FLASH: Animated Screen Captures?

[Seth Newton]

Hello all,


    I have used flash for a lot of webpages, but now I'm being challenged by

something new.  I'm supposed to find an application that will show our users

the interface to our program, and explain to them with visuals how to

operate it (tutorial).  One of our engineers used a program called

Demoshield, and it could capture his screen movements fairly easily.  It's

been since version 6 that I have used Director, and I don't recall hearing

about any such capabilities then.  Is there any way to do a screen capture

of a mouse's movements with Flash/Director?  And the end result would need

to be web capable.  I have thought of how I could do it in flash....by

simply animating the mouse patterns, and the drop down menus by hand, but if

anyone knows a faster way, advice would be much appreciated.


Thanks in advance,

-Seth.
