Excited! Nearly Finished fmp Last hurdle..
All that is left to do is include the real live data coming in.. which I will need to do by collecting data from each station in the tidal and current data section of the noaa site.
And then I will need to merge this with my final patch file, which will involve adding the sound and background, perhaps a glow to the sphere and make the timeline buttons closer to each other 🙂 exciting!
Figuring out start to end of frames to each button
Love my dual monitors and parent’s laptop ^^

Year Navigation Problem..
With some help I have managed to get the cursor to scroll right & left of the timeline..
However I have worked out that there is 88 year buttons and 2554 animation png frames. Distributing the animation frames evenly to each year works out at 29 frames per year which makes that around 1 second long to each year (button).
As this is not appealing to the user, I have decided to group the years into 6 groups. 15 years to each group. That leaves around 425 frames (around 15 seconds) to each group 🙂
This gives the user the option to click from 6 buttons.
Background Audio Problem
I’ve completed the soundtrack and thanks to an example looping v4 file I’ve found, I have managed to get the soundtrack playing in my project 🙂 YAY
I have listened to the soundtrack to see if it loops with no problems and I have encountered the problem of it not looping properly!
Problem :(
After lots of struggling I’ve finally created the button navigation bar, I fixed my problem of struggling to apply several textures, but I’ve finally done it!
So as I created it on a separate canvas, I copied and pasted the code into the final fmp canvas.
Now the buttons aren’t showing! not at all…
Will figure this out..
