bigwave,
I was cruising through some old posts looking for some info
on a totally different topic, and I came across your initial
question from months ago...I'm sending a PM, but for the benefit of
others who may have been attempting to use Flash's built-in
learning components and importing into Powerpoint, I thought I
share the following:
(taken from a previous post)
As you have no doubt already realized, using the Learning
Interaction templates that are available in Flash MX / MX2004 and 8
will not work at all in Presenter content.
The coding methods conflict while playing back within the
Breeze environment and I think it has to do with the _dropTarget
property as part of the interaction's codebase. The _dropTarget
method is
NOT supported in Breeze, but the hitTest() method
IS!
I have written a few drag and drop exercises that do work
within Breeze content, and you have to use the hitTest() method to
accomplish it.
As you already have discovered, the bottom line is that the
learning components were intended to be "stand alone" objects that
could be incorporated into a web page (or even a CD as these
objects are nothing more than swf files). Aside from the fact that
the prebuilt/preconfigured learning objects in flash don't always
work in Breeze, in my mind, the bigger question here is the ability
(or more accurately) the inability to connect these SCO's to an LMS
for tracking. As stand alone objects, they're actually pretty
handy...but not in Breeze.
I realize this doesn't help much with what you're trying to
do, but from my perspective, you're better off creating your own
drag n' drops.
I've got a bunch of examples to share if you'd like to take a
look...just send me a PM or email if you're interested.
