Global Navigation for Flash: version 2.15 released
December 4, 2010 by: ChristianHi all. Just another update of the global navigation. A few bugfixes, some improvements, nothing exciting. Have a look at the changelog for more details. You can download it the global navigation here.
And something completely different: For those of you who sent me an email on saturday 3 december 2010, please send it again, my harddisc crashed and I have lost some mails… 
Hi there, thx for wonderfull class!
Just one question: How would I go about having two navigations with the gaiaframework? I kind of got it to work but I get some nasty errors that I think has to do with the onAfterGoto() thingy on setupNavig function… any simple exemple would help…. Thx again!
Hi Robson. Are you sure you need 2 separate navigations? Can you mail me link to your project, so I can have a look?
Thx for the reply man.
Maybe I dont need the 2 of them. What I want to do is have some of the btns aligned diferently than others relative to te stage…
Ex. a main menu to the LEFT and a smaler menu to the RIGHT.
The way I went about aligning them was trough getBtnsContainer()… So I needed 2 getBtnsContainer() to align each…
I’m at work right now and my project is at home, I’ll try to send you later. Again Thank-you for your help =)
Any thoghts on relative alignment of buttons?
I will set up an example FLA, hopefully within the next week. In the meantime, you can play around with “getSiblings”, http://www.turtlebite.com/docs/global-navigation2-public-methods#getsiblings. I think all you have to do is re-parenting the buttons. The need to be taken out of the btnsContainer and put in a separate container. I’ve wanted to create an example for some time, and now, that you are the second person asking about this feature, I will definitly take care of it. Stay tuned!
Thanks again for the reply. I’ll look at the getSiblings see what I can do whith it, and I’ll be looking foward to that exemple, thx one more time, cheers =)
Just some feedback. My experience with the getSiblings did not go well. Still got erros. I think it’s because I want to have the other menu with a diferent layout (hirizontal) then the main menu, so in xml I put them in dummy node… well it didn’t work out. So I went back to the 2 menu solution and now I got it working with no errors, but I had to take out the:
Gaia.api.afterGoto(onAfterGoto);
Gaia.api.afterComplete(onAfterGoto, true);
thouse were what was givin me errors… What are they for anyway?
Just so you know I made duplicated of all the functions on your exemple, one for each menu I needed, and it worked =) But I dont think it’s the proper way to do it… there’s probably a cleaner way but I already way behind schedule on my project, got to move on.. Still wating on the example, thx…
