Creating a PowerPoint Style Presentation in Flash: Pt. 2 Support

This tutorial picks up from Creating a PowerPoint Style Presentation in Flash: Pt.I where we looked at enhancing a presentation created from a template within Flash. In that first tutorial, we started with one of the 'out-of-the-box' presentation templates that comes with Flash and enhanced it with rewind and fast forward buttons, a slide counter and a progress bar to improve the user (and viewer experience).

In this tutorial, we'll work with keyboard shortcuts and save our own presentation template.  We'll also create a kiosk-style presentation that runs automatically using the setInterval action.

This tutorial assumes you understand basic ActionScript commands and are comfortable adding them to movies. Although this tutorial follows on from the first one, this tutorial comes with a complete code download.
