7.05 Flash exercises

I focused on Sound (chapter 13) and forms (chapter 14) in week 7 posting them at Week 7 exercises.

Note the page and its contents are quite large. Also don't have your volume up too loud as it starts playing almost immediately. pressing the stop button on the second example (top right) will stop the background music.

There are some interesting sound effects. Found the synchronisation exercise quite fiddly - trying to match lengths of animation to soundtrack and vie-versa. Also had problems with the music selector and need to re-visit this at some point - buttons are in a bit of a mess due to playing around with them. Tutorial invites you to break them apart to allow the text to be coloured when the music is playing - this tends to throw the positioning ig you're not careful. However it does show how you can use a series of buttons to play a soundtrack.

The forms and components chapter was okay but not very useful - may explore this further through other material.Would have liked more material on this showing how it can be used for Q & A type exercises.
