Slide presentation does - too early for the dont's

By admin on 14 Mar | 0 comments

Been struggling trying to get some flash presentations up and running today, some what different to what goes on with powerpoint.

Here’s what I discovered - when creating screens the first screen in a stack attached to that parent is displayed with the parent (that just he way it is) and counted as a whole and every subsequent screen is independent.

Also the code below is part of the screen transitions that can be created from the behaviors menu (Windows toolbar) – looks interesting ie the reveal method could allow different swf files to be loaded into memory on loading of the screen.

Note the reveal method shall only function on the screen and not on the frames timeline.

on (reveal) {

// Transition behavior
if (!eventObj.target._isSlide || (eventObj.target._isSlide && eventObj.target.currentSlide)) {
mx.transitions.TransitionManager.start (eventObj.target,
{type:mx.transitions.Squeeze,
direction:0, duration:2, easing:mx.transitions.easing.None.easeNone,
dimension:1, param2:empty});

eventObj.target.__transitionManager._triggerEvent = eventObj.type;
}
// End Transition behavior

}
