Résumé

Whether you are entirely new to Flash or an advanced beginner looking to master Flash MX 2004's extensive feature set, Flash Out of the Box is for you. This book is ideal for all readers-including programmers-who need to learn the Flash development environment's panels and windows, drawing tools, animation tools, and media-related features, such as audio and video.

This unique learning approach helps you quickly master the essential Flash techniques.

Everything you need is here, including trial software, to create and publish Flash content for the Web, for handhelds, and for CD-ROM.

You'll get up to speed faster than with any other tutorial Flash book available. Conversational style and advice on best practices make you feel like you're learning from a knowledgeable colleague, not a textbook.

Reader-centric approach covers what you want to learn in the order you want to learn it. Hands-on exercises keep you motivated by explaining when and why to use each feature, helping you accomplish meaningful goals.

Instead of swamping you with unnecessary details the first time you learn a feature, each topic is revisited in more depth as your knowledge and needs grow.

Sidebars provide advanced details without bogging down the main text with tangents. You'll learn just the right amount of ActionScript to accomplish intermediate goals, such as loading assets on the fly and adding interactivity, without overwhelming code examples.

"Get Out of the Box" sections help you leverage the skills you've already mastered.

So get ready to make the sprint from Flash newbie to budding expert. Flash Out of the Box will get you out of the starting block and around the track in record time!
