Add Import Sound Element Option to UI

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

I don't see an option to import a sound file on the interface.  Please consider adding an Import Sound file option to the bottom of the UI  under > ADD ELEMENT.  I tried dragging and dropping an .mp3 from my Mac desktop onto the stage but it didn't seem to work. The sound file just jumped back into my desktop folder and no icon appeared on the stage indicating if the file was imported.  Please advise how one can import an .mp3 file.  I also used the Search box in IB3 and typed "Import Sound" and no instruction on this important topic was returned.  Might want to add it as a help topic. Thanks much.

Answer

The "Import" sounds into your app simply choose an audio behavior like "PlayAudio" and it will allow you select an audio file to import.

3.4 - scaling is not working anymore

Ranco 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 7
It used to work wrong (I posted a bug on that) - when you scale to 80% and then back to 100 (= scale 125%). Not it doesn't work at all....

Add On Rollover and on Rollout Action

Charmaine Anderson 11 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 years ago 0

It would be nice to have an On Rollover and On Rollout Action added, so when user uses their finger to rollover or off an element you can assign behaviors such as have an object change color ("light up") or show another element on rollover. I don't see a similar function listed in the Actions panel.  Thanks for considering.

Answer

This can be accomplished using the swipe interaction.

How do I clear the cache in IB4?  I have deleted elements and shapes from my app and they are still showing in InteractPlayer
Answer
The cache is no longer used in IB4, so no need to worry about it :).

Can you type answers in app?

cathy lane 10 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 years ago 1
I am creating an activity page at the end of my book and I would like the children to be able to fill out an activity sheet- Type words into blank spaces. Can you do this in the builder?
They are being asked to write a verse for my book. The following page I am getting them to draw their illustration for their verse- (this you can do I think already in interactbuilder).
This would be great if it could be possible if not now but in the future development of your program. I am wanting to build books so that they can be used as teaching resource in the classroom.

Yes Cathy, you can do  this by using an empty Text element with SetText behavior on the text element as in the attached example:

Page not responding in Interact mode.

Clint Sutton 10 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago 0
Ok guys, got the new 3.4 builder.  Re-installed twice to make sure it was covered.  Besides all the completely different results I am getting in all of my pages with actions and tapping and far too many things to name right now!  I will have to go through each page and work out how to redo most of my interactions!

I am having a strange problem that needs to be fixed first.  On certain pages, not all, when I go to interact mode, the page runs, but I cannot click on anything.  And I mean anything in the Builder, nothing responds, can't go back to Design, can't go anywhere, not even close the builder down.  I have to go into the Task Manager and close the builder that way.

I can send you a page that's giving me trouble, and maybe you can see what's going on.
Answer
Thank you for the sample app Clint , we were able to recreate this problem and we are working on a fix for this bug.

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

Just wanted to say congrats on a great upgrade, noticed a definite improvement on performance (speed) in Interact mode and I'm no longer getting an error message when jumping to other pages.  My Actions seem to be sticking now too!  Yeah!

Answer
