hi folks,
i'm in one of those cases where swftools gets me *really* close to a solution,
but i have some unusual requirements that interfere. It's entirely possible
that what i need isn't really possible, but you guys have already demonstrated
some things with swftools that I wouldn't have thought possible, so i'm putting
this out there. If a solution could be provided by customizing the source of
swftools, i'm willing to pay someone to do that, assuming it doesn't exceed my
budget.
Here's the situation: I have several PDF books that i'm turning into SWFs. They
are children's books, so for the most part, there's a full-page graphic with a
couple of text fields on top of it. I need to produce one swf per page, which i
know i can do, but I also need all the *text* on the page to be placed into a
named movieclip. I need the ability at runtime to toggle the visibility of the
text.
Unfortunately, it actually goes even one step further. In the lower left and
right-hand corners there are page numbers. These text instances should *not* be
included in the movieclip that contains the rest of the text on the page. That
is, when i turn off the visibility of the text on the page, we don't want to
hide the page numbers.
I think I can work a solution. It's not very hard.
Tell me if you still interested.
If you can/want donate to SWFTools it will be excellent.
