Flash MX ActionScript: The Designers Edge

Get the Edge on Flash ActionScript from the Designer's Perspective As a professional web designer you want to use ActionScript to add interactivity to your Flash creations. But previous books on ActionScript have assumed you have a programming background, leaving out key details in order to cover a lot of ground. In the process many designers and other professionals new to programming have been left behind. Flash MX ActionScript: The Designer's Edge fills these gaps, using a consistently visual approach that emphasizes conceptual illustrations and color charts. These are complemented by interactive tutorials on the book's companion website. Best-selling author J. Scott Hamlin and multimedia instructor Jennifer S. Hall make everything from fundamentals to high-end techniques accessible by truly teaching you how ActionScript works, not just presenting code. Key topics you'll learn about include: * The Flash MX interface to ActionScript * Programming mouse interactivity * Writing and reusing ActionScript * Coding core animation techniques * Working with text fields * Doing the math: Creating curving paths with trig functions * Handling object collisions and other gaming techniques * ActionScript drawing techniques * Encapsulating reusable code with ActionScript components * Debugging and troubleshooting your ActionScript
