Macromedia Flash Format in OpenOffice?

linux-rulz · 01-27-2005, 10:09 PM

I was reading on the main OpenOffice web page that you can use OpenOffice to make Macromedia Flash content. Does anyone know how to do this? If not, does anyone know where to find some good documentation on using this feature?

Anyways, ttyl

You can export a presentation (.sxi) to an .swf file. That's about it.

It's obviously not what "creating Macromedia Flash content" implies.

Well, the tasks I wanted to do with Flash are very simple, and OOo Impress could probably handle them. Well, thanks for the help!

OK, a couple new problems.

First of all, whenever I either export to Flash format or just play the Impress presentation as a normal Slide show, I have to click on it to get it to flip to the next slide. How do I make it flip slides on its own at timed intervals in OOo?

And then, the second problem. How do I add Flash content to an html web page? I don't think Nvu is capable of doing this, but is OpenOffice.org Writer/Web capable of doing this? If not, do you know a not too difficult way to do this?
