Add screen navigation behaviors to buttons

When you open a new Flash Slide Presentation, the document already includes functionality that lets users navigate between slide screens using the keyboard arrow keys. You'll also add navigation behaviors to the buttons, offering users an additional option to navigate between slides.

Note: By default, keyboard arrow keys let you navigate between screens on the same level, not between nested screens.

  1. On the presentation slide, select the forwardBtn instance. In the Behaviors panel (Window > Development Panels > Behaviors) click the Add (+) button, and then select Screen > Go to Next Slide from the menu.
  2. On the presentation slide, select the backBtn instance. In the Behaviors panel (Window > Development Panels > Behaviors) click the Add (+) button, and then select Screen > Go to Previous Slide from the menu.
  3. Select Control > Test Movie, and click the buttons in the SWF file window that appears, to ensure your buttons function as expected. When you finish testing your document, close the SWF file window.
