About adding media content to screens
(Flash Professional only)
You add media content to screens the same as you do to a Flash document that does not
contain screens. You can add media content to the screen that is currently selected in the
Screen Outline pane.
For general information on adding media content to a Flash document, see “About adding
media content” on page 29 .
Selecting and moving screens (Flash
Professional only)
When you select an individual screen in the Screen Outline pane, the screen appears in the
Document window. You can select multiple contiguous or discontiguous screens in the Screen
Outline pane to apply modifications to several screens at once. When you select multiple
screens, the contents of the first screen selected appear in the Screen Outline pane.
By default, the contents of a slide screen are not visible when you show the screen’s parent in
the Document window (the Hide Screen context menu option is selected). You can select to
show the contents of a slide screen when its parent appears by deselecting this option. When
the Hide Screen context menu option is deselected, you can select the child slide screen on the
Stage. This feature affects display during authoring only, not runtime playback. (The Hide
Screen context menu option is deselected for form screens by default. You can turn the option
on to hide child form screens in the display during authoring.)
You can cut, copy, paste, and drag screens in the Screen Outline pane to change their position
in the document, and you can remove screens from a document.
To view a screen in the Document window, do one of the following:
■
Click a screen thumbnail in the Screen Outline pane to view that screen.
■
With the Screen Outline pane in focus, use the keyboard keys to navigate to the screen.
■
Select View > Go To and select the screen name from the submenu, or select First,
Previous, Next, or Last to navigate through the screens.
■
Click the Edit Screen button at the right side of the edit bar and select the screen name
from the pop-up menu.
