Structuring the movie - the layers
The movie consists of two frames. The opening frame collects user information.
The second frame displays the calculated repayment.
The movie is made up of the following layers:
- functions
- actions
- validation
- UI - for the user interface elements
- labels
See the sample fla file for more information.
I added keyframes to the first and second frames of both the actions and labels
layers. I added a stop action on each frame of the actions layer.
I named the first and second frames of the labels layer start and
calculate respectively. I'll use the frame names in my
gotoAndPlay actions. It's better to use names as a reference rather than frame
numbers as it means you can add frames later without have to change
your references.
