In earlier parts of this tutorial, you made changes in the Document
Settings dialog box. You set the dimensions and frame rate (fps) for the
SWF file. In this final section, you will make sure that the Flash Player
setting you want to target is correct, and that you export the files you need.
Many Flash developers make these settings when they start the FLA file,
because they are aware of what they need to output and target.
1.
Open the banner2.fla file from Part 2 of this tutorial
Creating a banner, Part
If you don't have banner2.fla, open banner3.fla from the tutorial
source files (see
"Open the finished project" on page
the start folder.
2.
Select File > Save As and then rename the file banner3.fla.
3.
Select File > Publish settings.
The Publish Setting dialog box opens, where you can change many
different settings for publishing your files.
4.
Click the Formats tab, and then make sure that the Flash (.swf) check
box is selected.
5.
Deselect the HTML option.
For this exercise, you don't need to output an HTML page.
6.
Click the Flash tab, and select Flash Player 6 from the Version pop-up
menu.
When you add Flash advertisements to an HTML page, use Flash
Player 6 or earlier (as of the time of writing). Many Flash developers
still use Flash Player 5, although sites are starting to use Flash Player 6,
which enables you to add additional functionality in your Flash
advertisements.
7.
Select ActionScript 1.0 from the ActionScript version pop-up menu.
For this example, you wrote ActionScript 1.0 style code (in Part 2), and
although this setting does not matter it's a good habit to check which
version you have selected. You can write ActionScript 2.0 and publish
to Flash Player 6 if you want.
