Import media

In addition to creating high-quality text and graphics in Flash, you can import a variety of media types into your movie. For the kite shop, you want a sound to play when the user clicks the Fly It! button. To associate a sound with your button, you will first import an MP3 sound file. By using this compressed sound format, you're ensuring that the sound does not significantly increase the size of your movie.

1 Choose File > Import.
2 If you're using a Windows operating system, in the Import dialog box, browse to Tutorial/My_kite within your Flash application folder, and double-click wizz.mp3.
If you're using a Macintosh operating system, browse to Tutorial/My_kite within your Flash application folder. Double-click wizz.mp3f, then click Import.
The sound file appears in the Library window. To hear the sound, select it and click the Play button in the Library window.
