Administering projects

Assign an administrator to the project. This individual is responsible for creating and maintaining the project’s structure. For example, documents are divided logically using folders to combine similar files. Typically, several authors work on one Flash project.

The administrator performs the following tasks:

• Confirms changes that are made to the project’s structure, which encourages project stability.

• Defines the site, and creates the Flash project (FLP), main FLA document, and any subdirectories for the project’s assets. These directories might include media, images, or classes that dynamically load into the project.

• Uploads everything to the server.

• Creates a clear structure for the project, and communicates how it works and where to add additional assets (such as class and image files) to everyone who is working on the application.
