Explaindio Open Slide Documentation

Introduction of Explaindio Open Slide Documentation documentation

We have got a number of requests from Flash Developers who want to create new animated slides by themselves and people who want to hire Flash Developer on freelancer website to make their own animated slides.

Therefore we decided to… open the “secret sauce”  documentation about Explaindio Video Creator slide format so now everybody can make their own animated slides for themselves, or to sell them to other Explaindio Video Creator users on our upcoming marketplace or direct.

IMPORTANT: Explaindio Open Slide Documentation is UNSUPPORTED and meant for adobe Flash Developers ONLY.

We provide free support for Explaindio Video Creator users but we CANNOT provide a free support for Developers.

I will try to post answers to frequently asked questions posted in comments but we CANNOT provide free support for flash developers.

Below is the link to document and sample slide source we use when we hire new flash developer to create slides.

WARNING: only about 1/4th of developers we hired where capable of following the described tags and the slide structure. Therefore before you hire developer for whole slide serie ask them to do just one demo slide and test in software if works. It could save you a lot of frustration (or at least could lower it significantly).

I also included 3 example flash source code .fla files so developer can look under the hood. Those 3 source .fla are EXAMPLE ONLY which means you CANNOT use any of code from sample slide for any other purpose than educational.

Click here to download  .zip file with both “Open Slide Documentation” and 3 example slide source code.

If you are not  a flash developer you can hire one here.

Have fun with it
