Brochure Open Engine
Posted on 01. Oct, 2009 by Michele in Code, Flash
This is one of the earlier items we uploaded to Flashden, but it has proved to be reasonabily popular, so I thought I would highlight it. It is a pretty nifty little flash movie, that is kinda like the evil flash flipping book. I hate flipping books, although it does work in places, for example on the www.Blurb.com site.
What I like about this is that you can have more of a brochure instead of a magazine / book as a lot of the time one tends to create brochures more and also it is a bit more unique. Andrew coded this in ActionScript 3 and since he knows far more than I do about the subject I will not go into the technical aspects of it.
In summary this is what it does:
Brochure Open Engine uses 6 images in the library to create an interactive animated brochure opening, flipping over, and closing.The images can be easily replaced (provided the symbols are kept centered). File size is dependent on the size of the images used. All symbols are editable in the Library. Size is fixed based on the required area to display the full brochure, user can adjust as needed.
If you like the sounds of it have a look on Flashden, and even better you can always buy it!
