Following is a list of issues discovered in Quark Interactive Designer™ 1.01.
If you do not have the “Interactive designer.xnt” XTensions® module installed, QuarkXPress® unexpectedly quits when you open a Web layout that uses an Interactive layout.
Note: The “Interactive designer.xnt” XTensions module is installed when you install Quark Interactive Designer.
If you close and re-open a project, in the Event tab of the Interactive palette, the Click up option displays in the User Event drop-down menu even when the selected action is associated with a different User Event. To avoid this issue, choose the User Event that displays in bold from the User Event drop-down menu.
The contents of an SWF file display incorrectly in an SWF object if you perform the following steps:
Assign an Open Project action to an SWF object’s Click up user event, and choose Choose to select an SWF file on your hard drive.
Rename, move, or delete the SWF file on your hard drive.
Choose File > Export > Exporter to Macromedia Flash to export the layout to an SWF file. The Exporter for Macromedia Flash dialog box displays.
Choose a location to save the SWF file, and click Save. An alert displays: “Some disk files for multimedia in this layout are missing or have been modified. Continue?”
Click List Media. The Missing/Modified Pictures and Multimedia dialog box displays.
Select the SWF file in the list, and then click Update. The Select SWF file dialog box displays.
Select the SWF file on your hard drive, and then click Open. The status of the SWF file is changed from Missing to OK.
Click Continue. The layout is exported
To avoid this issue, delete the content of the SWF object.
Mac OS® only: If you export an Interactive layout to a Windows® Projector file on Mac OS, the name of the Projector file does not include the “.exe” file extension. To avoid this issue, add the file extension to the file name.
If you create a Composition Zones™ item in an Interactive layout, and that Composition Zones item contains an SWF file, and you use that Interactive layout in a Web layout, the SWF file may not display in the exported Web layout, depending on which browser is used to view the page.
You can avoid this issue in some browsers by copying any SWF or video files from the “image” folder to the folder containing the exported HTML file and removing any references to the “image” folder from the corresponding <embed> tags in the HTML, (for example, change “<embed src=images\8.swf>” to “<embed src=8.swf">”).
You cannot import an SWF file that was exported from a Presentation layout into Macromedia® Flash®. You can import an SWF file that was exported from a Button layout, but only the first frame will be imported.
Static text that uses a missing font does not display in an exported SWF file. To avoid this issue, replace the missing font with a font that is installed on your computer before you export the project.
