Welcome screen overview
When Flash is running with no documents open, the Welcome screen appears. The Welcome screen contains the following four areas:
- Open a Recent Item Lets you open your most recent documents (click the Open icon).
- Create New Lists Flash file types, such as Flash documents and ActionScript™ files.
- Create from Template Lists the templates most commonly used to create Flash documents.
- Extend Links to the Flash Exchange website, where you can download helper applications, extensions, and related information.
The Welcome screen also offers quick access to Help resources. You can take a tour of Flash, learn about documentation resources, and find Adobe Authorized Training facilities.
- To hide the Welcome screen, select Don’t Show Again.
- To show the Welcome screen, select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or select Flash > Preferences (Macintosh), and select Show Welcome screen in the General category.
Generally welcome screen is a useful thing. Mostly You will work more than one time on one Flash animation so view of most recent documents will help You speed up creation process.
