Introduction
This is a screen shot of iphone user interface I built in Flash using artwork imported from Adobe Illustrator.
All the icons are buttons and if you name them (instance name) and add code ActionScript the user will go to another screen that shows what the app would look like.
I’ve only added code to two buttons Weather and Clock.
Teacher demo of Flash iphone user interface.
Activities
Open Flash and follow teacher direction to make a Flash movie with buttons that control the timeline.
Key bit of code
stop();
Slide.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(“home”);
};
Download week 5: week5 into your folder and open the teacher example to see how it works.
Now open the student example in Flash. You have to add icon buttons, label frames, create instances to get example to go to and return from two screens.
Then I want you to copy and paste form the master Illustrator file to add additional screen grabs of apps.
Reflection
What did you learn today about coding in Flash?
