The Device Settings button can be used only if your publish settings are set to a supported version of Flash Lite.
View a document when multiple documents are open
When you open multiple documents, tabs at the top of the Document window identify the open documents and let
you easily navigate among them. Tabs appear only when documents are maximized in the Document window.
❖
Click the tab of the document you want to view.
By default, tabs appear in the order in which the documents were created. You can drag the document tabs to change
their order.
Save Flash documents
You can save a Flash FLA document using its current name and location or using a different name or location.
When a document contains unsaved changes, an asterisk (*) appears after the document name in the document title
bar, the application title bar, and the document tab. When you save the document, the asterisk is removed.
