Very detailed instructions for flash files

 Flash File size

the ipad mini is 1024x768
the ipad 3rd and 4th generation are 2024x1536

I think we should go bigger, and can always shrink it down.

So your flash file dimensions should be

1536 x 2024 pixels


Naming conventions

The naming convention is split up into simple parts: what page it is, what kind of symbol it is, and what role it plays on the page.

So a button on page one would look like: 01btn-play02

Here is a table for how it will work



Page #
Symbol type
Role
Number (not always applicable)
Button
0 1
btn
Play, next, etc.
0 1
Graphic
0 2
gr
anim
0 2
Movie Clip
0 3
mc
txt
0 3






bg








fun
(extra stuff)

There is a dash between the symbol type and the role.
A movie clip on page two that was the animation would look like this:

02mc-anim01

You might have to use a graphic within that movie clip. It would look like this:

02gr-anim01

Keep is simple and clean and straightforward.
All animation and text should be movie clips

If and when we get to extra stuff, those will all be buttons.

All backgrounds will be graphics split up into 3 layers: foreground, middle ground, background.
