Flash Designer is similar to PowerPoint. Each animation consists of one or more frames. By default the animation starts at the first frame,
and goes from frame to frame until it reaches the end of the animation. Then it starts over.
To set movie sizeThe frame size is defined in pixels. Choose "Frame" > "Frame Size" and enter new width and height.
To set frame durationTo define how long the frame will appear on the screen choose "Frame" > "Frame Delay" command.
To add a new frameChoose "Frame" > "Insert"
