Great work!
Thank you very much!

It would be great, if you could include a help text, presenting all the features and how to use them. For example, the parameters we can define in the changeScene, the debug, the clean function etc. [import]uid: 38658 topic_id: 14338 reply_id: 53014[/import]

In this new books template,
How would I go about putting say a home button in that will
change scenes to re-start the application?
I tried to do this and got a button to show up but it freezes
the entire app and it just sits there when pressed!
I tested it by putting it into the pages.lua where you had the
swipe text:
[lua] ------------------
– Swipe text

local swipeText = display.newImage (“home.png”)
swipeText:setReferencePoint( display.CenterReferencePoint )
swipeText.x = _W / 2
swipeText.y = _H - 75
localGroup:insert( swipeText )
local goRauberLabs = function ( event )
if event.phase == “ended” then
director:changeScene ( “intro” )
end
end
swipeText:addEventListener( “touch”, goRauberLabs )[/lua] [import]uid: 67514 topic_id: 14338 reply_id: 53884[/import]

#13

To use changeScene you have to put this line before:

director:turnToScenes() [import]uid: 8556 topic_id: 14338 reply_id: 53908[/import]

thank you ricardo! worked like a charm :slight_smile:

Hi ricardo,

I am using the new book template. A couple of questions and maybe there is a way to do this easily which i dont see a way to call and flip pages automatically.

i have tried using calling both these functions, but admit I may not understand the flow completely
moveBookPage() and gotopage.

EDIT: also how do i move directly to a specific page?

Also, it would be great to add a swipe from top to bottom for options, or other screens in this template.

Great template, awesome work - Thanks for everything. [import]uid: 55009 topic_id: 14338 reply_id: 54282[/import]

Hi Ricardo!
Question please:
I am using this for a client
but he wants an “auto play” type feature where the images scroll to the next image
with speed settings. is this possible? if so how would i go about that? [import]uid: 67514 topic_id: 14338 reply_id: 54499[/import]
