Introducing Authorware 7

Macromedia Authorware 7 is the leading rich-media authoring tool for creating web and online learning. Authorware integrates graphics, sound, animation, text, and video into compelling rich-media learning solutions.

Authorware is optimized for building e-learning applications. The Authorware interface provides a fast and easy environment for creating interactive applications. Drag-and-drop icons support rapid application prototyping and development without the need for extensive scripting. The flowline provides an intuitive representation of the structure of large, highly branched learning applications.

Authorware 7 has been updated with a new interface. The new look includes panels that dock on the right side of the application window and a new Property inspector that significantly streamlines workflow.

Scripting in Authorware is now possible in JavaScript as well as Authorware Script Language. The Calculation editor lets you specify either language for entering and running scripts. The Preferences dialog box now lets you specify the appearance of script in both languages.

A major addition to Authorware 7 is XML import and export capability. Not only can you import XML files into Authorware but you can export an entire Authorware piece as XML. For example, you can import a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation as XML into Authorware, and use the PowerPoint slides as the foundation for building an Authorware application.

Authorware now supports DVD. You can set up Authorware to automatically start and stop at specific points within a DVD movie, and give students playback controls to play, pause, or replay movie segments.

Improvements to Trace/Debug include new Stop, Start, and Wait commands to give you more control over debugging.

Authorware 7 also includes support for Mac OS X playback as well as ADL SCORM API Adapter Objects. Additionally, the new Learning Object Packager creates SCORM-compliant learning objects from Authorware files.

Authorware 7 is part of the eLearning studio group of integrated, open, and scalable learning tools and technologies. This system provides a complete e-learning solution, including the creation, delivery, and management of enterprise learning programs.
