Creating a button that highlights himself and another object

Hi all

I have a specific function, I am applying for my InDesign document for export to interactive PDF and SWF/html format.
The function that I am creating is:
I have a picture of a typical WYSIWYG toolbar. I created highlight buttons that sit on top of each icon in the image. When the reader hovers over this image of an icon (with the cursor) I want it highlight and also a piece of text lower on the page to highlight as well (which is a definition and an explanation of the icon). So I want the reversal of my first button action to also trigger another action, which is to highlight a piece of text somewhere else on the page. I managed to get so I put the cursor on the first button (icon image), it highlights, and the text below the page. But this isn't quite what I want. I want the text already exists, then highlight. Basically I want the two buttons to be connected. So that whenever I have fly over a part of the image of a created button, it will highlight, and a piece of exploratory text highlight simultaneously elsewhere on the page. A bit like an infographic. It is surely possible?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Generally, the animations as this is to export a SWF file are better be done in Adobe Flash.

In Indesign that kind of market, too. Only for export as SWF, you can assign to the action "go to the State." For a text block, you can assign different status, where the 1st State would be 'normal' and the 2nd status would be "highlighted". Highlighted applies to the object "text frame", so that you can assign a contour or background. Better than nothing.

  • I can create a button that links to the slideshow widget

    I'm creating a portfolio for a class site. This is a one page site, one of my sections will be my section "work." I want to organize my work, I made the buttons that relate to each category of work. Is there anyway that I can connect this to the slideshow widget.

    Hello

    You cannot directly associate a button with a slide show. However, you can embed the slide show into a tooptip target and adds the button to trigger the ToolTip, as mentioned in this post: Re: how to create a button that displays news on the same page?

  • Is it possible to create a button that goes back to the previous page?

    I would like to create a button that is located within an interactive pdf page which, when a click, turn to my previously visited page.

    As the page can be accessed through many other pages the traditional built in action menu does not Execute.

    The page that will appear (at the click of a button) is a variety of sizes of mattresses that I want to be accessible by each bed product in our collection. Once the user has looked at the mattress size guide, I want them to be able to back to bed product they were looking for, without having to then do scroll and search.

  • How to create a button that allows the user to check their form to find errors?

    Hello

    I use LiveCycle ES3.  I would like to add, at the end of my form (independent, NOT on a web form), a button that allows the user to check their form for errors, and then display a list of errors and highlight areas with errors.  Finally, he must turn off highlight these fields when the errors have been corrected.

    Also, in the form, if the user makes selections, they must include an attachment with their form.  I want to make sure when they make selections that requires an attachment, a field is generated at the end of the form that lists all required attachments.  Is this possible?

    Thank you.

    The button validate calls a Script called "controller" object If you look at the hierarchy of the form Variables example there are two Script objects: controller and validation. Script objects are used to maintain the reusable script functions.

    You have to re-create those for validation to work. If you right click on 'form1' (or whatever your node in the foreground is called in the hierarchy), you can select "insert a Script object. You will need to do it twice.

    In the hierarchy, there is then a node Variables with two Script objects. Name them even as the form of the sample and copy and paste the sample form scripts in them.

  • You can create a button that will go to several key frames?

    Hi, I'm doing an rpg style character select interfaces.  What I'm trying to do is very similar to the image below. How to create a button like the stats, equipment and supplies that will each show a different image or text depending on the character you choose. If noone played this game facebook before wonder, if you choose, for example, Ironman, the buttons on the right then go stats, bio and the train. Each character will show a different bio when we click on the button of bio. Make a different screen for each character with the same layout of the buttons in the same place? I think I've just answered my own question but I want to assure you that it is possible. Each portrait of character, his stats, bio and gear is on its own layer and have the buttons go to these specific key frames? Thank you

    While you could create a different screen for each, a better way to do it is by a form of database.  Buttons cause the functions to be performed and functions use data resources account required to choices that are put in place.

    So if find you a particular character, a variable is assigned a value which indicates that.  This variable is then used to retrieve the data associated with the character and build the screen elements related to the options of this character.

  • AS2 - a button that goes in and plays the next image in a moveiclip

    Hi all

    I have a button (called wrong_btn ) that I want to order a moveiclip ( called lives_mc ).

    Gameplay: If you click on wrong_btn , a life is removed.

    lives_mc.JPG

    Visually, lives_mc is a bottle that is empty and this is done through the frameworks within the mc.

    How can I get a button to move a picture to the image until the bottle is empty?

    Thank you very much

    lives_mc.nextFrame ();  If the keyframes are adjacent to each other.  Otherwise, use Stop
