Creating an interactive magazine with a sidebar menu in Adobe InDesign sounds like a fun project! We at Ceros value tutorials that empower designers to create engaging experiences. Your content is a wonderful guide for that. Keep the creative tutorials coming!
Angelo your videos are so very good and easy to follow. I've followed this video for the interactive sidebar menu and it works flawlessly when I do a Publish Online but I can't get it to work properly when I publish with in5. I've posed this question to them as well but figured I'd cover my bases. I've been back through this and have everything set exactly as you have.
Hi Janice! I can't really help you with the in5 question, as I am not subscribed to the full version of the software. Hopefully they answer your question. Take care!
Hi Angelo, First of all, great video. Here it comes; however, InDesign 19.5 tells me that the interactive elements are not currently supported. What version are you using? Nor, am I getting any optional share methods.
Excellent work. I created a magazine for a client a few years ago but wasn't really aware of the interactive features at the time. I will incorporate them into upcoming projects. I'm looking forward to the next tutorial.
The timestamp you provided doesn't line up with your question. However, Shift + Command + Option + V is a shortcut for Paste in Place. You can achieve the same result by going to Edit > Paste in Place.
New to ePub, I was able to create the nav panel. Because our co. prefers to use Table of Contents method on a master rather than using nav buttons, I cannot animate or create effects on each nav item separately. Instead I've placed a color dot next to each "Active" nav item on its corresponding page which fades in on page load on top of the active nav panel perfectly, but only for the first 2 pages. The dot on remaining pages are buried below the panel and cannot be seen. I had duplicated all nav dots from the first one, placed them "in front" on their pages, renamed the effect. What am I missing?
Hi Angelo, I enjoyed your presentation at the Adobe Max conference and glad I found your TH-cam channel! I'm not sure if you know of a workaround for hiding/eliminating the built-in Next/Previous navigation buttons, but thought I'd check. I have an eLearning dev background and am used to creating customized navigations. Thanks for your input!!
@@AngeloMontilla Thanks for the reply! I'm immersed today in learning all about in5. Trying to determine if this is a good approach for training/education vs elearning tools. There's a lot of overlapping features, though InDesign + in5 seems to provide some additional options for interactive manuals (magazines) that may what a client needs, rather than a full elearning course. Still learning! Thanks again!! 🙂
@@GaiaFlutes Great points. I would say use your own judgment and whether in5 would be beneficial to you. I agree there are some overlapping features but in5 has exporting options InDesign on its own just doesn't offer, yet anyways. Best of luck and thanks for following along!
Hi Angelo, ,Thank you very much for this tutorial. it's amazing and very helpful. One question from me, if we pinch out/in the page to zoom in/out the photos, will the sidebar menu stay in the same size or will it be zoom out/in as well? Is there any way that we can lock the size of the sidebar menu while we pinch out/in the page?
Great tutorial and great video Nice work! However, it appears the In5 Scrolling fames is no longer working correctly. Once loaded it says "Get the Scrolling Frames Panel". I click the button and searched the In5 website but nothing happens now. Maybe they moved this feature under the paid version of the software. Woundering if you know another free way to create a scrolling frame without the use of In5? Thanks!
This is such a great tutorial, I learned so much from it. One thing though, when I installed the In5 plugin it said I needed to install the scrolling frames panel separately - but the button in the pop up doesn't work. Any ideas?
Yes, in order to get the Scrolling Frames, you have to download it separately. Sign up for their newsletter, and they'll send the plugin: ajarproductions.com/scroll/?ref=blog
Hi, thank you for the lesson 😊. Can you please show me how to get rid of the error #503F i find online what i need to do and i did all of that and it's not working at all. I mean i can make it in jpg format but that I can't use 😅 well anything. Epub won't won't either. When i open the file on my browser the browser it's downloading the same file wtf? Can you please give me the link to see how's this suppose to work.
Thank you for your tutorial! it is really helpful! but I got a question in terms of publishing, can we publish it as well to other sites or sharepoint? what are the limitations?
Hello, thank you so much for the great useful tutorial. I have a problem with my animation, when i export my interactive pdf, the buttons work but the animation does not work. I wanted to know if you have any solution. thank you so much.
Penny, those images were licensed by me so I am sharing the watermarked versions. You are more than welcome to license the full versions for yourself, but at least the watermarked versions will allow you to follow along with the tutorial. Thanks!
Hello Angelo it's a great learning experience, The tutorial is really amazing, I have one problem while with the text scroller the extra text paragraphs are not coming while we are scrolling the scroll bar in the text. its coming blank. Thanks again.
I really love your videos I've learned a lot and can apply it on my projects! Question tho, the animation doesn't play on interactive PDF format but plays on the epub version. What should I do about it? Thank you so much~ Hope you can see this! Kudos!
Hi Cheilo! Animation is not supported for PDF so your options are EPub or Publish Online. If you're designing for a client, perhaps ask what platform they'd prefer. How will this project be viewed? If it's a personal project, the choice is all yours! :)
@@AngeloMontilla woah! Thank you for replying! And yep it is for a client and they prefer it to be in PDF format and I think they're not too familiar with epub format either. Thank you again! More videos please~😊
Best InDesign teacher 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I'm creating a project personal magazine, have problem to make decision the best layout size, since there are so many phone size/res and tablet/pad also. Which is the best size i should pick? (Priority for mobile phones)
Hi, I've been following your tutorials and it helps me a bunch. Have a general question on interactivity in terms of mobile view, on phones and iPad. Does rollover buttons, menu and scrolling frames work in mobile view, since there's no cursors? Do they use the functions in the browser view on mobile?
Awesome tutorial! Will this menu animation work standalone, like in an interactive pdf, or does it need to be published on the web? I'm working on an internal newsletter, so it needs to be self-contained.
Hi Lee! Thanks for the comment. You can publish it as an EPub (Fixed Layout) which would require it be viewed in an e-reader app such as Apple Books. The other option is exporting as HTML, but that isn't as easy as you think. It will package the HTML, js and images, then needs to be cleaned up in Dreamweaver or equivalent. My hope is that the digital publishing workspace in InDesign gives users more options for exporting and I think that may be coming in the future. In the interim, you may want to check out in5 - an extension that gives you more options to publish from InDesign to web. It comes at an annual cost, though. Take care.
Hi Angelo, thanks so much for this video! Just one question, if I choose iPad Pro as the preset, will my design only work on iPad pros? It won't show well on other devices?
Hi Eva Great Question! No, what that means is the project is meant or will be best viewed on iPad. It'll still work for other platforms but the viewing experience won't be as great, especially on mobile. If you're designing something for multi-platform use, choose something that will work well for all devices. Take care!
@@AngeloMontilla Hi Angelo! Thank you! Which one would you suggest to be the most effective preset/size for it to be viewed on multiple platforms? (laptop, mobile and ipad). Thanks so much!
Quick question: is this set up going to be responsive? I like the idea of a scrolling frame and a sidebar menu, but I'll need it to be responsive to accommodate readers who will be reading on mobile.
I love your tutorials...I just wondered if you can print an interactive magazine for those who are computer challenged .I live in a retirement Community and create the newsletter every 3 months and we do have some very 'anti' technology people!!!
Hi Maria! Yes, you can print the interactive PDF. You would just have to ensure it makes sense for the printed version. All the best and thanks for following along!
Hi Mattia! Yes, it'll work either in a mobile web browser when published online or in an e-reader, such as Apple Books. If you're on an Android/Windows, try an e-reader called Caliber. It's the best one I have found for those platforms.
Lukwago, PDF runs on Flash so none of these features will work unfortunately. There's really not much you can do with Flash anymore. This runs on HTML5, not flash. Take care.
Hello, I love your videos, I work a lot in indesign and with the latest events, the magazines that made physical have turned to digital and I have a question, is it possible to make a responsive design in indesign, both for PC and mobile?
Hey there! Not with the regular digital publishing settings built into InDesign, unfortunately. However, I know Ajar Productions' In5 has a feature for responsive design export to web. It is a paid subscription model but it could solve your issue. Check them out.
Dear Angelo, when I create a digital catalog (A4 page) and publish it online would it be responsive? If not so, how to create a responsive magazine? Do you have a video for this issue? Thank you in advance 🙏
Hey there! The Scrolling Frame tool is an add-on to the in5 extension. Download the extention (linked in the description), then when you first launch it, the scrolling frame window will prompt you to enter your email where download instructions will be sent to you. It's an added step but one that is worthwhile. It will 100% work in the latest version of InDesign.
@@AngeloMontilla Dear Angelo, thanks for following up - I had "binge-watched" some of your tuts yesterday and enjoyed your efforts! You really provide useful examples, all beautifully designed, and your explanations are carefully made, always also telling the audience how to get to a certain palette although a fast click or shortcut could do the trick... Also, your examples usually do show more than just one issue. Just on the fly, you mention this and that aside. Useful! I learned a lot and the more, I got inspirations not only on techniques but also on how to design things. You have good taste in typography. Hopefully, you will find more time to show us some more insights. The link did not work yesterday for me, somehow, but now "not logged-in" at Adobe it did. I will try it out now...
@@childhoodbusiness5057 Thank you so much for all the kind words. My goal is always to go at a pace where every level and skillset can follow along. Stay tuned for some more tutorials ahead! Take care.
Hi Carl! Thanks for pointing that out. I added a few more missing images and logos to the folder. If you open the InDesign file, you can copy the colour palette from there.
Angelo,..so does InDesign export the file out as a totally self contained web page? I must be having a brain fart because I know that there isn't any interactive capabilities in pdf format outside of simple links. I'm guessing I will need a web site already built and then I will have to upload a bunch of folders and files that InDesign exported.
You're absolutely right. You can use the Publish Online feature to publish the project to Adobe's servers, but if you want it custom built, you can Export as HTML and then use the js, html, images folders to build out on your own site using Dreamweaver or equivalent. Thanks!
Hey there! File > Export > HTML will export the assets and css. This won't retain the layout and interactivity, as you'll find out. To host on your own site this way, you'll need assistance from a dev - unless of course you are good with coding yourself. Just as an FYI, the In5 full license allows you to export for HTML5 without coding. Best of luck.
