Previewing keyframe animations
You can preview your animation at any time either in a web browser or in Flash
Player (Version 8.x is a DrawPlus install option). This is a quick way of checking
it prior to export.
To preview:
• Click the down arrow on the button on the Storyboard tab,
then choose to either:
• Preview In Browser.... The option displays a dialog which lets
you preview in your web browser either standalone or by loading
a target HTML page and associated SWF file (the target SWF file,
e.g. a WebPlus banner, will be replaced by the animation to be
previewed). Check Preview using existing HTML file for the
latter, then navigate to and select HTML and SWF files.
- or -
• Preview in Flash Player (default). Use the navigation controls to
review your animation as it would appear as an exported Flash
SWF file. The animation loads Flash Player (if installed) and
begins playing in a Flash Preview window.
