HI There.

Currently I have an interactive swf anim ebeded into a powerpoint for particpants to interact with during a conference in adobe connect.

The animation consists of a question with four answers in boxes and a button to reveal the correct answer. The particpants in their own time, can click the button to reveal the correct answer.

I have built the animation in flash and embeding the swf into powerpoint using 'shockwave flash object'. I then upload this powerpoint into adobe conect and share it in the share pod in the adobe connect conference room.

This works reasonably well.

However, many particpants viewing the webinar on a mobile device are unable to view or interact with this animation, due to the flash content.

Is there an alternitive animation thats interactive like above, which can be viewed and interacted with on mobile devices either by embeding into powerpoint or opening up within the adobe connect meeting room.

Or better still is there a way of making the swf compatable with mobile devices including those which wont run flash

Thanks

You could look to use Presenter to create quiz question slides in the PPT deck, and then the Mobile viewers should see them and be able to interact (I think).

The issue with the SWF file is Apple considers that SWF to be a real-time change to the code of the room, and disables it as that is against their policy for apps. So I'm not sure that there is anything you can do differently to your SWF to make it work. Have you tested loading the SWF directly into a share pod, without the PPT? Not sure that that would result in anything different, but worth a try.

Thanks for that

I will look into both methods and see what I can do
