Add content to a presentation slide

You'll add navigation buttons to the presentation slide so that the buttons appear on each slide in the presentation.

  1. In the Screen Outline pane, select the presentation slide thumbnail. In the Timeline, select Frame 1 of the Navigation layer.
  2. From the Library panel, drag the btn, next symbol to the screen, placing it within the black band at the bottom of the screen.
  3. In the Property inspector, with the button still selected, enter 280 in the X text box and 165 in the Y text box to place the button.

    Note: The coordinates that you enter are in relation to the default center registration point of the slide. For more information about the registration point in screens, see "Specifying the ActionScript class and registration point of a screen (Flash Professional only)" in Using Flash Help.

  4. Enter forwardBtn in the Instance Name text box.
  5. Drag btn, prev to the slide and use the Property inspector to enter 245 in the X text box and 165 in the Y text box.
  6. Enter backBtn in the Instance Name text box.
  7. In the Screen Outline pane, select each nested slide to verify that the buttons now appear on all slides.

    Note: Content on a parent screen appears slightly dimmed when you view it on a nested screen.
