Everything else seems to be working well, just not the widgets, thanks. Good Morning,

I finally got the elearning suite and I have been trying to play with the widgets, but everytime I try to insert or drag one to the stage, my program crashes, any suggestions, maybe my IT Dept installed my software incorrectly?? Everything else seems to be working well, just not the widgets, thanks.

You would need to have that programmed for your needs specifically unfortunately. /Michael @Keli – to my knowledge there isn’t such a widget available now.

Is there a widget to create a "wrapper" for the flash output? Specifically, we want to display the video in one panel of the frame and have an interactive TOC in the left panel, with duration of section, etc. available. I'm not a programmLooking for something easy to use but professional. Thanks! Hi! Is there a widget to create a “wrapper” for the flash output?

I just got back from vacation so perhaps I missed it but so far I haven't found any. I recommend that you keep an eye on this blog as well as Flas-Factor and Jim Leichliters blog (both links can be found in the footer on this page). /Michael Hi Jerome,

Thank you for taking the time to write about the API. One feature I'm looking forward to is the ability to tap into the events. This framework lends itself well to inter widget communication and async web services. Looking forward to the release of that Twitter widget which would display a great example of both. Jim Leichliter Michael,

I like the fact that you created a presentation to highlight the new widgets functionality. Another aspect I like about the chart widget is that it allows to upload a file directly from the disc.
