SeanB 10 ár síðan updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 ár síðan 2
Just updated 11/8, installed version now says Build 386 as of 10/9/2014 2:12pm. Am I really on the latest?

Anyhoo, having server sync errors, so I created a new test book. As soon as it was created it said "synching" and then threw the following error:

InteractBuilder Version: 4.0 Build 386
Device: iMac
Processor: Intel Core i5

System: 10.10.0

Trouble Syncing with Server

russellshaffer 10 ár síðan updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 ár síðan 5
Is anyone on this forum having trouble syncing with the server when they interact with their app? My app DOES sync, but it takes a REALLY long time. 52 minutes this morning. Then there were a lot of problems with the app that didn't exist when I was using IB3. This incredibly long process makes it extremely tedious and difficult to work on my app in IB4.

Any ideas to streamline this process?
Answer
Have you tried just a single page app to see if there isn't a communication issue going on with our server?

shared apps not accepting username/password

Jen Hoyte 10 ár síðan Uppfært 10 ár síðan 5
I'm developing apps for my algebra class to use.  I've started sharing with 2 people so that they can test them out and give feedback.  On the iPad, they download InteractPlayer, start it up and it prompts for the username/password.  

However, it is not accepting the username/password sent in the email they receive from InteractStudios.  How is this supposed to work now?  Thanks.

problem with mp3 sound clips

Clint Sutton 11 ár síðan updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 ár síðan 1
I am having some problems with using mp3 sound files.  I want to loop a sound to play continuesly without any gaps.  I start with a .wav file that has no gaps at the beginning and end so it plays smoothly when looping in audio softwar.  But when I convert it to mp3, the clip always has a gap at the beginning and the end, so it loops in interactbuilder with a pause!? This seems to be with all mp3 files.  I don't think this is an interactbuilder problem, as my recording software even shows the mp3 file with gaps, no matter how many times I edit it.  Any suggestions would be helpfull please!?


Answer

I believe WAV files will work but not sure they will work on all platforms.  We will do some research on this, but in general MP3 is what we recommend to use. We haven't run into this issue, but at the same time we have not had a need to have music in a loop that does not pause.

Word Highlighting cannot change Highlighting Start

Data Command 10 ár síðan updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 10 ár síðan 2
In come cases when I record word highlighting I cannot edit the starting point.  In the Start Highlighting dialog the starting point is after the ending point and a new starting point cannot be saved.  (see screen capture)Image 211

Not sure how to recreate it, but it either happens because I start tapping before the countdown has finished or after the last word has been spoken.  When this condition exists the words start wapping around to the beginning of the paragraph.

The work around is to delete the word highlighting and to recreate it from scratch.

Copy error in interact mode, then IB3 crashes

Charmaine Anderson 11 ár síðan updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 11 ár síðan 1


When I copy and paste an animation onto the same page and go into interact mode I often receive an application error message and IB3 crashes.  So I can't copy the error message due to the crash. This happens when I have two or three copies of the same animation on the page, although I have given them unique element names.  This occurs intermittently. However when I restart IB3 and go into Interact mode, it seems to work ok. 

Answer

Could you provide as with a small app showing this problem?

Draw Free bug

Charmaine Anderson 11 ár síðan updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 ár síðan 0

When I assign a Drag > Draw Free > line width 15 action to a graphic element, and use my Sony Vaio touch monitor to test it, the lines shoot off on their own accord away from my finger. So it doesn't accurately follow my finger when touching the monitor screen.  I would like this behavior to be more accurate as I want to use to facilitate tracing behavior.  See screenshot below.  If there is a better way to simulate tracing behavior, please advise.  Thanks.

Publish classic tale version & copyright

Luca Paltrinieri 11 ár síðan updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 ár síðan 1
What if I want to create a version of a classic tale (Grimm brothers, Perrault, or maybe even Aesop or Phaedrus)?

How does the copyright work? I suppose that if I am not using texts taken from published books and make my own, I won't face any copyright issue. Am I right?

Thanks
Answer
We are not qualified to answer any questions about legal matters, it is best to consult with an attorney.  There are also plenty of resources on the internet that discuss copyright law.   Our role is to provide a software application that allows anyone to create interactive apps.  The user is responsible to ensure that they are not violating any copyright or other laws.

manage action set order question?

Melissa Lind 11 ár síðan updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 11 ár síðan 1
Is there an example you can give that will help me understand why the order of the action sets is important. At the moment I'm working with a lot of show and hide elements...and I don't know if it would make any difference. What are some examples that would?

Thanks!!! It helps me better understand the capability of the system.

There shouldn't be any difference in the action sets order.

Hide element trouble

Melissa Lind 11 ár síðan updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 ár síðan 5
I want the element to fadeout and in once and then dissapear on page load. The element blinks but does not hide after blinking. Is this correct:

Answer
Try to use a chained behavior rather than the delay before.
