| - | ====== Creating Flash Tutorials using Wink ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The flash tutorials in the Ca3DE Wiki have been created using the [[http://www.debugmode.com/wink/|DebugMode Wink]] software by Satish Kumar. Wink is freely available and works very well. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Wink is an excellent tool for creating flash tutorials especially for the Ca3DE World Editor "CaWE". This pages lists tips and tricks about using Wink with CaWE, as well as some guidelines that are intended to achieve consistent impression and design across all Ca3DE-related tutorials, even if the tutorials have been made by different people. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * There are user forums for the Wink software at http://www.debugmode.com/userforums/ \\ Please make sure that you read the [[http://www.debugmode.com/userforums/viewtopic.php?t=3284|Wink FAQs]] and the [[http://www.debugmode.com/userforums/viewtopic.php?t=3283|Tips & Tricks]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Wink FAQ #4 is important: You may want to press the ''PAUSE'' key manually while auto-capturing screenshots whenever CaWE updated the screen slowly. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Tip #6 about resizing the target window is important, too: Use the program [[http://www.brianapps.net/sizer.html|Sizer]] to resize the CaWE main window to 960*720 pixels before capturing screenshots for any tutorial. The main window size of 960*720 maintains the proper aspect ratio while it ensures that the finished presentations can properly be viewed even on screens of 1024*768 pixels display resolution. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * For consistency, prefer the default __yellow__ text boxes that are built into Wink in several flavours, and the default __green__ navigation buttons and preloader and control bars that come with Wink. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * If you've made a new tutorial that you want to upload to this Wiki, please send me the finished ''.wnk'' file per email (or FTP), because uploading and properly linking the relevant files (''.htm'' and ''.swf'') is unfortunately not possible through the Wikis usual media center. | ||
