Re: [aperi-dev] Two Birds w/one email: Report Viewer/Manager UI Walk-Through
|
I should edit better...
I meant:
Bird 1: Try ViewletBuilder (or equiv)
to create flash demos: worked pretty good, much much much easier to use
than PowerPoint for animated demos.
That's rather different isn't it?

Viewer/Manager UI Walk-Through |

Howdy All,
At today's Aperi design meeting we were discussing additional documentation
that might be produced in support of Aperi users and developers.
I suggested producing some animated demos showing how to install and initially
configure the product.
Recently, I produced a narrated power point slide show for the Report Viewer/Manager
UI design. This was pretty good, but had a lot of Microsoftish drawbacks
(bloated, requires M$ products to view, etc).
Craig L. suggested I try ViewletBuilder from Qarbon to build a flash demo.
So, coincidentally ...
I just finished coding the new UI for the Aperi Report Viewer/Manager and
wanted to show folks how it turned out, but its not quite ready for checkin
and general use (IP issues and technical complications w/app servers).
I used ViewletBuilder to put together a narrated flash animation walk-through
of the new UI and I have placed it in the wiki.
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Aperi/architecture#R3_Designs
The backend is still mostly stubbed out, but the primary functions (report
viewing and uploading) work and are demonstrated.
Bird 1: Try ViewletBuilder (or equiv) to create flash demos: worked pretty
good, much much much easier to use the PowerPoint for animated demos.
Bird 2: Get the new UI in front of folk so they can opine upon it: please
take a look, its about 5 mins of video
