This is a really great component, in every respect. A lot of hard work must have been put into this, congratulations !

I agree, the interface clearly has a lot of thought put into it and is quite original and easy to use. Keep up the good work !

A nightmare to setup up and understand for non-AS3 expert programmers, I'm not a newbie. I have basic knowledge for as1 and as2 and have been spending some time trying to figure it out how to create one menu from the scratch unsuccessfully. Samples provided are really helpful, however impossible to even change something really simple as an icon(dynamically) from example files, got ugly papervision 3d errors. I understand this has taken a huge effort regarding as3 programming, and it's an amazing piece of code but not really suited for regular flash cs3 designers, this is intended for experienced AS3 programmers! Currently an useless component for me, what about a "how to" guide and a more extensive manual covering a step by step setup process?

Do I need papervision 3d libraries installed on development machine?, if so what version(1.XX or 2.XX)? Does it require to have installed the open source tweener? What other dependencies(if so) I'm gonna need to edit your sample files so I can play with it a bit while I learn how this works. Obviously I have to use timeline a lot in conjuntion with AS3 to make it fly. I think this component it's simply not for me.

It is quite very nice but, I don't find the most important the linkage or URL in the XML in Basic or Intermediate examples. Please I need your support. By Example: ......... ............
......... Thanks

That is great to hear, especially from one of the top authors ;) Tree 3D was (is) indeed a lot of work, but not only in the component itself but in exploring a innovative, user friendly and functional way to approach a tree data structure.

We've updated the examples with super simple step by step FLA files. We also left the more advanced examples there for the people who feel confortable with AS3 :)

I suppose you mean a url that opens when you click on an item? If so, there is a really simple example on the examples zip file at: Examples\\1. Basic-Step by Step\\5. events\\Open URL on click.fla Basically you must add a url attribute in each node in your xml like this:Then on the fla, you add the following: import com.zerofractal.tree3D.tree3DItemEvent; function onClick(e:com.zerofractal.tree3D.tree3DItemEvent) { navigateToURL(new URLRequest(e.item.data.@url), "_blank"); } tree3D.addEventListener(tree3DItemEvent.ITEM_CLICK,onClick); For more information browse page 9 of the user guide: http://issuu.com/zerofractal/docs/tree3d-user_guide/9 If you still have doubts on how to hook up to the click events, please PM me. Thanks for your support to tree3D!

This is one of the best components I have ever seen. Great work and skills.

I am really sorry to hear that. I had a bit of a nightmare myself going from AS2 to AS3. I tried to make the component as similar as possible to the AS tree component in, especially in tasks such as customizing icons and labels. Despite this, the user manual, does describe this procedures with examples, which should work, but you do need some AS3 knowledge, since the component relies a lot on event listeners. I'd say an intermediate AS knowledge is what is needed, as would be to successfully customize Flash's data components. For example, to customize an icon with assets from the library, one must simply add a function. This is an excerpt from the user guide: Customizing Icons Icons and Labels can be easily customized by using the iconFunction property. This way you can create a simple handler that is called upon when each item is about to be created. For icons, you can look at the XML data for that item and decide the name of the symbol from your library you will use for the icon. Icon symbols must be %u201Cexported for actionscript%u201D, and be contained within 128x128 pixels. If you want to use an alternate size, set the iconWidth and iconHeight properties accordingly. Example: function myIconFunction(item:Object):String { var icon_mc:String = "empty_mc"; switch (item.data.name().toString().toLowerCase()){ case "folder": icon_mc = "folder_mc"; break; case "document": icon_mc = "document_mc"; break; } return icon_mc; } tree3D.iconFunction = myIconFunction; I will make the documentation files freely available for anyone who wants to see if the component is for you before purchasing. I also recommend downloading the latest version of the component which was uploaded this afternoon (v 1.0.6) which fixes some memory leaks and most of those ugly papervision errors (I hope)!! I'll write a simple step by step guide to set up a basic tree, which I could publish tomorrow. On the mean time, if you private message me regarding specific hurdles, I will gladly help you out, since I just moved to AS3 myself and I understand the nightmare this can be :)

Superpowter77, You should not need papervision or tweener installed. Files should fly by themselves. Please download the latest version and give them a go. If it fails, please private message me.

First of all really nice work on the component. I can tell that there is a lot of hard work behind that. I will be using this component for my personal portfolio. I am a flash developer and that component will save me a lot of time implementing something like that. I have read your ref documentation, but can't find a public method that will navigate to a specific level and index item. Some method that you are using for the breadcrumbs links. I would like to trigger the same event that breadcrumbs rise using AS3 code. Is there an undocument public method that does that or is it private? Thanks

I have followed a different approach after all and didn't used that event. You can take a look at: http://www.tsaknis.com
