Flash MX 2004: Graphics, Animation and Interactivity provides a hands-on approach to learning the newest version of Macromedia Flash. Designed to help you understand in-detail how Flash works, the exercises and examples contained on the CD, when combined with the written material, provide the best of both worlds, not just telling you how, but showing you as well. For the beginner, there are plenty of exercises that are designed to get you up to speed quickly while intermediate to advanced Flash users will find new exercises that demonstrate the latest features, as well as some complex examples worth digesting. The book includes chapters on graphic techniques, bitmap graphic integration, typography and text, symbols, libraries, sound, animation, interactive techniques, as well as Flash's internal scripting language, ActionScript.
