Boxes vs. button click / prevent the graying of the slides
1. When is it best to use a box of click vs a button (or vice versa)?2. Why have the buttons area "inactive" after the active area? That happens if I want my button to display for the first five seconds and then become active - what is the best way to do this?
3. on slide 1, I have a chart "NEXT" covered by a click box. I want the movie to pause until the user clicks the click box. In web page preview, slide 1 stops but becomes gray after the slide has reached the end of the timeline. How can I prevent graying out?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the detailed explanations of Rick. It makes sense now...
Your answer made me think of something else that solved my problem 'fading out '. What happens is that the Slide > Transition for carriage 1 properties have been set to ' Transition', but 2 Slide has been set to ' fade between "- so even if the slide was a break, the chronology has continued and disappeared to the slide...
I had the same scenario on another film Captivate-, I created so I now know how to solve this problem here too!
Thanks Rick... you get a gold star today!

Hello
I'm the kind of newish to Captivate and I are struggling to grasp the difference between the buttons, and then click boxes outside their styles/default settings?
What can we do with a click box that cannot be done with a button and vice versa?
For the moment, I'm trying to recreate a virtual dial pad. The user will have to click on the correct number on the dial pad. If he does some starry animation starts (advances + effect actions) whereas if he clicks on the wrong number a few different / animation effect comes into play. Ask yourself which of the buttons or click boxes will do the better job for the virtual keys.
Thanks for your contributions
You forget the shape buttons, most powerful because you can fill them with an image, create three States (in CP8) and they also work as text containers, can have any form: turn an Image into a button - Captivate blog
Unlike the click box and the normal button they can be programmed for the rest of the project and used on master slides, question slides, slide to score.
Why I like the shape buttons - Captivate 6! -Captivate Blog
Buttons on Question/Score of Captivate 6 slides? -Captivate Blog
They are all three interactive objects (such as text entry, which is a bit special area). Click box is by definition invisible to the user of the published course and has his break (which is enabled by default) to the end of his chronology. You can put it on your numbers, or (what I would personally do) create buttons form for them. Designates an object instead of two.
The normal buttons are visible to the user, and you can put his suspension point anywhere (like form buttons): then you'll see an active and an Inactive part in their chronology. In the Active part, the object is interactive, can trigger an action (Advanced, shared, or simple). In the inactive part the button remains visible but so it is more interactive. This is the main difference with click boxes. Many users create a button transparent, invisible because they do not know click areas. It's just too much work to achieve the same thing with a click box. You can also activate a button of form into something that is invisible (not), and that may have more detect if you want a free hotspot.

To move to the next when slide user mouse clicks on the slide
I work with Captivate 6 in Windows. I imported a Powerpoint slide deck, with the setting automatically advance the slides. It works quite well. The problem is that when a user clicks on a slide before it is complete, it will advance to the next slide. How can I disable this. There is no clickboxes on the slides showing in the timeline panel. And entry and exit Actions on blades are set to 'no Action '.
I came up with a workaround for the problem that I had. What I've done in captivate I placed a clickbox on top of each slide, the size of the entire slide and set the action of the click to success No Action box. Now users can not go to the next slide until all of the current slide has played through.

Problems in using images for screensaver - error preventing the slide show
original title: problems in using images for screensaver
I always enjoyed using my photos for a screen saver. Now, I get the message "an error prevents the slideshow to play." How can I find and fix the error?
Hello
Did you change your computer?
I suggest you to follow the steps and check
a. go to
C:\Users\ \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4
and rename "Pictures.pd4".It can also help to remove all the video of the target directory files, although the screen saver will play some video formats.

Value store on button click for the subtraction of the background
Hi people,
I am very new to labview so I hope you'll bear with me.
I am acquiring data on intensity of a camera permanently in a while loop, turning it into a matrix 1024 x 1 and display them in a graph. I need a way to subtract the background of the camera signal and display the rest. In a programming language wrote that she would go something like:
BG = 1024 zeros
If (Button Pushed)
BG = current frame
on the other
do nothing
new_sig = current image - bg
I tried case structures, global variables and shift registers, but none who seem to work. I am somehow at the end of my rope. I would like to know if there is any other info, I can provide.
Thanks for your help!

Add or remove destinations in the send to box after right-clicking on the programs.
is it possible to add or remove destinations in the send to box? I have a program called it Konvert which I deleted via my progs add/remove from the past few months and I would like to add a wave converter program called Switch order to convert MP3 to Wav. I could then send the direct file.
I don't know that you can do.
With regard to your audio converter...
I also Switch. As you already noticed, convert to Wav format is going to explode the size of the file. I say good shot upward.Here's a program a lot better a lot, a lot, for audio conversion. 'S called it CDex.
He keeps the SAME size of file in WAV format mp3 *.

How to stop the blade until it clicks of the user before the button using Clickbox
I just upgraded to Captivate 3 to 4. What are the configurations Clickbox "Slide Stop until the user clicks on the box before?" I forgot.
Hello
By their very nature click boxes and buttons usually stops the slide until the user clicks. Do you mean that they are not? I ask because I've seen the strangeness with Captivate 4 where mine are not either. Have not taken the time to troubleshoot it again.
The possibility to pause is normally in the Options tab.
See you soon... Rick

Ability to add Google Analytics to track the link/button click?
I would like to follow the button clicks and the link on my site to Muse that lead to external websites. For example - by clicking on a 'Buy Now' button on my site from Muse leads to 3rd part of page Web. Is it possible to add Google Analytics in these Articles? I already have the GA code integrated on my main site, but it gives me all the data about the button clicks or any other type of event. Any information would be appreciated!

I can't make any promises in that regard. Our team is already to check it out and work on it. The best solution to implement this will be your site in html export, and using a code editor, you can apply your features.

This site requires a username to be filled in a specific area and in another box, you enter a series of numbers generated by a generator of numbers (so not a password - different series each time that you open a session).
However I do not want my user name appears automatically in the first box. Trying to change that in the security settings (extra-options-security), there is a password section where you can choose any exceptions to the rule of the memory (if the box remember is marked). When clicking the exceptions button, the url of the site I'm talking about is not displayed, and it cannot be entered either, since you can't delete here.
When you click on the option "saved passwords", nor the site, nor the username is listed. I think I've read all the help sections regarding usernames and passwords, but found no solution.
How can I avoid this username (so only a user name - not the usename/password combination), appear in the box?Click on the box, hover over the drop-down menu with your mouse, if you select the word you want to delete, and then press the delete key. If Firefox fills automatically in forms of control

Can't stay in the browser without clicking on the mouse
Sounds crazy. I'll start typing (as in this message box!) when my cursor disappears. I have to click my mouse to put the cursor in the browser (or else I care to) in order to continue. So annoying, especially when you type a password and it is only showing asterisks, and you will have to start all over again! It happened just after the last update. Not sure if this is the last update or if I need a new mouse. I have the Apple wireless mouse. I am running OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.4, iMac late 2009, with keyboard and wireless mouse. The situation gets really annoying. I would like to delete e-mails from 5-10 at a time by holding down the control button. I'll have to delete one at a time now because I have selected 10, the cursor disappears, I need to reselect all over again. I'm ready to Chuck all that and just use my MacBook Pro, but I really like my big iMac monitor!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi sharon289,
Thank you for using communities Support from Apple! I'm sorry to hear that you are having this problem with your iMac. It is certainly unusual. To narrow down the possible causes of this problem / clicking on the slider downwards, you can try to boot mode safe (a start more limited mode which load only essential services). You can also try to test in a new test user account and see if the problem persists there as well. You can find information and the steps in the following articles useful:
Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning - Apple Support
How to test a question in another account on your Mac - Apple Support
Note: Safe Mode is not limited to troubleshooting startup problem, despite the framing of the article above.

an error prevents the slideshow showing in my photo gallery
After that I updated my computer with the vista package 1 I can't see my photos as my as slide show or screen saver
Jennifer24 Hello,
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.
I searched and found that several others were having the same issue as you are.
Here are some suggestions of these forums:
(1) before any changes it is recommended to back up your files and then put a restore point from the system if necessary, you can restore to a previous state.
To create a manually restore point:
Click Start.
Right click on my computer.
Select Properties.
In the task on the left pane, click System Protection.
Select a disk (place check mark in the box if it is not already) in the list, usually C: and click Create.
Type a name to identify this restore point (e.g. "prior to the update of the pilot").
Click on the button create.
When you are finished, Windows opens a window indicating that the restore point was created successfully.
(2) your card video must have a certain amount of memory shipped with DirectX 9 support for slideshow screensavers work. It is recommended to have a video card with 128 MB of video memory that supports shader 2.0 pixel for Photo Search screen to work.
DirectX is a technology that manages all the graphics technology in the presentation of the office system and Visual effects.So, you will need to have a video card updated with the latest updated drivers GUI to render successfully.
Go to the manufacturer of your video card and the search for driver downloads. Download the most recent driver to install.
(3) change the power settings for the best plan for your configuration. Balanced, high performance or energy saver.
- Open Power Options by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Power Options.
- According to the plan that you want to change, click on change plan settings.
- The parameters of change for the plan page, choose the display settings and the sleep that you want to use when your computer is running on battery (mobile PC only) and when it is plugged.
(4) the next thing is to look in the folder of Photos for all the shortcuts or other types of media. You can try to remove the video files and clips that are in the folder that you use for the screen saver pictures. This has been known to cause problems with the screensaver and Photo slide shows.
(5) the final step is to update the realtek drivers, if they are on your system. Use the link provided,
At the end of each step, see if the slideshow works. This will help find what question is the cause of your problem.
If please post again and let us know if these measures have contributed to get your slideshow in screensaver running.
Sincerely,
Marilyn
