Q:
I downloaded SWISH and created a simple "welcome to our church"
movie in about 10 minutes! Now here's another question: Does the
.SWI file have to be inserted into an HTML document, just like a
.GIF ? ~ Mike
In order to
incorporate a SWISH file into your website, you need to go into
FILE and click on "Export to SWF" (or hit CTRL E), which changes
the SWISH file into a usable Flash file. This is, btw, a whole
lot smaller of a file. You also need to go into FILE and click
on Publish (or hit CTRL P), to publish your flash. ~ Carole
SWISH will
generate the required HTML code in it's own HTML file and the
SWF (FlashPlayer) file for you by using the PUBLISH command. All
you need do is copy the HTML code into your page, then copy the
SWF file to your web pages directory. Just make sure the Publish
options include creating the HTML code. And when you copy the
HTML code, make sure your paths are correct so the browser can
find the SWF file. ~ Jack
I highly recommend
SWISH as well... fast, easy to use, versatile. I am building a
new site and use a SWISH-generated intro made of 3 scenes. It
would have taken me forever to do it in Flash, but about 3/4 hour
in SWISH.
And the price
is right too. The new version (beta, as of March 2001) is very
promising as well, although it seems to crash just when you don't
want it too. A lesson in saving a file after every change. ~ Brad
Q:
I have seen a lot of sites with "turn sound off / on" features
in their flash. I know how to put events in Swish or Flash, and
I know how to play a sound in general, but how do you activate
or de-activate the sound? ~ Russ
For the answer,
continue here.
