Tutorial: making a Flash Lite SWF animation with objects responding when user press Enter key on his mobile device 

SWF Scout is capable of generating Flash Lite and i-mode compatible flash animations. This includes ActionScript support.

This example will show how to generate Flash Lite compatible flash animation file where sprite object responds to <Enter> key press on a mobile device (or when user press joystik).

Another supported keys in SWF Scout Actionscript compiler are: <Enter>, <Up>, <Down>, <Left>, <Right>, <PageUp>, <PageDown> and other.
