A stunning plugin. I wanted my first iOS app to make a great impression and using this plugin has achieved just that. A fantastic contribution from Kittsy. I am most grateful that he created this plugin for us to use. Here's the settings I came up...

More Information
This plugin allows you to create a carousel of images to use as a menu. The behaviour of the
carousel is configured using the advanced properties in the control panel.

This plugin was derived from an open source project here:

JSON Data

------------------------

If you manually enter the data for this plugin, the JSON data will include a list of childItems
representing each image in the carousel.

{
"itemId":"1111",
"itemType":"Buzz_carousel",
"navBarTitleText":"Buzz Carousel",
"childItems":[
{
"itemId":"carouselItem_1",
"itemType":"AK_carouselItem",
"titleText":"This is item 1",
"loadScreenWithItemId":"1234"
},
{
"itemId":"carouselItem_2",
"itemType":"AK_carouselItem",
"titleText":"This is item 2",
"loadScreenWithItemId":"2345"
}
]
}

If you provide carousel item data from a remote file there is no childItems array in the screen
definition in the BT_config.txt file. Instead, the carousel items are pulled from a remote file.

{
"itemId":"1111",
"itemType":"Buzz_carousel",
"navBarTitleText":"Buzz Carousel",
"dataURL":"http://www.domain.com/carouselItemData.php"
}

In this case the carousel items would come from a backend script at the dataURL. Loading
the dataURL in your browser would produce output like this....

{
"childItems":[
{
"itemId":"carouselItem_1",
"itemType":"AK_carouselItem",
"titleText":"This is item 1",
"loadScreenWithItemId":"1234"
},
{
"itemId":"carouselItem_2",
"itemType":"AK_carouselItem",
"titleText":"This is item 2",
"loadScreenWithItemId":"2345"
},
{
"itemId":"carouselItem_3",
"itemType":"AK_carouselItem",
"titleText":"This is item 3",
"loadScreenWithItemId":"3456"
}
]
}
