I have just completed a proof of concept (of a project on CD) for a client, and need a lot of people to push all kinds of buttons, and let me know if some combo doesn’t work.
Please try to remember the combination of buttons, so I can recreate the error, so I can find the root problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Ok, I will test more later, but right now…
I am supposing the only car you can edit is the SUV? Because that is the only one that works for me. Others show up or say not available yet, but I can’t edit them at all.
Also, when you choose the SUV button again after clicking on another one, the intro text comes in the textbox and replaces the window in there. Is this supposed to happen?
thanks,
yes, the suv is the only one which works (all the rest say not available on demo), and yes on clicking the suv again, you start over again from scratch. It will be that way in the production version as well.

Ok, just making sure these weren’t bugs.
So far so good though, I don’t think I hit anything that didn’t work.
Although: If you use custom art that you can drag around on the cars, is there a way to remove if after you select one just in case you want to change it?
yes, either drag it off of the car, or hit reset button in the menu.
Rev
Nevermind the big black RESET button is RIGHT THERE!!!
LOL… I am blind.
If you choose Custom Graphic in the “Select Hood Image” category there is no reset button.
I’m sure you won’t be the last to ask that question.
This thing goes out on CD to 150 CEO’s, like a rather large office supply co., etc.
meanwhile, I make this one fully operational…

thanks, that is exactly what I needed to know… that category should not be available from that button…
fixed that …
thanks again,
Rev
This is very good.
Ok, I found a bug.
When in the “Select Side Image Position” section if you select one category and choose any image it sets it, but if you choose ANOTHER type of image positioning without hitting reset first it screws up the masks and the old one is still left on there.
Perhaps disabling the buttons except the reset, or maybe just removing the other buttons when one is chosen unless the reset button is pressed.
actually, to quote MS…
we call that a feature…
the client can “build” his wrap, putting a background image over the entire car, then put another image on the windows, etc.
Rev
Ohhhhh, ok then. Sorry, my mistake 
its okay… you haven’t seen the brochure that goes along with the CD…
:beam:
thanks :flower:
I really apreciate the site check… I have to make this into a CD tomorrow…
Rev
Ok, when adding text to the car, you should specify how many characters in the textbox.
You can also limit the amount of characters you can add in an input textbox in the properties panel as well.
Just a suggestion.
Other than what I have stated so far, I can’t find anything wrong with it man. This is truly great, must have taken quite some time. Congrats.
thanks again, I will look at limiting the text box when I do the production version.
It has taken about a hundred hours, over a month’s time…
the final version will have at least 30 categories, and many, many vehicles…
aaarrrrrgh…
Rev
Ohhhh man, I feel so bad for you Rev. You better be getting mucho bucks for this thing.
I’m doing okay on this one. The pay off is the quality of referrals I am hoping to get off of this job…
the client wants to make several versions of this (all Ford’s cars for example), with 1000’s of copies… He also wants to put this as kiosks in 500 auto parts stores across the country (he’s based out of NY)…
could be the big break I have been looking for…
Where’s Phil… I want him to try this out on his dial-up…
Rev
Oh wow, that might bring in some massive business.
As for Phil, I have no clue, but if you are wondering on load time, I am on broadband and sometimes the images took a while to load in the galleries.
the bug in the “Select hood image” category isn’t quite fixed. If you select a category then choose “back to categories” then “custom art” IS available again in the menu.
unless that’s what the bug was and I’ve misunderstood.
