Author go to next slide

Hi,
I am building a flash presentation to be played on screen on an exibition
soon. I have chosen to use Slide Presentation, but I don't know how to make the
slides automaticly move on to the next slide, and how to time the slide. (F.ex.
I need the first slide to run for 10 sec.)

Every example I find is with navigation buttons.

How do I solve it?

In the movie property window you specify the speed of the movie in Frames per
secs(fps). If you select 10 then you will need to display the movie in 100
consecutive frames to show it for 10 secs. Or better yet select 1 fps and you
will have to display the picture only in 10 frames.

How to make it move automatically to the next picture?
If you place the 1st picture on frame 1 through 10, 2nd picture on frames 11
through 20 and third on 21 through 30 the movie will automatically display your
pictures in this order with out stopping.

You know what would be cool? Just put 1 picture in each frame and a stop
function on each frame. Then put some simple action script saying on enter,
next frame. Then get one of them wireless powerpoint presenter thingys. That
way it looks really professional and you'll rule the boardroom.

My problem is, that the slide does not finish the first slide before it goes to the next slide. I cannot controle the time of the slides by the frames in the timeline.

Why not pause the frame for 10 secs?

The codes is below so just insert that in each frame and then each frame will
be paused for 10 secs but you can always change it



pauseTime = 10000;//in milliseconds: 1 second = 1000 ms;
stop();
start = getTimer();
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
end = getTimer();
if(end - start>=pauseTime){
delete(this.onEnterFrame);
play();
}
}

For the slide presentation authoring environment, you could give your slides
transition behaviors--say, to make them fade in over a ten second interval
each. Then, if you also give them "AllTransitionInDone-->Go to Next Slide"
behaviors, the presentation will advance automatically. (Of course, you may or
may not like all that fading. But there are lots of fade in variations in
Flash MX Pro 2004.)

By the way, there is a very good article in Macromedia's Developer Center
about transitions and applying them to slides: "Using the Tween and Transition
Classes in Flash MX 2004."
