Slideshow Entitlement Banner

I have a universal binary for my DPS app and would like to use the Slideshow Entitlement Banner for my library. I'm having an issue with scaling for both devices since there is no way to upload separate assets per device.
Is my only solution to find a happy ratio of the banner that works on both iPhone and iPad?
Jason

Ok great we have come up with a workaround for the time being.
We are going to use the dpsapps to host our iPad banners and will host our iPhone banners from our current web hosting. However I have uploaded the files to our webserver but it produces no banner. I've inserted the Hello World text at the top and that shows, but no images appear. What am I doing wrong? Is there something i need to comment out in order for me to host the slideshow on my personal server?
we have done some troubleshooting and it seems that it gets stuck at parsing the data.json file. Do you have suggestions on the problem?

Slideshow Entitlement Banner Using the Store Configurator

I want to create a simple banner with two states. One that shows only when you are not logged in and a second that only shows when you are logged in. I used the DPS Configurator and selected Slideshow Entitlement Banner, added two slides, the first with "Hide if entitled to latest issue" checked, and the second with "Hide if not entitled to issue" checked. So far everything is working as expected.
But here is the problem. Our app is using restricted distribution to entitle Group A only to Group A folios and Group be to Group B folios. If I am logged in as Group B the banners display as expected, but if I log in as Group A they do not. The problem is that the latest issue is entitled to Group B, since it was published a minute after the Group a folio.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for the response but this will not work, because if a member of group a signs in they will still see the slide prompting them to sign in as well as the slide saying they are signed in.
Is there any other way to accomplish the same thing?
I wanted to see if I could edit the code so I tried to download the zip file and load the files on our server, but then nothing is being displayed in the banner area.
Again thanks for your help and I appreciate any suggestions that you may have.

Replace "static" Entitlement banner with "slideshow" Entitlement banner in html implementation of default library v3

I'm currently in the process of updating an existing Enterprise DPS App. I'm using the online "DPS Configurator" to create an updated iOS7-style HTML implementation of the default library (v3). I also want to implement the DPS Configurator's Slideshow entitlement banner. Is there any documentation on replacing the static entitlement banner with slideshow entitlement banner for the custom HTML implementation? Or is it one or the other? If I can incorporate both, do I have to manually replace static with slideshow banner in code (via DreamWeaver) or will it replace when I go to App Builder. I should also mention that this isn't a true entitlement App, I'm just using Ivan Mironchuck's article... Adding HTML banners to non-entitlement apps | Adobe Developer Connection "fake out" technique to include an entitlement banner in the first place on existing v1 of our current app. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your quick reply Derek. My follow up question is how is TopGear Magazine achieving the iOS7 look on their library along with what looks like the slideshow Entitlement banner? Am I over-thinking things here? If I simply want the brighter iOS7 look for my library is Viewer v31 like this right out of the box then?

Android slideshow/library banner issue

Hi,
I'm updating my DPS legacy Android app to a native one. I'd like to maintain the offline/online banner mechanism that the legacy app had, so that I could change the online banner whenever I wanted.
There's a way to do that in the Store Configurator, using the Slideshow Entitlement Banner option. But when I'm testing the dev app, after uploading the zip file, the banner does not appear.
When I add a custom library, its banner appears, but there's no option to add the offline/online banner mechanism. Is there another way to add it?
Thanks.

Can you send me your adobe id and password so I can take a look at the folios and how the banner is setup? You can use delu at adobe. Thanks.

Entitlement banner not showing up after upgrade to v32

I had my app built for iPad in version v31 which worked fine . But with recent upgrade to v32 entitlement banner doesn't appear in the library. I am using Third party entitlement service. Nothing has been changed in that server but somehow the entitlement doesn't appear in the app no matter what.

Hi,
We have V32.x apps using either Entitlement banners or iTunes banners, and they do work. This one is using an Entitlement banner:

Entitlement-Banner: How to add Subscribe-Button

Hi all,
I have an Newsstand with Entitlement App where I now am redesigning the Entitlement-Banner. It now should include a 'call-to-action'-button for subsription.
Means, if an user clicks on it, the iOS subscription dialog should be initialized.
Well, I don't really have a clue yet how to proceed on that. Is it correct to handle it like this?
document.getElementById('btn--buy-subscription').addEventListener('click', function() {
if (window.onadobedpscontextloaded) {
adobe.dps.subscription.purchase();
What do I have to load for that? I couldn't get a helpful information on devnet or the API docs… thanks for any help!!

have you referenced AdobeLibraryAPI.js and called adobeDPS.initializationComplete to initialize the API v2?

White background Entitlement banner

Currently when i switch my viewer app from landscape to portrait i get a white background within the entitlement banner.
Is there a way to change the background to transparant or a different color? I tried some things within CSS and such but i keep getting that white section.
It's not a major issue it just doesn't look very slick or professional.

Hi charliedemko,
I had the problem with the offline assets not loading as well, but that seemed to be resolved in version 22 for me. Now the offline banner displays correctly for me.
The problem i have is that that white background is also appearing when you switch from portrait to landscape. You notice it especially if you have a dark or colored banner. As i said it's not really a functionality problem it just looks bad.

Entitlement Banner Problem

In the new version of the viewer builder you can't set a fixed height for the entitlement banner anymore. Does anybody have a working example of an entitlement banner for this new version which can be shared as an example? It seems to me that there is an error concerning the height of this banner. If you start the app the banner in horizontal orientation, switch to portrait mode and back to horizontal, you can see that the height of the horizontal banner space is different.

*up*
I've attached three images to demonstrate the slightly erratic behavior of the entitlement banner.
Picture 1 shows the height of the banner after you've opened the application. Picture 2 shows the banner after you switched to portrait view and picture 3 shwos the banner after you have switched back to horizintal view. Do you notice the different heights of the banner in the images 1 and 3. For demonstration pusposes the html is only a white background.
Is there any way to avoid this error. Or will this error be fixed in the next viewer version?

Slideshow & Ad Banner display

There are a ton of free resources available all over the web for Flash, but I could not find what I was looking for, so this is my contribution to those looking for Slideshow or Ad Banner display with the ability to manually scroll back and forth between images as well as let them auto-scroll.
Some features:
-Displays jpeg, gif and png.
-You can add and remove images simply by modifying an XML file (Flash Pro is not required).
-Has small Next and Previous buttons in the bottom right corner.
-Displays "image_number of total_images" in bottom right corner.
-Auto advances to next image after 3 seconds.
-You can specify a unique URL for each image in the XML file. Clicking on the image will open new browser window for that URL.
-Has a nice fading transition going from one image to the next.
I have included the .fla, the .swf and a sample .xml file in the attached file (slideshow.zip)
Hope this is helpful to somebody.

Okay, I have improved my program already...
New Added Features:
-You can now specify in the XML file, whether each pics URL link will open up in a new browser window (_blank) or in the current browser (_self).
-You can also specify in the XML file, how long each pic will display before it auto-switches to the next pic. You can set a different delay for each pic.

How to load and play Flash Slideshow or banner on CS5 Flash player 10.1

The Flash Player 10.1 supports CS5, so the flash slideshow or flash banner designed by CS3 or CS4 can not be loaded or played normally.
To load your flash slideshow into CS5 Flash Player 10.1 or future version, you need to get a Flash Slideshow tool that supports CS Flash Player 10.1.
With such a Flash Slideshow tool ( http://flash.dvd-photo-slideshow.com/demoalbums01.php ) , you can load your flash slideshow into Dreamweaver CS5 and upload it to web directory. After you upload it to internet, it will play well on the CS5 Flash Player 10.1.
Also, if the Flash Slideshow tool will not run normally on your computer if it can not support CS5. To Choose a good Flash Slideshow Software for yourself, you should have a try it on your computer. And you also need to install the CS5 Flash Player 10.1 on your PC at first.

In addition I also can not get html5 video to play in the adobe air app. Would this issue be tied to the above?

DPS Configurator Behavior??

Hello all,
I created a slideshow Entitlement Banner using the configurator and something I noticed in testing the developer .ipa is when it first loads the app is flashes the banner once and then appears again, is this normal behavior? Just curious... Thanks,

Hi Saul,
if you are using DPS Configurator to generate a slideshow entitlement banner, the assets you have in the zip file you download and then use in App Builder would only show up when the device is offline.
If the device is connected, you need to use the Banner Page URL field.
When in DPS Configurator, make sure you 'publish' your assets and then simply use the hosting URL that is provided.
Hope that helps.

Free subscription now is Newsstand enabled mandatory?

Sorry i'm building a Free app with iTunes subscription but i see that on iTunes Connect the feature Newsstand "ON" is mandatory!
Please can i have a confirm?
Yes, i need a iTunes Free App and Free Subscription without Newsstand feature!
NB: please see the attach! Free Subscription need Newsstand "ON"?

You have several options. It sounds like you like the subscription tile that appears at the top of the library. It isn't necessary to create a subscription app to add a banner to your library. You have several options. One option is to create a custom library. Another option is to create an entitlement banner. The entitlement banner is most often used with apps that offer direct entitlement, but you can add a banner without setting up an entitlement server.
For more information about your various options--including the entitlement banner, read this article:

Can I create iWeb hyperlinks from individual slides in slideshow?

I have made a slideshow in iPhoto and dragged it onto my iWeb homepage. I now want to make links between each individual slide and one of my pages. Is this possible. When I click the link icon in the inspector the slides on the slideshow will not highlight to allow links to be made. Is there another way to do this?Thanks.

I don't know about the iWeb slideshow as I don't use it but there are lots of choices for a banner/slideshow that will do what you want...

The JQuery Anything slider will do a lot more than most. You can add text, links and movies as slides...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Banner-Slideshow/Anything-JQuery-Slider.html
I haven't seen anybody do that with the iWeb slideshow - yet!
Wow, Nivo and Galleria, shown on subsequent pages, can all be adapted to use hyperlinks.

Adding Slideshow to iWeb page

I am trying to add a slideshow to my homepage on iWeb? I need it to automatically start scrolling when the page is opened. I have no idea about what software, if any, that I can use. PLEASE HELP!

What you are referring to is a banner rather than a slideshow.
The first part of the bannner and slideshow section of iWeb for Musicians shows various banners....

This is an example with captions and hyperlinks to other pages...

Banner Height at Viewer Builder

At V20 Viewer Builder,
Banner Hight is set 0 ~ 0.375 (the percentage of device's hight occupied by the banner when displayed in the library view. Valid value is between 0 and 0.375).
What is the library view size?
V19 Viewer Builder, I set Banner Hight 180px (switch images for horizontal/vertical by CSS),
so I set 0.23 at V20 Viewer Builder, on horizontal viewer it works good, but on vertical view it doesn't.
Do I have to create html bunner for V20 Viewer Builder ?
shimoawazu

Steve,
>
> In the new viewer builder, the banner no longer asks for a fixed height in pixels for the entitlement banner. Now it asks for a number from 0 to .375 that represents a percentage of the screen height. Unfortunately, it appears that this setting causes the banner to display at different sizes based on the device orientation.
>
> When I choose "0.136" as the percentage height, our banner looks fine in portrait mode but it's cut off in landscape, as 13.6% is a different number of pixels for each orientation. This is going to require us to create new banners for our applications as well as code around orientation change events.
>
> Worse yet, when I rotate from landscape to portrait, then back to landscape, the banner height stays at the portrait setting. (see screenshot) I'm not sure how I'm supposed to create a banner under these circumstances if the device isn't going to shrink the banner back down.
>
> Help!
The percentages will be different amounts based on the orientation, which would be problematic unless the banner can account for this, if I understand correctly. There was also another bug on top of this.
