"Now that we have a blank document, let me show you what, what we're looking at here. Up at the top here, we've got a time line. Now we'll get in the, into the time line later on. But if you notice right here your cursor will turn into a bunch of arrows to tell you, you know, you can modify your document. Since right now we just want to focus on the canvas down below, I want to push this up as high as I can, and pull down my canvas.

Because it's going off the page and I need to scroll up and down and I don't want that. So I'll go file, sorry, I'll go modify, document. And right now we can see it's at five hundred and fifty pixels wide, four hundred pixels high. So, normally that's a pretty small document, but because of our screen size, I'm going to go three hundred pixels high, and I'm going to go five hundred pixels wide. And down here it's asking me what is my background color, so I can pick a background color. Right now I will actually want to leave it at white. And it's asking me what my frame rate is. Again, we'll get into animation later, but let's change this to twenty four right now. And it's telling me that my U my Rule is being measured in pixels. So I hit OK.
