview it frequently to ensure that you’re achieving the desired effect To quickly see how an animation or movie will appear to a viewer, choose Control > Test Movie > in Flash Professional You can also press Ctrl+Enter or Command+Return to preview your movie

1 Choose Control > Test Movie > in Flash Professional

 Note: If you remove

steps in the History

panel and then perform

additional steps, the

removed steps will no

longer be available.

Flash creates a SWF file in the same location as your FLA file and opens and

plays the file in a separate window A SWF file is the compressed, published file

that you would upload to the Web

Flash automatically loops your movie in this preview mode If you don’t want

the movie to loop, choose Control > Loop to deselect the option

2 Close the preview window.

3 Click on the Stage with the Selection tool Note at the bottom of the Properties

inspector that the SWF History displays and keeps a log of the file size, date, and

time of the most recent SWF file published This will help you keep track of your

work progress and revisions

Publishing Your Movie

When you’re ready to share your movie with others, publish it from Flash For most

projects, Flash will create an HTML file and a SWF file The SWF file is your final

Flash movie, and the HTML file tells your Web browser how to display the SWF

file You’ll need to upload both files to the same folder on your Web server Always

test your movie after uploading it to be certain that it’s working properly

1 Choose File > Publish Settings.

2 Click the Formats tab

 Note: You’ll learn

more about publishing options in Lesson 10.

3 Select Flash (.swf) and HTML (.html).

4 Click the HTML tab.

5 Deselect the Loop option.

6 Click Publish at the bottom of the Publish Settings dialog box.

7 Click OK to close the dialog box.

8 Navigate to the Lesson01/01Start folder to see the files Flash created.

Saving Your Movie

You’ve already saved your Flash movie as an FLA file, but another option is to save

your movie in an uncompressed format known as an XFL format The XFL format is

actually a folder of files rather than a single document The XFL file format exposes

the contents of your Flash movie so that other developers or animators can easily

edit your file or manage its assets without having to open the movie in the Flash

application For example, all the imported photos in your Library panel appear in a

Library folder within the XFL format You can edit the library photos or swap them

with new photos Flash will make the substitutions in the movie automatically

1 Choose File > Save As.

2 Name the file 01_workingcopy.xfl and choose Flash CS5 Uncompressed

Document (*.xfl) Click Save

Flash creates a folder named 01_workingcopy, which contains all the

information about your Flash movie

Modifying an XFL document

In this step, you’ll modify the Library folder of the XFL document to make changes

to your Flash movie

1 Open the LIBRARY folder inside the 01_workingcopy folder.

The folder contains all the photos you imported into your Flash movie

2 Select the photo3.jpg file and delete it.

3 Drag the photo4.jpg file from the 01Start folder and move it to the LIBRARY

folder inside the 01_workingcopy folder Rename photo4.jpg as photo3.jpg.

Swapping out photo3.jpg with a new image in the LIBRARY folder automatically makes the change in the Flash movie

4 To open an XFL document, double-click the xfl file.

The last image in keyframe 24 of your Timeline has been swapped with the photo4.jpg image with which you made the substitution
