Hi all!

I'm interested in coming up with a flipbook which turn to another page, with a "turn page" animation. Exacly like what they did for Fullerton, at this URL:-

http://www.fullertonhotel.com/ebrochure/fc/xbookpop.htm

I posted this on the Flash MX forum, and I got a great reply from JCS (thanx again dude!), who passed me a fla where they came out with a flip book, but you'll have to manually drag the page frm one page to another. Technically this flip book is more superior, as the user can flip the book manually, and it looks very very cool, but the thing is, there doens't seem to be a way to flip all the way to the last page withouth going through all the pages in between, and that sucks, as imagine that the document has like 50 pages!. BTW, the file in JCS sent can be downloaded here:-

So basically, I want to modify the script to enable the the page to turn automatically when clicked, instead of having to drag the page. AS Guru's please help!

I actually got a hold of the company who created this.
They said they would create it for me for a price. But I would
rather know how to do it myself. I wish someone knew.....

Well, I don't have flash at work so I can't look at the fla. But I will attempt a guess! Whatever AS is associated with the dragging function could probably be applied to a on Release command for a button. So that when the little triangle button is pressed it "drags" it for you.

As for the sectionals, well, just have it load the correct movie when the tab is clicked. If stuff is on frames then just have it jump to the frame. I.e. if there are 50 pages and you have 50 frames then section one could be pp. 1-10 (frames 1-10), section 2 pp. 11-25 (frames 11-25), etc. Then when you click the tab for, say, section2 then it's just gotoAndPlay(11) or whatever and then makes use of the nextframe() command.

Again this is just a shot in the dark but it might give you some leads!

I've actually been working on that for my client, its really buggy right now and doesn't work quite right...but i'm hoping to have it fixed and ready to go sometime today. When I do I can let both of you know how I did it?

Thats the same file that yyzz linked to in the original post. We'd all like the pages to flip automatically, not with mouse actions :-P
