I used DynamicModule in several CDFs and it alsways worked. You have to pay attention, that your dynamic content is really self-contained. To test this, you can copy the displayed manipulate into a new cdf, quit kernel or restart Mathematica and then it must still be usable. And, as Heike suggested, try to localize all variables you use. It's just clearer and less error prone. | |
| Mar 1, 2012 at 19:34 | comment | added | John Carzoli | thank you for the additional information. I understand there are some limitations to Manipulate and I am always learning of new ones it seems. I'm trying to work within these limitations so as to create CDF files to include on my webpage for my students to interact with. Interactivity through a CDF file can only be done using Manipulate at least as far as I have read in the CDF documentation. However, your examples are great because I could also have versions of my demos in standard notebooks using the less restrictive DynamicModule and give these to students who have MMA. Thanks! | |
