The Score displays the state of all the elements in your movie over time. Choose Windows Score to open the Score. When you create a new sprite, Director places the sprite's image on the Stage and display information about when the sprite appears in the Score. Sprites appear in the Score as bars extending across all the frames in which the sprite appears. The numbers across the top of the Scores show the number of each frame.
Frames represent a single step in the movie, like the frames in a traditional film.
You set the playback speed of a movie by specifying the number of frames to be displayed per second. The playback head moves through the Score to show what frame is currently displayed on the Stage. The Playback Head moves to any frame you click in the Score. When you click a sprite to select it, a small image of the sprite's cast member appears in the upper left corner of the Score. Information such as the size and location, and start and end frame of the selected sprite appears to the right.
