LESSON 1

Adobe Flash CS3 Classroom in a Book

Lesson 1 uses a sample project to provide an overview

of the Flash workspace. Students are introduced to the

Tools panel, Library panel, Property inspector, and

Timeline. They also learn about layers and keyframes.

Starting Flash and opening a le

Demonstrate multiple ways of opening a document in

Flash: double-clicking the Flash document in Explorer

or Finder, starting Flash and choosing File > Open, and

selecting the document from the Welcome screen that

appears when you start Flash.

Emphasize the importance of saving the working copy

of the ﬁle to the lesson’s Start folder. In many lessons,

Flash documents reference other asset ﬁles, which must

be in the same folder as the Flash document.

Getting to know the work area

Identify and describe the following areas of the work-

space: Timeline, Tools panel, Stage, Library panel,

Property inspector, and the Edit bar above the Stage.

If you have Adobe Creative Suite 3 installed, you can

show students the similarities between panels in

Flash CS3 and panels in other Creative Suite 3

applications. The Timeline is similar to the Timeline

in Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe After Effects.

Understanding the Timeline

Invite students to move the playhead through (or

scrub) the Timeline to see the animation. As you move

the playhead, Flash displays the contents of the frame

on the Stage. Hide and show different layers on frames

to demonstrate how layers are stacked and that each

frame may contain content from multiple layers.

Keyframes are essential in animation. A keyframe in-

dicates a change, whether it be in the position or other

qualities of something on the Stage or the beginning

or end of an audio ﬁle. Students will use keyframes in

every Flash project, so it’s important that they under-

stand the keyframe’s purpose clearly.

Describe the difference between inserting a keyframe

and inserting a blank keyframe. When you insert a

keyframe, the keyframe contains the frame’s original

contents until you change it. When you insert a blank

keyframe, all content is removed from the frame so that

you can add new content.

Using the Property inspector

Demonstrate that the options in the Property inspector

change to reﬂect what’s selected. The Property inspec-

tor can display properties for the entire document, the

selected frame, or the selected instance of a symbol.

Which options are available for an instance depend on

whether the symbol is a movie clip, graphic, or button

symbol. (Symbols are covered in more detail in Lesson

3.) To apply values you’ve set in the Property inspector,

press Enter or Return.

Using the Tools panel

The Tools panel contains several tools for selecting,

drawing, editing, and navigating. Demonstrate that

some tools are grouped together, and a tool may be

hidden beneath another. To select a hidden tool, click

the triangle in the icon of the displayed tool, and then

select the hidden tool from the pop-up menu.

Beneath the tools is the tools options area. The options

available depend on the selected tool. Demonstrate that

the options area changes as you select different tools.

When you select the Rectangle tool, the Object Draw-

ing mode icon appears; when you select the Zoom

tool, the Enlarge and Reduce icons are available;

when you select the Pencil tool, the Pencil mode

icons are available.
