When you first start flash, you will be presented with a window to open a Flash document, create a new Flash document, or start from a template.
Click on Flash File (ActionScript 3.0) to create a new blank Flash document.
The user interface consists of the following panels:ToolsLayersTimelineStageProperty InspectorPanels
Timeline: The line along the top of the Flash workspace which holds each Frame, from 1 to infinity; allows Flash to display animations frame-by-frame, much like a filmstrip or a childs animated flip book.
Frame: An individual moment in time within the animation; click on any frame in the timeline to see what is happening or displayed on that frame
Toolbars- are set of tools that are used to create text, symbols and animation.
Keyframe: A special frame where something can be designated to change or happen; i.e., a ball moving left can be told to start moving to the right at a keyframe
Layer: Individual tracks of the timeline; allows different elements to do different things at the same time by adding each element to its own layer
Stage: Just like in theater, this is where the action happens, or where the graphical and content elements of your work are put together and displayed
Panels can be displayed or shown by selecting or deselecting panels from the Windows menu.1. Click on the Windowsmenu.2. Click on an uncheckedpanel to display it or click on a checked panel to hideit.
When creating a new blank Flash document, set the document stage size immediately. Changing the stage size later may alter the position of your Flash objects.
To set the stage size, click the Modify menu and select Document.
The document window will appear to adjust the settings of the document
Set how fast the Flash document will play.You can also set the title and the stage background color and frame rate.
