The length of the questions is determined simply by the width of the question preview text field.

To edit the length of the question preview field:

  1. Open the ff.fla and/or fastmoney.fla project file in Flash CS3.
  2. In the layers pallette, find “question_preview” on row four and click the layer lock icon to disable it.
  3. Click the layer once to highlight it (when selected, it should be blue).
  4. Scroll down in the stage window to where you see the question preview text field. (The field borders should be light blue).
  5. Click on the field to turn it white with a black border.
  6. Click the middle node at the right end of the field and drag it to the right to lengthen it.
  7. Let go when you’re satisfied.
  8. Click the lock icon in the layers palette to lock the layer.
  9. Save the file.
  10. Click “File/Publish” to create your new projector file.

When you run the new projector file, you’ll see the question previews are now longer.

Note: The maximum number of characters (including spaces) which can be displayed in the ff.fla projector is approximately 107.

In the fastmoney.fla projector, the maximum number of characters is approximately 91 (without moving the buttons).
