When we learn a new program sometimes we want to know how to access its functionality quickly.A keyboard shortcut also known as Hotkey might be the most wanted thing by a new learner. Howeverreading a list of hotkeys could become somewhat cumbersome. In this time we present you a simplepresentation of hotkeys based on Flash.

 

Step 1

Install and Run Flash Demo Builder from here

Step 2

At Startup menu, choose "Blank Project" & click on "OK" button

Step 5

Insert some Text Rollover obejcts on the top of some orange groups of keys as shown below

Please note the cross-like yellow group of keys above. Because Flash Demo Builder doesn't support polygon shape of textroolover object and no keys that can print arrow sign then we put image roolover object on the top of the groups.


For every text rollover object we define all possible combination of keys within the group and the same thing is applied toimage rollover object.

Step 6

Finally you have built your hotkey map presentation.

 

Here is the result:
