video not playing at same time and in front of frame

Ann K AlteredEssence 10 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 10 years ago 1
Hi all,  I could use some help.  I have 3 videos on a page that should run as a button is tapped.  The tap triggers a cover graphic to fade out and to play the videos.  These videos are all on tap but instead only one runs unless the trigger is tapped 3 times. 
ALSO, when the video plays it jumps to the top layer on top of a graphic which is a frame.  The intent is to have a frame with the video playing within it not on top of it.

Hi Ann,
This seems to be a bug, but here's a workaround that can help you achieve the effect you're describing. The three videos are able to play at the same time if they are all chained after another action set. For example, you can start by hiding the button that makes the videos play.

Tap-Hide (Self)
behaviors chained after (all chained under one parent action set):
-PlayVideo (video 1)
-PlayVideo (video 2)
-PlayVideo (video 3)

I couldn't recreate the problem of having a video appear in front of a graphic element. Are you sure the border is layered to be in front of the video?

Contest Entry troubles

Melissa Lind 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 3
A couple comments about things that aren't working quite right on my entries.

1. The TIPS page, I wanted Molly to tap>spin, swipe>throw, drag>move, doubletap>stop spin. But it was interfering with the animation of the box. I changed it to only swipe>throw, drag>move. But the last upload, the swipe throw was not working very well.

2. I was having trouble with any drag>move interactions, but the last one seemed good, I hope yours is too.

3. Menu. It was working a week ago, but now when you click on the thumbnail, it will plays the audio and turns gray, and mostly won't jump to a page. Sometimes it does. Is there any way to chain these behaviors so that they all work together? It works great in the builderplayer, but not on the ipad.

Try to chain the Jump behavior to the PlayAudio behavior and also put a delay on the Jump behavior equal to the audio file.

InteractBuilder 4.0.2 Build 381conversion

Jen Hoyte 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 7
Hello.  Ok so I have 4.0,2 version 381.  Opened an app created in version 3.  Said it was converting it.  When I click Interact, it opens it up in Explorer.
  However, the Page Load action does not work, wherever I click with the mouse, a little white circle shows up, and I cannot type into a text box.  Actually, looks as though no actions work.
Are there any touchups we need to do after the conversion?
Incidentally, I just re-created the first few pages from scratch.  Same thing happens.  Plus when I clickInteract, it just goes to a particular page which is not the first page.
Answer
Inna Komarovsky 10 years ago
Hi Jen,
The white circle is just part of the way the app displays in browsers to signal that you have clicked an area, but the other two problems that you reported shouldn't need touch-ups. Did you have Explorer as your default browser when you tested the app in previous versions of InteractBuilder? We do suggest testing the apps with Google Chrome since InteractBuilder is optimized for this browser. Here are instructions on setting Google Chrome to be your default browser in case you're interested: How to Preview an App.

IB 4.0 | Draw Behavior Not Constrained By Layer

Pardesi Media 10 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago 3
I just converted my existing app created in IB 3.4 to IB 4.0. The draw behavior is only enabled on the background image which is Layer 1, but it draws on higher layers as well (Layer 2-14).

Memory/match game?

Anita Sølver 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 16
How do I make a memory game?

I have checked the forum, user guide and YouTube channel, and though all 3 has some info on the subject, none of it is complete.

The forum has a link to an app that can be downloaded, and I tried that, and got an error while trying to open it in IB.

The user guide has a partially written instruction on how to do it.

The YouTube channel has a video about masking, but it's not really helpful in understanding the basics of how to do it, other than how to use a mask.

So, is there a guide or testapp somewhere, that will work with IB3, or can someone explain how to do it?

Any help will be most welcome :)
Answer
Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago
The difference between match game and a memory game is that on the memory game all the elements are covered, so you will need additional mask/maskoff behaviors for it. I've attached to this post a sample app with two pages: page 1 a match game and page 2 a memory game. Let us know if you have any other questions regarding memory/match game.

Hey there,


I've deleted a page in the middle of a book, then added a new page in the same location. When I try to upload a psd file, I got an error message telling me to restart the software. I am still unable to load the psd file at all.

We are working on a fix for the Photoshop import problem. I assume you are using a Windows computer since it seams to be isolated to Windows.

Fill colour is only working once

halerhys@hotmail com 9 years ago updated 9 years ago 4
Hi, I've just followed the youtube video for the original Colouring book, and it works.. once. I can select a colour, but it only applies to the object to fill it once, whereas in the tutorial video the demonstrator shows the option of selecting and filling ad infinitum..

Is this an unknown problem, or have I missed something out? I don't really want the user to have to keep pressing the 'page refresh' option all the time..

Also, I can't download any of the sample apps in the program.. could you email them to me and give me information on how to install them?

Thanks x

Hi there,
The FillColor problem is a glitch we're working on fixing soon. Regarding the sample apps, they will be going through updates to reflect some improvements to version 4 of InteractBuilder, but if there are any specific effects or apps that you would be interested in seeing, we could put that together for you and email a link to download the app folder.
