Presenting your slides
Use the controls at the bottom of the application or your keyboard’s arrow keys to move
between slides during your presentation. Press the Left Arrow and Right Arrow keys to move
to the corresponding previous and next slides; press the Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys to
jump to the first and last slides.
You can also print each slide in your presentation by clicking the Print icon. If you know that
you won’t print your slides, you can delete the icon from the layout.
Customizing your slide presentation
If you want to change the colors in the template, select Modify > Document, and change the
background color. The presentation background changes to the newly selected color.
Additionally, many templates come with alternate backgrounds. Show and hide the additional
background layers to expose alternate designs.
You can match the background to your company’s color scheme, or you can select something
bright and eye-catching to capture your audience’s attention.
Using the screen presentation templates (Flash
Professional only)
The screen presentation templates included with Flash Professional 8 use screens to make it
easy for you to create a professional-looking slide presentation. You can add new slides to the
outline and place text, graphics, imported media, and components on those slides to add
to content.
After adding slides, you can use the Behaviors panel to add transitions between slides. Flash
provides some sample slides with transitions to help you get started.
After you’ve customized your presentation, preview it by selecting Control > Test Movie from
the application menu.
Slides have built-in navigation. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard or the navigation
buttons that are part of the template’s design to move forward and backward through
your presentation.
Creating slides with the screen presentation templates
(Flash Professional only)
The Screen Outline pane shows thumbnails of the slides that appear sequentially in your
presentation. There are four ways to add new slides to a presentation.
