InDesign to Interact

West Bolz 10 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago 6
I have a book laid out in InDesign CS4.  I am looking for the most efficient way to transfer the pages, layers, elements, etc. into Interact.  I have not been able to find a way to export the ID files as PSD.

Only one element is allowed to increment a counter. Why no sharing?

SeanB 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 0
I have 3 items, tapping on them should increment a single counter.  I gave up on also checking the state of the counter. I just wanted another button to do that. But now I can't even get a shared counter to increment. Why can't they share the same counter?

All 3 - shoes, shorts, shirt are identically setup in Action Manager. Only one of them works. This makes no sense. It does not matter if I nest the counter actions under single Tap>Move, or move the Tap>Move down, or nest it under the counters.

I tried to recreate this situation but everything worked great.
Here is a sample app for this:

One question: what version and what build number is your InteractBuilder?

consecutive linear animations doesn't work anymore

Ranco 10 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago 2
I have a sequence of linear movements (under Animation behavior), creating a move along a path. It doesn't work anymore. Here's a similar example. Clicking the butterfly should move it through 3 different points.

save the counter value, like save text

g choi 8 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 8 years ago 1

is it possible to save the values of the counters to use when the app is reopened? like the savetext function

Answer
Inna Komarovsky 8 years ago

A counter's value cannot be saved when the app is closed, but depending on the effect you'd like to achieve, you can use SaveText and text element–dependent conditions to affect behaviors in your app.

Publish once and in all app stores?

Adrienne Brown 9 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago 1
Hi,
When I’m ready to publish will my app be published to all the app stores; Apple, Google, Amazon, etc.? Or is only one app store included in the premium membership?
Answer
Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago
You can submit your app to Apple, Google, and Amazon at the same time with the premium membership. In the publishing options, you can specify which app marketplaces the app should be submitted to. Here's an article we put together with more detail about the publishing options: Publishing to the App Store

triggering two animations with one tap

Ann K AlteredEssence 11 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 years ago 0

this occurs while in INTERACT mode tapping on an element that should trigger two animations simultaneously. One animation begins with no problem but then this message is thrown.  i tried it again after clearing cache and rebooting and the same thing occurred.


An application error occurred while attempting to perform the last action.

Restarting InteractBuilder is recommended.

copy paste actions

Melissa Lind 10 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 9 years ago 4

I'm unable to copy and paste an action set back into the same element. It asks me if I want to replace or add and then does nothing. 

Answer

You don't have to copy paste the action sets everytime, if you want to add more targets.You can do that simply by using the green plus sign to the right as shown in the image bellow:
