Flash CS3 Tutorial Add Buttons & Sound PART1

Hi, welcome to Flash CS3 tutorial. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create three buttons under control. Those three buttons include play, stop and pause button. You can do it easily with the help of out tutorial and using flash.

In this tutorial we are going to be talking about how to create three buttons under control and it sound that you have uploaded to server and I am going to create a play button and a pause button and a stop button. Now, to do all this using a flash file and if you are starting from scratch you wanna make sure you pick flash file Action script 3.2. Now we already have the file that we created in last tutorial called the lever graphics, we are gonna open that up. And you can see here all the information in this file. Now I kind of give a general overview of flash CS3 in the beginning of last tutorial, so we check that out.

Ammm and in this one this tutorial I am gonna show you how to add on to this other buttons. So I am gonna start here by adding a new layer and adding some buttons. So I am gonna call this layer and put at bottom here and I am gonna call this layer buttons and this will help to keep things organized. This layer is going to exist from frame one to frame hundred. And you can see, spans that but that is empty. And I am gonna add this buttons to right now.

Rectangle buttons and I am gonna pick those buttons in blue color. And I am gonna make those basic rectangle size and use the grid lines top me. I turn the grid lines on by going to view, grid and show grid lines, last tutorials. what I am gonna do is I am gonna take this and actually convert it to what flash will consider it but right now it’s not unofficial but. So, the way you gonna do that is the same way you would create a symbol, we created a symbol on last tutorial, we did a graphic in a last tutorial. This tutorial we are gonna make a button, so we wanna go to modify, convert to symbol and it will change this regular shape into a special symbol. Actually, why that’s open in just a second. I am gonna call it BTN, that’s for button in blue and click okay. No need to change or do anything else now you click ok. Now that does, that is converted to the symbol; it is placed in my library called BTN in blue. And over here you can see that it’s kind changed the appearance.

Ahmmm, this button will now function as button but it does not do like anything quiet as yet. And I can drag as many copies as I want, off course I wanna drag three copies here to a stage and its gonna be my play, pause and stop buttons. This the arrows keys and its kind of alignments up here is grid lines. And ones you have your buttons where you need them what we are gonna do is we are gonna add a special name to each of these. Buttons like play, pause and stop. And put the white text on a blue button and say play button, I want it in middle, copy and paste down. Hold it oops call it, pause and click other one stop all right. Now that we have our buttons placed, make grid lines off and now these are buttons, they will function as buttons.
And, amm in fact if I would preview this graphic as best the way that it would be put on the server and played on the internet, notice that the graphics is all ready started to play and the buttons, the buttons functions as buttons whenever my cursor will top with them. It changes the cursor, as we know that this are the functioning buttons, but they don’t do anything by click on. So I am gonna exit out of this and I am going to, now going first I will show you something about buttons.

If you double click on buttons it takes you to this special area, which actually lies at different up, over down and hit different things so you can actually add frames in here regular frame, key frame and you can have those buttons to different things, change color. So, we are not gonna talk too much about that. Now somebody go back to, as you have seen here and we will go in details of functionality, functionality to these buttons.
