142 Basic Tasks: Create a Presentation with Screens (Flash Professional Only)

Add content to a new slide

The features slide, as a child of the presentation slide, inherits properties

from that slide. Additionally, because the features slide is a parent to the

three slides that you copied and pasted, content that you add to that slide

appears on the three children slides.

1. In the Screen Outline pane, select the features thumbnail. From the

Library panel, drag the Features Content symbol to anywhere in the

Document window.

2. In the Property inspector, give the instance of Features Content an

instance name of features_mc.

3. In the Property inspector, enter -275 in the X text box and -130 in the

Y text box to place the instance.

Add transition behaviors

Although your presentation is fairly complete, you’ll add transition

behaviors to make the presentation more interesting. Specifically, you’ll add

behaviors that make content fade and appear to fly off the Document

window.

1. In the Screen Outline pane, select the features slide. In the Behaviors

panel, click Add (+) and select Screen > Transition from the menu.

2. In the Transitions dialog box, select Fade from the list of transitions and

view the preview in the lower-left side of the dialog box. Verify that 2

seconds is selected as the duration and that In is selected as the direction,

and then click OK.

3. In the Behaviors panel, click Reveal in the Event column to open the

pop-up menu and select revealChild. The revealChild option specifies

that the behavior will reveal the next child screen.
