Classes window
The Classes Palette contains the basic classes you will use to build the user interfaces.
It represents the objects you can have in a window. Just drag & drop them into a document window and you are done. You can then modify them there.
All those classes have been developed so they will have the same appearance and behavior on the different browsers you choose to support.
If you are developing multimedia applications you will find the QuickTime class very useful for adding movies or sound to your project.

The Custom palettes can be accessed through the tab in the classes palette ("Global" and "Project"). It will help you to reuse your classes.
Drag an object to either of the palettes and an icon for that object will be created. From then you can drag it to the same or another window and a copy of that object with all its programmed functionality will appear! Objects in the global palette will be available to all projects, the ones in the custom window only to the current project.
You can manage the objects in palettes in many ways.

In the Image palette you will find all the images used in your project.
If you want to reuse it just drag it to the corresponding window and there you have it. You can also add images to an image object by just dragging them into the inspector while the image object is selected. You will find that useful to create rollovers and similar actions.
