| Adding the Content. |
|
 |
|
|
| Step 11. |
| Next we'll be adding the content for the website. Create a layer called 'content' in the main MC, and then create a light grey rounded rectangle. |
|
|
|
| |
| Step 12. |
| This will be used for background of each section, so convert it to an MC called 'sectionBackground. We'll also be using it has a mask as the sections scroll, so give it an identifier of the same name, by ticking the 'export for actionscript' box. |
|
|
|
| |
| Step 13. |
| So, now that we've created an MC for the background, we'll start creating each section. Convert the background to a new MC called 'section_flash'. Give it the identifier 'section_flash' also. This identifier will be used later to add the section dynamically using actionscript. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Step 14. |
| Now we're going to add some content to the 'section_flash' MC. I've added a header to an new layer in the MC, using the settings below. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 15. |
| Some body text using the settings below. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 16. |
| Next I've added some some thumbnails, which i'll be creating some actionscript to make them open a new window. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 17. |
| Convert the thumbnail to a new mc 'flash_thumb_0' |
|
|
|
|
| Step 18. |
| Give it an instance name with the same name, so that we can use actionscipt to make it do something. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 19. |
| Create several more thumbnails, each with a different instance name. As you can see below, ive give tne 2nd thumbnail the instance name 'flash_thumb_1' |
|
|
|
|
| Step 20. |
| Now create a layer called 'script'. The code below tells flash to open a new window and go to the URL, when 'flash_thumb_0' is pressed. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 21. |
| Now add the code for each of the other thumbnails |
|
|
|
|
| Step 22. |
| Now that we've create the first content section, we can use it as a template to create the others. Right click on the section_flash MC from the library and choose 'duplicate'. You'll then be presented with the follow window. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 23. |
| Change it's name to a new section, and give it the same identifier. As you can see i've changed it to photoshop, as i'll be changing the flash thumbnails to photoshop thumbnails. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 24. |
| Open up the new section MC, and change the brightness of the background. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 25. |
| Add some different thumbnails, giving them new instance names. Then add some new text. |
|
|
|
|
| Step 26. |
| Change the code so that the new thumbnail instance names are refered to. |
