Packaging up an Indigo prototype
posted

HI,

I've created a prototype in Indigo and I want to share it with a client. However when it packages up the prototype it only packages up 3 of the 6 screens that I have created and so when you try and run the prototype from the Indigo website it gets an error saying a screen is missing. I navigate to new sceeens rather than changing the screen in the interactions and they all appear in the project design view.

How does the packaging work? Do I have to have the files/screens in a particular order?

I've tried copying the files and starting from a new directory but it doesn't find the images in the screens.

I'd like to be able to reuse screens I've created in new prototypes (to show different scenarios) how can I do that as there doesn't seem to be an import feature or a way of reusing screens?

Any help is much appreciated

    Thanks for your question, Graham. By default Indigo shares the prototype as a whole (i.e., screens with interactions between them).

    To get a sense of what your prototype will contain, when you are in the project home, try switching the view from list/gallery mode to screen-screen navigation mode. This will generate a connected view of your screens, and you get a sense whether there are any screens that are islands (i.e., have no outgoing or incoming interactions/links). Check out the following help topic for an image of the connected view: http://indigo.infragistics.com/help/finding-your-designs.html

    If you select only some of the screens (e.g., screen 1, screen 3), the share option changes to "Share Selected." It's possible that in your prototype, the only way to get to screen 3 was via screen 2. And this will result in a prototype with missing screens. I may have misunderstood your specific situation. If so, feel free to ping us with more questions.

    Just remember when sharing a subset of the prototype, think of it as a sharing a connected set of screens, and not individual  screens. If your intention is to share specific screen states, you can use the export to PNG option.
