Can I create an interactive page w/ CS4?

I have Creative Suite 4 Design Premium and am currently learning via Lynda.com and using the programs - I have fair to pretty good knowledge of all of them but Flash. I've been asked to create a 3d interactive page for a friend, in which the viewer clicks on objects within a room and they move and open up other pages. Perhaps the viewer could click on a book within a shelf and the book would slide out and open up.
I know I can learn fast, but I'm beginning to wonder if I have the tools to do this project. My computer does not have the proper video card to make 3d objects in photoshop.
My friend showed me http://www.jimcarrey.com/. I'm pretty sure he's not looking for me to do something quite as ellaborate - I hope not. I'm looking at something more like http://www.chrisvanallsburg.com/home.html. Can I do that much, sketching 2d objects in illustrator and/or photoshop, perhaps giving them something of a 3d feel, then making them move with flash?
Or should I tell my friend right now that I can't help him?
I'd really appreciate some good advice. If you know of other tutorials than the ones I'm using, that would be a great bonus.
Thanks.

I've used Max 2012 and Flare3D and it was pretty simple. It came with a plugin for Max to convert objects over to f3d objects. The 'name' of the object in 3dsmax became the reference name inside Flash. I could easily reference any object I imported into a Flare3D Flash scene, move it, rotate, etc. I have no reason to believe you couldn't do the same with Away3D although I haven't tried it (I'm happy with Flare).
The complexity of the object, vertex count and material application really come into play here. Anything with complicated shader based materials may need to be entirely re-skinned using framework compatible materials before importing into Flash.

  • How can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    how can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    Good morning graywright,
    It sounds as if what you are wanting to do in the Pages application is to insert a Page Break. Follow the steps in this article -
    Pages '09: Inserting a Page Break
    In a word processing document, click where you want the break to occur, and then choose Insert > Page Break. 
    To remove a page break, click at the beginning of the line that follows the break and press the Delete key.
    In a page layout document, to insert a new page in your document, click Pages in the toolbar and choose from the template page options available.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    Muse uses Fixed width Layouts so that is not 100% possible. You can extend images and box elements to full width but not actual content.

    Can I create a blog page in Dreamweaver?

    Yes and no.
    You could create the design you ultimately use for third party blogging software, like a Wordpress theme, in DW, but there's nothing built into DW that can create a blog in and of itself for you, no.

  • How can you create a customized page to change user password?

    Hello to all,
    I would like to create a customized page for a user to change their password. We are using Portal version 3.0.9 on Windows NT/2000. Currently there is a page in portal where a user can change their password.
    I tried linking to that page by copying the shortcut url and adding it as an html portlet. The problem is that we want to direct the users to a
    page of our choosing when they click on the "cancel" and "ok" buttons. I read in the forums that there is a selfreg.cmd script.
    I also read that there is some code that has been available.
    Has anyone implemented a customized user password change page? Do you know of any links that might have steps to follow or
    more informatioin?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lindsay

    Hope this helps.
    I've customized the login page too if you would like some sample code for that. Let me know.

  • Can I create a Desktop page on the wiki ?

    Hi there,
    I was using Arch since 1 or 2 weeks now, and I am still in the 'tune the system to get a working desktop' phase.
    On the way, I took extensive notes about everything I installed and set-up.
    So I was thinking about creating a wiki page (that could be named something like : "Desktop Arch : Zero2Heaven") that list every step to get a working desktop configuration.
    The idea is to provide a guide to set up a workstation easily for a non-guru arch new user like me.
    Before doing anything, I just wanted to be sure creating this kind of page isn't against some wiki protocol (I don't think so but better safe than sorry ).
    See you around

    That's why OP's personal preferences should go to his user page and not as a regular article.
    I've seen wiki user pages that listed some configs that their authors found useful, nothing wrong with that.
    I think there is something missing in the documentation / wiki : How to mount 'quickly' a usable desktop configuration.
    The idea was to hook false beginner / 'young' intermediate Linux user, that want to give Arch a try, but don't have the knowledge/experience to sort all the info available in the wiki to install a desktop config.
    IMO this could help expand the user base.
    Tereva
    PS :  I was going for LXDE + java + audio/video codex + usb auto-mounting + some fonts...
    Of course I don't pretend this is THE ultimate desktop experience (everyone has his own preferences).
    But at least by following the guide I was thinking about, someone can have a -fast- usable desktop in 10 / 15 min.

  • Can not create template based page with customized page type.

    I built a customized page type (with persepective attribute) and wanted to build pages with this type. If the new pages do not based on any template, it works fine. However, if I wanted to use a template, the page type was set back to "standard"!
    Steps to reproduce it:
    1. create a new page type - test page type.
    2. create a new template = test template.
    3. create a new page - test page.
    3.1 choose the page type to be "test page type"
    3.2 fill in the form including the new attribute info.
    3.2 choose the page template to be 'test template"
    3.3 click finish
    4. click the properties of "test page", it shows that the page type is "standard" and the new attribute information is gone!
    If in step 3.2, no template is chosen, the properties of the new page shows the page type is "test page type".
    I tried to find a workaround.
    1. create a page with "test page type".
    2. covert the new page to template.
    I got this error message:
    Error while copying page. (WWC-44262)
    (WWC-00000)
    Looks like customized page type and template can not coexist. Is this a bug?

    How long should the upgrade take? And should it be attempted on a production (infrastructure on machine 1/middle-tier on machine 2) Windows 2000 architecture? Or should be wait for 9.0.4? Or ... should I ask this in a TAR? Thanks!

  • How can you create a multi-page pdf document in photoshop elements 13?

    I previously had pse 11 and was able to create multi-page documents as pse files. However, pse 13 does not allow. How can I create multi-page pdf files from pse 13?

    Alas, for one of those mysterious adobe reasons, it's gone in recent versions. Only multipage file you can make is a photobook.

  • Can I create an interactive PDF without distributing it?

    Hi guys,
    I am very new to this and I have been asked by the development team here at work to play around and create a form. The idea behind this is that we want to be able to create an interactive PDF form that can be saved without uploading it to anywhere by one of our users (as they may not have access to the internet when they are filling out the form). At a later stage the user will need to upload the PDF into our system which will read the form's content and upload that data to the database. Our system is a Java web based back office system.
    Likewise - we will also need to pre-populate data into the form if it is present in our database when the form is downloaded for use.
    So I am basically looking for some way to change the security settings on the PDF. I know it is possible but I cannot see how to do it and I cannot find any help on how to do it and it's driving me completely insane!

    Hi,
    You can do this in LC Designer, but I strongly recommend that you have a look at our summary of restrictions depending on how you deploy your form:
    It is available here: https://acrobat.com/#d=3lGJZAZuOmk8h86HCWyJKg and here: http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Using_LiveCycle_Forms_in_Acrobat_and_Reader-16518.html
    You can send out a form, but if the users have Reader they will not be able to save data that they fill in. They will be able to submit the data, but only as xml.
    If you reader enable the form to allow users with Reader to save data, then data connections is turned off.
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • Can documents created/modified in Pages and Numbers be transferred to Dropbox without having to email them?

    How can transfer documents created/modified in Pages and Numbers to Dropbox other than emailing them?

    If you are working within your own network, there are apps that allow this. One that seems to work well for me is called Fingerprint - it allows you to access non-AirPrint printers on your network, save to Dropbox, open a document directly on your Mac and save to iPhoto or Evernote:

  • How can I create an interactive form in Captivate 5?

    Hello...
    I'm creating a Captivate project for an elearning course that will be posted to an LMS.  I'd like to create an "Action Plan" at the end where users can click various actions they want (from a list) and then print that page to use as a take-away reference.  Is this possible in Captivate 5?  Are there other programs that could create this function and then be dropped into Captivate?  I don't need to track the results, just have the interaction on the page.
    Appreciate any help y'all can give!
    Lisa

    Hmmmm...I don't have any screen shots yet....it's in the planning stages.  But, think of it like a grocery list.  You would have a list of items already identified and each would have a checkbox or something next to it.  You could go down the list and click next to each item you want to purchase on your next grocery visit.  You would then be able to print a screen copy of the list showing the items you checked (unchecked items could still appear on the print copy as long as you could clearly see your chosen items).
    Hope that helps!  Thanks for inquiring...
