Actionscript 2.0 Slide show

Depending on how your particular project is setup you should be able to add stop(); to the first frame of your movie to initially pause the animation.

To change the size of the flash file you would modify the document’s dimensions. This is generally under “Modify -> Document” in Flash. Changing those dimensions will change the “Stage” you’re working on, and not the elements contained within (that’s why they were looking distorted).

There are several different ways to insert Flash into an HTML page and I find using SWFObject the simplest way (http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/)

There is a component in the Flash file that keeps track of time (it’s a clock icon). If you select that item you can change the value (the lesser the number, the faster the slide transitions)
