Creating a Presentation layout

A Presentation layout is an Interactive layout that can be exported in SWF format. To create a Presentation layout:

  1. Create an Interactive layout:
    • If you are creating a Presentation layout as the first layout in a project, choose File > New > Project.
    • If you are creating a Presentation layout as a layout in an existing project, open the project and choose Layout > New.
    • If you want to create a Presentation layout that is based on an existing layout, open that layout and choose Layout > Duplicate.

    The New Project, New Layout, or Duplicate Layout dialog box displays (all are essentially the same).
