  In broad steps;

  • cut up image in PS, import PS file onto stage
  • In Flash,  take each element that you want to animate, make it into a movieclip
  • Inside the movieclip, create classic tween (test that it is playing)
  • inside movieclip, add stop() to make it wait (test that it is stopped)
  • outside of movieclip, in actions layer, add code that makes it play on click.
  • repeat for all interactive elements
