This brief tutorial illustrates necessary steps to convert a PowerPoint presentation into
a Macromedia Flash movie, and then we will discuss how to add a navigation bar to our
new Macromedia Flash movie allowing users to browse our slides.
Advantages
Limitations
PowerPoint animations and actions are lost with this approach, but they can be rebuilt
once our presentation is imported to Flash. Please see frequently asked questions at
the end of the document.
Background of PowerPoint presentations is also lost, but it can be easily imported into
Flash. Please see frequently asked questions at the end of the document.
Steps
A PowerPoint presentation is an
800x600 show, so we have set our
Flash movie dimensions to 800x600.
Click on OK.
Click on Open
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
on (press) {
prevFrame();
}
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
on (press) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
on (release) {
nextFrame();
}
1) Always add an empty slide at the end of your Powerpoint presentation. This
way, you will have a slide having only your background.
2) While in Presentation mode (Full Screen) press PrtSc key to “print your screen”
when your empty slide is being displayed. This will copy your background to
Windows clipboard.
3) Add a layer called BACKGROUND in Flash and make it your lower-most layer by
dragging it below of all your layers.
4) Paste the image by choosing Paste from Edit menu.
5) Prevent modifications to this layer by locking it (use the lock!).
1) Select the object in your Flash Movie and convert it into a Button symbol.
2) Add the necessary ActionScript lines to do it. For example, add the GetURL();
function to launch a browser window.
1) Actually it is very easy, but you must master some basics Flash concepts, going
beyond the scope of this tutorial. It takes several steps and will require a new
tutorial. Contact me at eduherna@entelchile.net if you need more information!
