of the application. Although you can do that in the workspace toolbar, it may be simpler for
some people to use the storyboard editor.
How to open the storyboard editor?
• Double click on the application name in the workspace toolbar (or choose the Edit option
in the popup menu)
• Click on the Storyboard editor icon in the Navigation bar
• Press the keys Control-B
The display of the storyboard
The storyboard editor shows specific details for every frame of your application.
The display is organised in columns and lines. The columns are the following :
• Number: shows the number of the frame in the application
• Thumbnail: shows a reduced version of the frame
• Comments: displays information about the frame.
Each line corresponds to the specifics of a given frame. The comments section contains
several important data:
• Title: the name of the frame. Click on the name to rename it.
• Password: you can define a password for each frame. A menu option will be available
during runtime allowing the user to enter a password. If the password matches the one you
have defined, the application will run the corresponding frame.
• indicates a Multimedia Frame
• fade-in transition icon. This icon will be activated if a fade-in transition is defined.
Click on the icon to insert a transition.
