Once he designs the direct mail piece the way he likes it, he chooses Layout > Duplicate
to duplicate the content into a Web layout in the same project. Now he can work on the
HTML version of the page in the same file.
A Web layout created by duplicating the Print layout.
Now he duplicates the Web layout into an Interactive layout, again by choosing Layout >
Duplicate.
To add some interactivity, he decides to make the guitar glide in from the right when an
end user opens the SWF presentation. To accomplish this, he does the following:
• He adds a red line, which serves as the path the guitar will travel along. Using the
Interactive palette, he makes it a Basic object and names it "GuitarPath." Under Options,
he chooses Initially Hidden (so that the end users don't see the line).
• He selects the guitar graphic and uses the Interactive palette to make it an Animation
object named "SlidingGuitar." To indicate that it should move along the red line, he chooses
Item on a Path from the Display as drop-down menu, and then chooses GuitarPath (the
red line) from the Path drop-down menu. To set the speed of the slide, he enters 4 in the
Speed field.
