page template bug

Melissa Lind 11 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 years ago 8

When I use the page template, all of the layers are duplicated every time I use it. For example, the fourth time I used it, I had four duplicates of every layer. The duplicate layers come in as white boxes.


Is there any way to erase multiple layers at the same time?

Answer

You can use the multiple selection tool to erase elements.  We could not recreate the issue you are reporting.  You should only load a page template once, if you need to upload it again we recommend deleting your elements first that are in the page template, and then loading the page template.  Otherwise it will duplicate the elements which is not the result you are looking for.

Submenus don't show after a few minutes of navigating the app

Paola Amador 11 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 11 years ago 4
After a few minutes of navigating the app (in progress), the menus appear when I tap on an element but when I tap on a specific category or submenu (any submenu like element name, if visible....) nothing shows up. I am using the ipad. Any idea on how to fix this without having to leave the app, close it, open it again just to have it working for a short period and then presenting the same problem again?

Struggling with Read to Me/Read by Myself

russellshaffer 11 years ago updated 11 years ago 3
In the "design" window of InteractBuilder, I'm trying to create two buttons: one that will access my book with an audio file that reads the story to the reader ("read to me"), and a second that will let the child read the book without the voice-over audio file ("read by myself"). (However, I still want the child to access other sounds in the "read by myself" version.)

Can you please explain to me what interactions and behaviors to use so I can make these options available to my readers? Thank you for your help.

Templates?

Joe Valmonte 11 years ago updated by Inna Komarovsky 11 years ago 4
I heard on one of your webinar videos that templates will be made available? 
Answer

Hi there!
Templates are available as a premium feature. They allow you to copy all of the elements and their action sets from a page onto a page of any of your apps and use that as the basis for the new page. Here's a description of templates on our user guide:

Hope this helps!

Can I go back to frame 1 of an animation?

SeanB 11 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 11 years ago 0
I'd like a frame animation to reset itself after user clicks and runs it. Is this possible?
Answer
At this time you would have to add another frame to the end of your animation which would be the same as the first frame.

counter disappears

SeanB 11 years ago updated by Alin Alexandru Matei 11 years ago 4
Since clearing the cache to fix my book odd things are happening - actions on a text button on page 1 got transferred to an new text element on a new page created after the restore.

Just now my global text counter on page 1 vanished. Not only do I have to recreate it, but I have to update all elements on all pages that use it, because the app removed it's name in all their actions. That's over 2 dozen elements to restore.

Add Reorder Page option

Charmaine Anderson 12 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 12 years ago 0

It would be nice to be able to reorder pages by just dragging them into the order you'd like via the drop down button on the top right of the UI. (Of course one would manually have to change their button actions to ensure they go to the right page, unless you could also make the program smart enough to automatically update the action sets to call the new page after it was shuffled.)

Answer

You can already reorder pages using the page manager.  See the link to our documentation on this topic:

Add multiple pages at once

iceartist 10 years ago updated by Ezra Weinstein (Administrator) 10 years ago 1
Is there any way to add more than one page at a time? I have a 60 page book to build. It takes 6 clicks to add one page. WOW is that annoying.
Answer
Not sure what you are clicking but it's actually 4 clicks and most users would not add 60 pages at once, you would add a page, work on it and then add another page.
