Adding Interactive Components in Flash Catalyst 
In this tutorial, we will finish the portfolio slide-show in Adobe Flash Catalyst. If you have been following along, we have made our buttons and are ready to add the special effects.
Adobe Flash Catalyst
Adobe Flash Catalyst simplifies and enhances the design process, allowing the designer to take the design to the next level by adding the front-end interactive features such as buttons, text input boxes, image transitions and more.
Creat an Animation in Flash Catalyst
We built our website header design file in Photoshop. Now we are ready to import the Photoshop image into Flash Catalyst and create the intro animation.
Flash Catalyst – The Workspace
Open your PortfolioLayout.psd portfolio project file into Catalyst and let's take a look around. At first glance, you will see that the workspace is not as intimidating as the Flash workspace.
Test and Publish Flash Catalyst Animation
We will program and publish our Adobe Flash Catalyst.
Turning Graphics into Buttons in Flash Catalyst
Now that we have imported our portfolio project Photoshop file into Adobe Flash Catalyst, we are ready to work on the navigation for our portfolio. We will build the pages or states for our project and turn our imported graphics into button components in Flash Catalyst.
Working with States in Flash Catalyst
We will use the Catalyst Timeline to control our animated website header.
