  • Features

    MegaZine3 offers you some unique features, additionally to those common among other pageflip engines.

    Elements
    Pages are not just one image, but contain multiple elements. This way you can place several images, videos or other content in one page very easily. More on elements.
    Plugins
    The true wealth of features is unlocked using plugins. To name a few: the navigationbar, deeplinking (SWFAddress), search and print. This also makes the engine easily modifyable for your own needs. More on plugins.
    Completely Skinnable
    All GUI components are styled using XML files. This way it is possible to change the GUI completely, without touching any code at all, for example to create custom skins.
    More on the used framework.
    Localization (i18n)
    Deeply integrated support for localized books. The language can be changed any time, and only changed elements will be reloaded. All element properties (e.g. image sizes or path) can be bound to a language.
