How to create a rich object

[Frank]

Hey,

although I studied the "How to create rich object" I could not manage
to show any selected objects and the selected map along with the rich
object I created.

For example I created http://hypercities.ats.ucla.edu/?objects/37350
and saved the map layout as well as the selected objects from
http://hypercities.ats.ucla.edu/provider/collections/37258.kml to the
file.

Can anyone help?

Hi Frank,

Rich objects only turn on other objects in narrative mode. Because
your collection won't open in narrative mode now, it won't show up.
Sorry--we're still trying to figure out what's wron with your
collection. Could you try putting the objects into a new collection
one by one and open the collection in narrative mode after you add
each object? This might help us diagnose the problem.

Thanks,
David

Hi David,

I transfered all the objects to a new collection (with a spelling
mistake ;)): http://hypercities.ats.ucla.edu/provider/collections/37547.kml
(the narrative mode still does not work)

I noticed that the linkof the collection (in narrative mode) do not
show up properly: http://hypercities.ats.ucla.edu/?collections/undefined

Furthermore some of the KML contain not only geodata on the objects
which I had marked but also on other objects of the same collection:

e.g. http://hypercities.ats.ucla.edu/provider/objects/37262.kml

maybe this information is helpful to find the problem.

best regards,

f.
