Stage: The stage is the main work area in Animate that is used while creating a project. Videos,
               graphics, buttons, and all other elements can be organised on the Stage. It is a rectangular area
               where we can create drawings or import contents. Default Width and Height of the Stage is 550   400
               pixels.

                 Timeline: The Timeline is a panel at the bottom of the stage. It is divided into frames. We can control
               the timing for the appearance and motion of various graphics and other elements of a project. We
               can use the play head (which is similar to a cursor) to navigate through the project to any desired
               frame across the timeline.
                 Playhead: The frame currently visible  on  the  Stage is indicated  by  the  playhead.  The playhead
               navigates the Timeline from left to right while a document is played.

                 Tools Panel: The Tools panel contains a set of tools to choose from, such as drawing tools, text tools,
               selection tools, etc., which are used to create or modify objects as required in the project.
