Building The Ponderosa Pine

Anthony:

This is definitely a topic concerning Xara X. It is quite a long session chronicling various Xara X techniques. That, in fact, is all it is about. Which URL did not work for you? Did you click on the link in the first post I made? Has anyone else not been able to view this?

I can 2nd that this is 100% xarax topic. It's an excellent tutorial on the use of xara to produce a vector tree. Don't know why the link didn't work for you (maybe you haven't got the latest Flash plug-in?)

Sorry, I thought as it was a Flash display you had created in Flash. ( I see that you used Macromedia RoboDemo) but I assumed it had finally been compiled in Flash. I should be quite simple from within Flash to import each of the files created in RoboDemo to preload on different layers.

Hi AntonyF,

No move this. It is right where it belongs... 300 meg worth of video on xara.

That's cool... just wanted to check, rather than blindly moving, so glad I did. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Greg, well the link worked, and I got like a little into Flash thing... but then nothing else. Maybe it was a popup that I missed, could that be it?

Large large flash movie about +300 meg worth...

Everything went smooth worked for me, except No 7 where I had to type in the link.

This may come as a bit of a shock, but I don't own Flash software. I don't like it. I have tried Swish, (a much simpler, less expensive, yet highly functional program), but don't own that either. It also seems to have trouble with the .swf files that come from my video capture software. So, the gist of it is, these little sessions will have to be delivered a segment at a time for now. But, they're free - that's something.

Oh, I almost forgot, I'll try to fix the broken link between segments 6 and 7, at some point. Those of you with troubles, are you Mac guys? What browsers are you using?

Greg, I don't believe it's an OS or browser issue. The file Pondo6.swf just doesn't have the player or the forwarding instructions embedded into it like the others do.

By the way, GREAT tutorial! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/cool.gif THANK YOU! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
