Hide TOC when the user navigates to the beginning of the same blade
Hello
I have a project that includes a series of clips video (each clip is on a transparency) and the user must watch all the videos to complete the course. Therefore, we took the scroll bar, forward, fast forward, etc. from the PlayBar and also don't allow navigation to the slides that have already been viewed. I have each slide set to hide the table of contents at the entrance so that when they use the table of contents to go back and review a slide, they have to close. Works great, except when a user decides that they were not paying attention, or for any other reason, they want to return at the beginning of the slide they are displayed. Then, when they use the table of contents to the beginning of the same blade that they are on the books of navigation, but the table of contents is not hidden. For users, this is considered as an inconsistency and as if something is broken. Is it possible for me to trigger an action automatically to say the second 1 mark to close the table of contents?
I am using Captivate 7.0.1.237 on a Mac Pro, running the Mavericks.
Thank you
Walter
Captivate has no way by default to do. Using the table of contents to return at the beginning of the same blade you DO NOT enforce the event on slide enter again. If you enter the slide to ANOTHER slide, which fires.
There is a free widget that allows you to perform advanced time-based actions:
http://www.Infosemantics.com.au/widgetking/the-widget-pages/
However, this widget may not work in any version after Cp6.1:

So it's a SWF widget not compatible with HTML5

Two questions on the same blade
Hello
I'm developing a questionnaire of type on Captivate 4. I have a section where he first asks the user a yes / no question, and then teaches them to type in an explanation if they chose 'yes '. I also need this work so that the two question-answers (Yes/No and the answer text) the spokesperson of the LMS/Email report.
For example - the first question is ' is it a complementary training you feel you still need? "-which the user must select 'Yes' or «» Then directly below it is written "If Yes, please explain what kind of training you need" - giving the user a text box to type in their answer.
I know I can do this by adding two 1) Yes/No type question, question of type 2) short answer questions. But the trouble with this is that these two appear on two blades (which is not great for the user).
Is there a way to get these two questions (or interaction) on the same blade? As always... any advice would be much appreciated
Hello
It's possible, if you are ready to use variables and advanced actions where you create the question slide totally. Maybe is easy to imitate the workflow you ask, by duplicating the YES/no slide of short answer Question No response in a text caption (you can add) to a default value. I'll try to explain:
- You create a true/false question slide and be sure that there is enough space left under the answer
- You create a short answer question, but reorganize this question and add a text caption. In this TC, you will have the answer that appears when access to this slide.
- If the answer is Yes, go to the second slide, where you show the Yes. If the answer is no, jump elsewhere
Even if you still Question two slides, normally the user will not be aware.

can 2 questions on the same blade cause different identifiers?
I use 8 Captivate. I have problems with the interaction of SCORM 1.2 question ID.
I have 2 questions in the survey on the same blade. When it is reported to the LMS, these two issues appear. But they have the same interaction ID. For example:
I hope that my spouse
My spouse trusts me
These two questions are emerging in Moodle as this:
Agree 12345_I_trust_my_spouse
12345_My_spouse_trusts_me disagree
Is it possible to add a second identifier to each question? It would help my queries of the database of the LMS.
Thank you!
Not as far as I know, because each slide of questionnaire has only one identifier...
You could create a custom Likert question, using standard objects and having an interactive object for each question. Each interactive 'object' can have its identifier. But a question slide is considered to be "one" object, not each response.

Group the results of four boxes of text on the same blade
I'm looking for is a advanced/action variables that can help you:
Group the results of four boxes of text on the same Blade (this isn't a slide of questionnaire).
4 correct = reveals a legend of success and lets the user move forward to the next part of the course.
3 correct entries = reveals a legend of suspicion and gives the user two options - 1) allows the user to move forward 2) directs the user to a section of the examination.
correct inputs 2 or less = reveals a legend of failure and directs the user to a section of the examination.
Hello
Here is the link to the blog:
http://lilybiri.posterous.com/aggregating-results-TEBS-in-Captivate
You can literally use the same actions in Captivate 5. You will have a Next button and normal examination (instead of a form button), and maybe you don't need the 'actor', I added. I would like to know if you have any problems or questions.

Use the standard action and action scripts conditional on the same blade upon entry
I want two different types of action to run on blade scripts enter the same blade, one second apart.
1 script: fill a variable with the current date. It is a standard action going right.
2nd script (run 1 sec after the first script): If the above variable is greater than the current date, follow these steps. It is a conditional action.
How can I get Captivate perform these two actions in the same blade? I can do if 1 script is located on the previous slide and the script 2nd on the second slide. However this does not look good. I want these two scripts to run on enter the same blade. I use CP8. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Sharon
You can use the two decisions, the first decision designating a standard simulated action by using a condition that always leads to True:
First decision "always."
IF 1 is equal to 1
Assign the v_one with... the commands of your standard action
Second decision «...» »
IF v_one is equal to cpInfoCurrentDateString your conditional action
However, in CP8 it is NOT possible to delay of 1 orders dry, this is only possible in CP9. Why you want to defer checking?

I work in a sensitive project where I have a specific slide which will not move forward. I created a click box that goes to the next slide, and it remains in the same blade if it is in a loop. Very strange. What might be missing?
You can check the Advanced Interaction Panel? You have a note attached to the interactive objects in the simulation? If so, check the desired option Quiz, more specific preferences.

Is it possible to have TTS for several boxes to click on the same blade?
Hi all
Using v.7 and Win 7 here. Have a project where I use the voice of text-to-speech TTS of Paul. So far so good. I need to build an interactive slide with mulitple boxes click so that the learner can evaluate where they run into the status of projects. Is it possible to use the TTS for these mulitple boxes to click on the same blade? I see that you can import audio as a .wav or MP3 file but do not know how generate you TTS and save it separately, then it would be possible to import.
Thanks for the help
It's good to hear.

Show/hide region when the drop-down list is changed
Hello
I need show/hide a region when dropdow (selection list) is changed.
I used dynamic action:
Event : change Selection Type : Item(s) Item(s):P50_my_list condition : JS expression $v('P50_my_list') == 1 True Action : Action : Execute JS Code Code : $('#region_name').show(); // OR use Action ==> Show
False Action : Action : Execute JS Code Code : $('#region_name').hide(); // OR use Action ==> hide
But the region has still shown!
Also, I used a JS function (in the dynamic action of the place) but I met the same result.
function showHideRegion(pValue) { var show_or_hide = $x(pValue).value; if (show_or_hide == 1) {$('#ALTERNATIVEN_LIST').hide();} else {$('#ALTERNATIVEN_LIST').show();} }

Hello
I'm having a problem with a pdf file created for my business. It exports without problems and displays correctly on my computer, but once it is transferred to the Web site and you download from here, pages randomly displayed not correctly, images and pieces of text go missing and different "internal error" messages pop up, such as:
"An internal error has occurred."
"There is an error on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the pdf document to correct the problem.
"Failed to retrieve the embedded police"LICYDR + GaramondMT". Some characters may not display or print correctly.
"Insufficient for an image.And when I close the pdf file it asks if I want to save even if I did not bring any changes to the document. It seems that everyone has problems with pages and receive different error messages. It is exported using the smallest file size preset in InDesign. Any idea what could be the cause? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
Sarah
One thing to check is if BINARY is used in the FTP client. If a client FTP ASCII is used, it may corrupt PDF files.
Here's another thing to check yourself for you. Find the size in bytes of your original PDF. Now, look at the size of the uploaded file in bytes. Are they the same? If this is not the case, ask your colleague the size in bytes of the PDF file on the server. Is this the same as the original, or bad file?

Hide &; visible using the same button.
Hi, I want to add the button to my pdf form, which should make this push button is. If I click on this button, bellows must hide the data of 4 fields. If I click again the same button until the hidden data should visible. So how can do that. even java script is not serious... pls help me. Thank you very much..
4 fields
Text Field0.1.1
Text Field0.1.2
Text Field0.1.3.1
Text Field0.1.3.2
Yes. The display of the field has 4 possible values.
We could test each field and asjust the display of the found value property.
var cField = "Field0.1.1 text"; name of the field to be addressed;
oField = this.getField (cField) var; get the field object;
if(oField == null) {}
App.Alert ("error to the field-" "+ cField +" \ "", 0, 0);
} else {}
if(oField.Display == Display.visible) {}
change the visible display to hidden;
oField.display = display.hidden;
} else {}
set up any visible display;
oField.display = display.visible;
} / / end of display property;
} / / end of the object field..
var cField = "Field0.1.1 text"; name of the field to be addressed;
oField = this.getField (cField) var; get the field object;
if(oField == null) {}
App.Alert ("error to the field-" "+ cField +" \ "", 0, 0);
} else {}
if(oField.Display == Display.visible) {}
change the visible display to hidden;
oField.display = display.hidden;
} else {}
set up any visible display;
oField.display = display.visible;
} / / end of display property;
} / / end of the object field..
You can then use the above code for each field, write a loop to change the field name of the field. You can even write a function to toggle the display between visible and hidden property.
function GetField (cField) {}
Returns the field object for the name cField or null;
oField = this.getField (cField) var; get the field object;
if(oField == null) {}
App.Alert ("error to the field-" "+ cField +" \ "", 0, 0);
}
return oField;
} / / end GetField funcitonfunction ToogleDisplay (cField) {}
Tooble the show field between hidden and display;
var oField = GetField (cField); Retrieve the field object;
If (oField! = null) {}
if(oField.Display == Display.visible) {}
change the visible display to hidden;
oField.display = display.hidden;
} else {}
set up any visible display;
oField.display = display.visible;
} / / end of property of display field;
} / / end of the field object not null;
Returns true;
} / / end of ToggleDisplay function;ToogleDisplay ("Field0.1.1 text"); Toogle a field;
ToogleDisplay ("Field0.1.1 text"); Toogle a field;
ToogleDisplay ("Field0.1.3.1 text"); Toogle a field;
ToogleDisplay ("Field0.1.3.2 text"); Toogle a field;The above code will trap field name erors and advise of the number and continues to run.

Want to stay on the same blade after button click - Captivate 5
I have a button that I use to bring up a separate, a directory browser window. I need this button on every page of the module. I've got boxes to click to control the flow of the timeline from one page to another. When the user clicks on the glossary, it should stay on the current page, its information and dismiss the glossary. When I run it, the timeline stops for the button, and if clicked, the timeline progresses at the break of the click box, always on the same page. But if the user clicks on the button again, the pop-up window works but Captivate goes to the next page. Is it possible to prevent this, so that a user can click any number of times on the button without going through the progress of the timeline past this page?
Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
Hi DS,.
I use a javascript call to do what you describe all the time.
Since I use all the time I incorporate the real full javascript in the "standard.js" Captivate file. This is the complete script:
function openBrWindow (theURL, winName, features)
{
Window.Open (Theurl, winName, Features);
}I save the file standard.js. On my desktop, it's the path to this file:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 5\Templates\Publish\standard.js
Now I can call the script anytime.
Here's how to set up the click-box:
If you look at the picture of Rick (thanks Rick) in the menu control properties to the title of the Action, for the success, choose Run Javascript.
Then click on the button in the Script window, it opens an empty window. Given that you call just the javascript code, you need not put the script in the window. Here is an example:
JavaScript:openBrWindow('myURL.html','thewindowname','height=800px,Width=1000px,ScrollBars_=yes');
Example of THS opens a window 800px high and 1000 px in width with the scroll bars. You can add additional attributes if you wish. Make sure the URL is correct and is the correct path and if you have more than one of them on a slide that the name of the window will have to be different. (If this continues the slide to the slide you don't have to have them all as a single, only for more than one on a slide.
Now, click on the small arrow next to the button of the Script window. This produces a small drop down (as shown on the picture of Rick). Make sure you select 'Top' and disable the 'continue playing the Project '.
This control makes the newly laid on the project window and stops playback of the slide. You can set other options in the properties to enable or disable captions as needed.
I hope this helps.

Two action buttons on the same blade
Can anyone help?
Captivate v4
I want to create a slide that gives the user two options. ;
Either click on a button to go to a slide, I called 'Part 1' and continue the project until the end. or click another button to go to a slide, I called "Part 2" so miss the slides before "part 2" in order to continue to the end.
Whenever I try to do that, when I click on the button that should take me to the slide I called part 2, I always end up on the slide I have called "part 1".
I don't know there must be an easy way to 'jump' to different slides in a project via clicking the buttons on the same slide, but cannt get by.
Yours hopefully,.

Christmas salvation
It seems to me that you have a question buried in the substance of part 1, no slide? And if you do, I suspect more than you have set up your options quizzing such questions (or maybe even the question at hand) SHOULD continue before continuing. If this is the case, you will not be able to go beyond the question slide.
See you soon... Rick

Hide folders when the window of research project?
When you perform a search in the project window, is it possible to hide the folders that contain the results?
I work in online, and when I receive an offline editing tool often have very complicated folder structures to differentiate publishers offline between the cameras, shoot days, subjects, archives... But online I don't want that information, in fact normally I really want only a folder with all the media, and I may choose to sort by type of device for my own reference (all say the GoPro wants zoom 101%), but it is unlikely that I want to split things more than that.
Any ideas?
You can hide the tray, but then the result of your search (and everything else in this sandbox) will be hidden as well.
I think that what you really want here is to reorganize the bins to your liking.

Next button does not move come, but retains a loop on the same blade
Hello
I use 9 Captivate and am facing a problem with the next button. I did an image button and you want to move to the next slide. I have 15 slides in the project, but only the next button on slide 5 rather than navigate to slide 6, maintains a loop to slide 5. Ask for help from anyone who can help or was faced with a similar problem.
Thank you!
You can also check the actions of slide 6? More specific actions on the exit Enter / we on this slide? Maybe after a screenshot of the Interaction Panel advanced (F9)? Make sure that the actions for the slides and objects are completely visible by increasing the width of this column in the Panel.
Have you ever tried to delete slides and recreate it? It is always useful to mention the exact version number, you use as well.
