Problem with IB3 3.4 install - My App Assets are not displaying in new version

Charmaine Anderson 10 years ago • updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago • 15
I just downloaded and installed the latest version (342) tonight and when I opened my app I just see a white page and none of my app assets are there, just an empty element is there, and when I click on another page in my app,  I get a Database is Locked error message (see screenshot below).  Please advise how to get my app assets to display properly in this new version.  I did restart my computer and relaunch IB3 but problem still persists. I also tried logging in as someone else and that didn't help either. (I'm using a Mac.)Thank you.

Try restarting you computer, if that didn't work uninstall the builder and install a clean copy of the builder.

Movement > Spin - graphic asset is being enlarged and cropped unintentionally

Charmaine Anderson 11 years ago • updated by Hayley 5 years ago • 5

IB3 enlarges a static graphic set to spin in Interact mode, making part of the asset's image being cropped from view.  It looks like the image is being enlarged by about 20%.

To reproduce, see the app I shared with Alin, Page 5.  Note the static graphic of the dolphins are being enlarged in Interact mode and note their fins are being cropped as the image is spinning.  I set the object spin rate to about 10%.

We were able to recreate this and we are working on a fix.

swatting bugs but happy

SeanB 10 years ago • updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago • 0
I just wanted to add, as I go bug happy crunching for the deadline, that I've been a tester of InteractBuilder since version 1 - I remember tracking element ID numbers! - and the app has definitely come a long way, is much more stable, and is a lot of fun to work with.

I'm already cooking up alternatives to the blocker I just posted, that is the nature of working with any app especially with web technologies.

So good job and keep up the great effort!!

Thank you for your kind words Sean, I've been as frustrated as everyone if not more about all the bugs that have surfaced.  We are working on a new build that should resolve many of the latest reported issues.  As the software expands with more features it becomes more complex to test and QA this massive undertaking.  We are hoping that every release will be a step closer to stabilizing the platform.  Thank you for being a loyal user and supporter!

Put a confim on the CANCEL please

SeanB 10 years ago • updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago • 0
I just accidentally clicked cancel after typing a lengthy blocking bug report. I'm not happy. Please ask whoever manages this form to add a simple little thing called a confirm dialog when you hit cancel and when the form is not empty. Form validation 101. Argh.
Answer
Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago
Sorry this happened Sean.  I will submit a feedback note to our vendor that wrote this software. Overall it's a great tool and we are pretty pleased with it. I can see how frustrated one could get if you hit the cancel button by mistake...

Can I delete these files from my app directory? Not sure what they are....

Charmaine Anderson 11 years ago • updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 years ago • 1

Hi there,

I noticed my app size was showing at 1.29 GB and I know it isn't that large so when I looked in my app folder I noticed a bunch of strange files that are 1.4 MB each and I'm not sure if I can delete them without breaking my app.  Can you please advise what these are and if I can delete them? Are these IB3 necessary files? See screengrab below of file names. Also, FYI when I try to clear my cache, the app throws an error. 


Thanks much.


Charmaine

1.29GB is huge, but keep in mind when you  share or publish the app only the files that are used in the app will be published.  


You can delete those files, they are backup database files.

screenshot permission

Karen Ivers 10 years ago • updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago • 2
I am co-authoring a book with my colleague, Ann Barron. The book is titled: Digital Content Creation in Schools: A Common Core Approach and will be published by Libraries Unlimited, an imprint of ABC-CLIO. The book is designed to help teachers manage and create multimedia projects with their students. In one chapter of the book, we discuss a variety of different development tools. I would like permission to include a screenshot of a self-created sample eBook page created in Interact Builder. Please advise.  Many thanks!
