Getting started with as3


i will start from the very basics of learning as3. 
Most of my tutorials will start this way, i know it's extremely basic stuff, but some people might have bought flash and then haven't a clue how to use it!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
Open up flash a menu should appear which looks like this, without the recent items column. 

To create a new flash file just click on "Flash File (Actionscript 3.0), where the arrow is pointing.

This will create exactly what it says, a new as3 flash file.

When you have clicked it, the stage will appear. this is where you will create your flash projects, using the tools on the left hand side. 


i am more interested in the actions panel, which you can bring up by pressing alt+F9.

This is where you can write actionscript, the programming language of flash.
