July’s early release brings to life a big, new design feature: The Font Manager. With the new font manager an author can upload any font file (.otc, .ttf & .ttc) to their account. Once the font file has processed (just a few seconds), the font can be added and used in any project. For authors who are working collaboratively with other ZebraZapps users, transferred projects with uploaded fonts will leave the fonts embedded in the project. However, for copyright purposes the fo

Keypads in your e-learning apps can help make a big difference with inputting numbers. A simple keypad in a gadget allows your users/learners to input a decimal point anywhere in their answer.

Our Keypad Only Gadget allows an author to import the logic of this keypad and employ it in their own project howev

User gestures are user movements recognized by ZebraZapps objects. ZebraZapps objects can react directly and/or send messages to other objects so they can react. For example, a button might respond to the mouse pointer being over it, change when the mouse button is clicked, and also make something happen when the button is clicked. ZebraZapps is very powerful in gesture recognition and object manipulation, so it's easy to create simulations and complex interactions. Check out
