If you’ve ever used traditional screen recording software to create product demo movies or created custom demos on your own with Director or Flash, you know what an enormous task it can become. Not so with the patent-pending technology in Macromedia RoboDemo! By capturing your actions as you use a program, RoboDemo eliminates the need to create custom graphics for each step – which in turns means no massive video files at the end of the project. Veteran author Tom Green understands that this is big news for anyone creating online training, product demos, or user support systems – which is why in these pages he provides a superquick start for a superquick tool! After introducing you to the RoboDemo work environment, Tom uses simple task-based instructions and loads of visual aids to help you progress through chapters on creating and modifying RoboDemo movies; using frames; adding objects, captions, audio, interactivity, and rich media; using PowerPoint in RoboDemo; using RoboDemo movies in Macromedia Breeze; RoboDemo and Flash MX 2004; and more.
