This contains useful notes/tutorials for the module CO4740 and CO2711. It is an aid to getting you started with learning the basics of Flash and some advanced concepts such as Object-Oriented Programming within Flash.
It predominately looks at programming using ActionScript 3 within the Flash authoring envrionment. Many of the examples are useful for the development of your assignments.
Additional notes will be added, if people are stuck on a specific issue or I find something that I think you should know.
If you are new to Flash start with the basic tutorials to give you an overview then complete the intermediate.
NOTE:
The tutorials will be Flash CS3 with ActionScript 3. AS3 is considerably different to AS2 and many tutorials on the internet will not work when using AS3 for example:
AS2 = myMovieclip._xScale = 10
AS3 = myMovieClip.scaleX
= .10
These do the same thing but the syntax has changed.
