16. Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7-15 Summary You can use Lingo scripts to display complex animations in response to user actions and to create random movement and other events. You can make many aspects of a sprite’s display responsive to user action. You can make text interactive in a variety of ways, including hypertext systems, in a Shockwave project. With Lingo scripts, you can make sound interactive and responsive to the user. You can also make video interactive with the help of scripting. Shockwave projects can embed Web resources such as text, graphics, and video. Shockwave projects can also link to Web pages and other Web resources. The appearance of the cursor can range widely to help create a more natural and interactive environment. Giving users feedback by including a score-keeping script can enhance your projects.
