Hi Everyone, I have only posted once or twice before, and feel there is far too many messages from flexcoders to keep up with all the news...maybe there is a better place to try to get help.
But anyway here goes. I have cobbled together my first FLex site. http://www.visual-image.co.uk/visualimg.html and I know there are many issues, the ones I know about and need to look into are evident. first off i need to change the index page back to index or main, as the site isnt getting picked up. I think I will add the collapsable super panel so I can add a few more panels, but it would be nice to get them(or the components/modules) to appear when a navigation button was pressed, but hey I can live without it for now as that seems too deep to get help with at this moment in time. The refresh on certain pages doesn't seem to work properly(maybe a Yahoo hosting issue??), though if i run it on my HD locally its fine. Maybe I should add some kind of code throught the app? Sure I know I should split the app up into components, to get it to run faster, but haven't really got my head round that yet, or how to split it into modules. Maybe the Pano's could be loaded as modules they are stand alone swf's THe Panoramic page, has been a real pain, as at first these Pano's Never worked at all(sandiebox violations), now only some of them do, Some crash Flex when looading, and the positioning is a little hit and miss, Perhaps thats why some people are using Papervision 3D, but at first I thought it was because they also contained some extra code & layers of graphics.. they seem to work on a panel but not in a viewstack. Sometimes i copy one to another page or app with same settings and it doesn't work??? Sure would be nice to organise the images so they zoom on mouse over (or something) But return to the same place, and not push all the other images all over the screen, perhaps they all need to be on seperate layers, then move to front??? I dont know I am sure they could do wonderfull things. Those are my main issues, though I am sure further down the road I may try to get more help, just with those few issues I feel there is a lot to learn. Anyway I thank anyone in advance for any help, in the future I may recieve work that is beyond my skills, I would love to have some people I could work with to develop larger data driven projects. thanks ... johnvid
