Ventuz Forum

Hi all,

The new Layer framework bring a lot of new possibilities but also a lot of conflicts with the way we organised hierarchies in the past.

The example we are face these days is the slidemanager structure vs Ventuz 5 layering.
How to organise layers inside a slide? If I want to have an animated 3D camera and some 2D texts on top of everything on each slide for example.
I can't put it my 2D stuffs on a dedicated layer because I need all this to be consolidated within a slide.

It seems there's no cross layer possibilities.

What is your approach to resolve such a layout?

Regards,

thats a good and importand question, because we used the slidemanager also a lot, and we missed the easy possibilities of that too.

Indeed!

So the short version is: we are working on it.

The long version is: we have a better way of doing what the slide manager does (and more) and are currently working on implementing that better way (in a v5.x release). Making the slide manager work with the new structure is not the ideal way of going about it and won't make anyone happy. We do know that the functionality is important and we know what that functionality needs to be, though.

Cheers,
Erik
