Cover flow in single area

SnapFireStudios

Hey,

I looked at GSHelper's free Cover Flow template. However, I only want this affect in a small area of my screen. I do not want to edit the camera at all.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

P.S. If someone is willing to make an example, you may as well just PM me and i'll pass you my file. It'd be easier for both of us.

I just tried a modification of the GSHelper cover flow... it didn't work.
Any ideas?

I was actually curious about this as well. Thinking of the possibility of having 4 of them working simultaneously. I second the question.

Can you explain more as to how you see this working and how its intended to be used?

Lets say for example that the user can only swipe in the left half of the screen. Do you mean like this?

@beefy_clyro Basically like the default apple time or date selector. They can only effectthe cover flow if they touh on the wheel.

And still, only by moving the cover flow objects, not the camera.

Any ideas on this one? I'd really appreciate it.

I think I found something from @MarkOnTheIron that'll suit my needs.
It's the 'Cover Flow' demo on this page.

I just need it slowed down a bit. Right now when I drag across it multiplies my velocity/position of the drag by 2 or 3 times. Can anyone suggest how to slow this down?
I'm going to take a look at the code to see if I can figure it out.

Thanks,
