Today we’re thrilled to welcome Archetypon to the Elements Store, another name many in the RapidWeaver community will already recognise :tada:

@Lucas has launched two beautifully crafted new projects, along with an impressive new component for Elements. Dromeas is a particularly fun and powerful addition.

Dromeas Component

The latest version of Dromeas made specifically for Elements features more scrolling and 3D transform equations, making a great option when looking for a distinct, out of the box project.

The included component allows for unlimited project designs. Projects examples are included in the package, so you can use them as start point for your own project. Check out this demo to see Dromeas in action!

It’s great to see that Archetypon is now represented in the Elements Store with their first templates and components.

I find the Dromeas component particularly interesting and will definitely take a closer look at it.

Looking forward to what’s coming next, and best of luck, @Lucas !

Congrats! :tada: @Lucas

Congrats @Lucas on the start. The Dromeas look really interesting and innovative :clap:

Thanks guys, good to be with you!

Very nice work! Creative!

As a customer of @Lucas for Blocs I can confirm, he’s worth his money :wink:

@ElementsMichael oh interesting, do you use Blocs and Elements?

Long answer:
Always wanted to use the classic rapidweaver but couldn’t get into it. coming as a designer from adobe golive / dreamweaver / adobe muse / adobe edge animate/reflow I ended at sparkle (now sitely) and blocs. love them both. but as elements was announced i purchased it imediately after testing. It is a great combination between adobe muse and blocs.

Short answer:
Yes :wink:

Ps.: As I have you attention :wink: now @dan , and as I was just mentioning the “old boys in the hood”: maybe i could pitch a nice idea borrowed from Dreamweaver and Golive for elements: As I am aware, an import of a Sketch design-file like in Sitely is not possible in elements, or would be hard to implement without using the designsystem within Sketch, it would be great though, if there would be a feature like in dreamweaver and golive to trace a website by importing a Sketch file or simply an image, and then put it to the background to put the components on top of it and adjust it accordingly to the layout. To be precise, check this excerpt here what I mean: …

Thanks @ElementsMichael :grinning_face:

Hi Dan, I tried to contact you directly but it appears, you are not accepting DMs at this moment. So maybe openly here in the forum, maybe others have the same problem too:

I purchased the Dromedas component but it seams to be corrupted in the store when I download it. I contacted Luas already and he asked me to ask you for a check, as also from his side it seams to be a broken/corrupted file. Have a look into my message to him below.

The file (component) in the panel looks broken. The component itself in the two templates Lucas provided the store, looks and works perfect though.

Hi Lucas

so I purchased the component but it seems it is broken or I cannot bring it to work. Have a look.
When installed, it appears at the component panel. But when dragged into the layers/page layout panel, the component appears as “unknown” and when selected, the inspector is empty.

How it looks in your video:

how it appears when dragged in and selected (on the right the inspector)

Any ideas?

Just a quick thing, can you try restarting Elements?

13

Restarted. Reinstalled. Restarted the Mac. Nothing happens. The Component looks like this:

@ElementsMichael ah-ha! I’ve looked into this and it appears it’s an issue with the template in the Dromeas component. — @Lucas will need to fix this, but it should be a simple fix as it’s probably just using an older (or internal) component in the template.

For now, open the sample Dromeas projects in the “New Project” window, or just drag in Dromeas component from the components list :slight_smile:

Here’s a video to explain:

Bravo!!! :clap: nice products

16

@dan Thanks for looking into this. I’ve removed the card component and submitted a new build. Hope this helps but looks like the issue for @ElementsMichael remains on the Dromeas component.

17

Awesome, that’s now live on the store! :slight_smile:

18

Thank you both. So if I understand correctly, for now the component is not available in the component panel (it dissapeared after reinstalling) and now I only see the template and need to go with the workaround as @dan suggested, right @Lucas ?

19

Drag it in from the Components tab, this is not a workaround, this is the way it’s supposed to work :+1:

Appologies, now I see it has been moved to the Layout-Section. And it works. Thx.
