Test The Application - MACROMEDIA FLASH 8-FLASH Tutorials Manual

176 Creating Graphics: Making Animations with Easing (Flash Professional only)

Test the application

At any point during authoring, you can test how your application plays as a
SWF file. Because this tutorial contains no animation or interactivity, the
file will look the same in test mode as it does in authoring mode.
1. Select File > Save to save your FLA file.
2. Select Control > Test Movie.
3. When you finish viewing the application, close the SWF file by clicking
the close box in the test window.
You have now completed a successful complex animation using the custom
easing controls in Flash. By using these controls while tweening the various
properties of objects on the Stage, you can create a wide range of complex
motions and interesting visual effects.
