-
Start Flash.
-
On the main Flash screen, select Create New >
Flash File (Mobile).
Flash opens Device Central and displays the New Document
tab.
-
In Device Central, select a Player version and ActionScript
version.
The Available Devices list on the left is updated.
Devices that do not support the selected Player version and ActionScript
version are dimmed.
-
Select a content type.
The Available Devices list on the left is updated
and shows the devices that support the content type (as well as
the Player version and ActionScript version) selected.
-
In the Available Devices list, select a single target
device or multiple devices (or select a set or individual device
in the Device Sets list).
Device Central lists proposed document sizes based
on the device or devices you selected (if the devices have different
display sizes). Depending on the design or content you are developing,
you can create a separate mobile document for each display size
or try to find one size appropriate for all devices. When choosing
the second approach, you may want to use the smallest or largest
suggested document size as a common denominator. You can even specify
a custom size at the bottom of the tab.
-
Click Create.
Flash starts up and creates a document with preset
publish settings from Device Central, including the correct size
for the device (or group of devices) specified.
-
Add content to the new Flash document.
-
To test the document, select Control > Test
Movie.
The new document is displayed in the Device Central
Emulator tab. If one or more devices were selected in the Available
Devices list in step 5, a new device set is created (named
according to the FLA file) and listed in the Device Sets panel.
The device shown in the Emulator tab is listed in the Device Sets
panel with a special icon
. To
test the new Flash document on another device, double-click the name
of a different device in the Device Sets or Available Devices lists.
