If your app doesn't have unique features or exists in a market where iBookstore is well represented(usually foreign language ebook apps are fine, but it still depends), chances are it will be rejected as well. Please note that, unfortunately, we can not refund your license purchase if your app gets rejected on these grounds.\"\r\n\r\nGiven this, while I don't see this as an issue, can we start a dialog of what we feel are good examples of interaction, etc. that would prohibit our solutions/apps being rejected by Apple?  \r\n\r\nThoughts?","assignee":null,"id":2492316,"number":230,"pull_request":{"patch_url":null,"html_url":null,"diff_url":null},"labels":[],"title":"eBook/Magazine interaction ideas","html_url":"https://github.com/Simbul/baker/issues/230","closed_at":null,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Simbul/baker/issues/230","milestone":null},"action":"created","comment":{"created_at":"2011-12-08T19:56:56Z","updated_at":"2011-12-08T19:56:56Z","user":{"gravatar_id":"5c29fce992cb8dbbf0dc4ebfe9ffa4d6","id":825812,"url":"https://api.github.com/users/inventionarts","avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5c29fce992cb8dbbf0dc4ebfe9ffa4d6?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","login":"inventionarts"},"body":"One related suggestion: many such designs can be implemented without much if any hand-coding using Hype, by http://tumultco.com - and dropped pretty much directly into a book.\r\n\r\nWe've found it beneficial to do a fair amount of custom JavaScript, particularly to build \"data-driven\" mini-apps for the page, rather than hardwired, multi-scene Hype presentations. The good news is Hype does support such custom coding, too.\r\n\r\nSimilarly, Sencha Animator offers ways to attach behaviors to images, or to move between scenes within an animation. We have found the animations are smoother using Sencha, as they routinely optimize to take advantage of hardware acceleration, and not clear Hype does this as aggressively.","id":3069031,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Simbul/baker/issues/comments/3069031"}}
