How can we make images links in LRF?

JSWolf · 02-02-2008, 12:25 PM

I just found this and it contains LRS code to use images as links. It also contains the compiled LRF code.

When I've tried to decompile it with lrf2lrs it crashes and lrs2lrf crashes compiling the code. Yet it runs fine on my 505.

kovidgoyal is there something new in this code or is it something we;ve just never known about?

Couple of interesting features. Use of templates for vertical vs. horizontal layout and the BaseButton and FocusIn button. It's all there in the LRS spec

So how can we the ordinary user generate such code and then turn it into LRF?

At the moment he cant

So from what I gather, BBeB is more powerful then what we are able to currently do with it right?

Yeah much more powerful. It actually defines a vector drawing language with primitives like line, circle, etc.

Is there any software out there be it free or commercial that takes advantage of BBeB?

kovidgoyal · 02-03-2008, 06:51 PM

Not that I know of. Presumably SONY's BBeB genration software does, but I think they only make that available to publishers.

EDIT: I should add that enabling support for image buttons on lrs2lrf aand lrf2lrs should be pretty easy. I just have too many things on my plate to do it.

So if I put in a ticket, would you eventually get to it when you have time?

It would be nice to be able to use graphics as links in html2lrf.

Sure open a ticket, but this is going to be way down on my priority list.
