Controlling Adobe Flash Objects

When you add an Adobe Flash object to a page, or display a page that already contains an Adobe Flash object, the Adobe Flash object plays immediately. You can control the playback of the object. If the Adobe Flash object has buttons, you can press them on the interactive screen. If an Adobe Flash object doesn't have buttons, you can use the options in the object's menu arrow.

NOTE: To write on top of an Adobe Flash object with a handwriting recognition component, start writing outside the object and continue to write over the object. This enables SMART Notebook to recognize the digital ink as a separate object from the Adobe Flash object.

A selection rectangle appears around the object.
