Hi...

I´m looking for a class for making page turn (flip page) effect for Actionscript 3 .fla project. I have found a few quite nice ones but I can´t find a way to implement to my project.. most of them requires that pages of flipped book or magazine should be either separate externally loaded files or movieclips in local library...

In my case pages are keyframes in timeline of externally loaded swf. I have a next/previous page buttons, and when user clicks them, he/she moves in timeline of that loaded SWF. So I should find a way to make kind of page transition that triggers when user moves from keyframe to another.

Any ideas?

May Actionscript work out. While, no need to stick to that, a lot of time and energy will be taken as well. There is a free online PDF to SWF converter http://www.axmag.com/submit.html, you can simply try this.

I agree with that,making page flip by some online solution is much more simple. And thank you for the nice share.

Those online solutions are useless for me. I have SWF files already made and I just need a way to create page turn effect to them. I do not want to use PDF as a source, because that way you will lose all the interactivity that you have done in InDesign. And that´s pretty much the most important thing for me there.

nothing is impossible, pageflip effect is a hard task, but it can be done.. various people created such effects, it's just a matter of taking the time and understanding the process.

Why not to rethink you architecture and accommodate their way of flipping pages using library symbols?

It´s very hard to do.. swf files are part of bigger system, they come from AIR application that converts PDFs to SWF files... same system uses also SWFs exported from indesign cs4, so it would be very big job to create totally different structure for swfs generated from PDF files...

OK.

You probably realize that in order to achieve this effect you need an access to objects BitmapData and there is no way around it if things are supposed to be done in AS3.
