Add screens to a document

You can add a default-type screen or select a screen type at the same level as the currently selected screen. The new screen is a sibling screen of the selected screen. You can also add a nested screen one level below the currently selected screen. To view all screens in a document, use the Screen Outline pane.

When you add screens to a document, Flash exhibits the following default behaviors:

  • Uses the screen type of the document (slide type for a Slide Presentation or form type for a Form Application) for the new screen. To select to insert a screen of another type, use the Insert Screen Type command in the Screens context menu.

  • Inserts the first screen you add directly after the top-level screen, one level below it.

  • Inserts a screen after the currently selected screen, at the same level. If the document contains nested screens below the currently selected screen, the new screen is added after the nested screens, at the same level as the selected screen.

  • Flash inserts a nested screen directly after the currently selected screen, and nested one level down. If the document contains a nested screen or screens below the currently selected screen, the new screen is added after all nested screens already in place, one level below the selected screen.
