Show/Hide Action on Master Slide

• Advanced to show/hide actions using an object that is set to show the project on another slide?

  I'm working on a piece of senario based e-Learning and I have built a few things with the help of advanced on a slide Actions that must be available in the rest of the project.

  But the idea falls off when I need to copy objects to another slide, give to each new instance and modify the script.

  In this spirit, I have configured the objects on the screen during the rest of the project property, but I am unable to get them to show or hide a different slide when clicking on a button on the slide.

  Is there anyway to make this work? Or am I aiming too high?

  It depends on the version you are using:

  In version 5: you can only hide objects, the value to display for the rest of the project, on leaves where the object is not 'really', where he has his script (http://lilybiri.posterous.com/playing-hide-and-seek-with-captivate-objects)

  Since version 5.5, you can hide AND show this kind of objects perfectly. My blog has a lot of examples of these workflows.

  In version 6, you can even display the buttons in form for the rest of the project, hide and show their. In previous versions, this kind of schedule is impossible for interactive objects.

• Show/hide actions according to percentage result CP5 quiz button

  Hello

  I read the various messages on the display to a file in case of success of a quiz, and how to create actions combined with a new slide with buttons to go to another slide.

  However, none of these options has solved my problem.

  I need a certificate to display (currently on a slide, but could be an external PDF I guess) if the user gets a passing grade.

  I have a slide with two buttons (because I can not add a button on a quiz results slide)

  "one for ' Get certificate ' happening to the slide with the certificate (the button Get_cert item name)

  a single button for "quiz Retry" (element name retry_quiz) which refers the user to the slide corresponding to the first random question slide

  So I have written/built advanced actions:

  If cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1

  See the Get_cert

  Hide retry_quiz

  If cpQuizInfoPassFail equals 0

  See the retry_quiz

  Hide Get_cert

  But when I run the project in Premiere, when I'm on the pass mark, the two continue buttons to display. (and even when I do not see)

  I could have missed something obvious realllllly, so please put me right!  Amybe that's to do with AS3?

  See you soon,.

  Hello

  I don't want to not pop, because I suspect other issues? Can I ask you a few questions?

  1. What is the default status of these two buttons on the additional slide? It must be configured for both at the Invisible in the properties panel.
  2. This action must be triggered by entering the slide with the buttons, as suggested. But I am a little confused by you the description of the action, would have preferred that you posted a screenshot of the action. You define two decisions? Normally you might have solved that with a single decision (see the screenshots)
  3. Did you allow that several attempts in Quiz preferences? Don't forget to delete the revision Quiz, so that the user does not use this button to return to review his answers.
  4. It's probably superfluous, you have configured the two buttons to access the right slide?

  I just tried the workflow in a small example and it worked perfectly. Here are the screenshots of the tip action I started entering the slide with the two buttons.

  I'm sorry that my current connection does not allow me to download the screenshots. It is my Advanced action ' Passed):

  IF

  cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1

  THEN

  See the Get_cert Get_cert = label of the first button, initially hidden; button = certificate text

  hide retry_quiz retry_quiz= the second button, initially hidden label; button text = Retry

  ON THE OTHER

  See retry_quiz

  hide Get_cert

• Using the menu button to show/hide TOC CP7 intermittent

  Hello

  Forgot to mention using CP7, I would add also that it slides that do not work, when the Mneu button is clicked for the first time, shows the button pushed, but on the 2nd time, there is no action at all the...

  I have a problem when the menu with its knock adv to show/hide action button, does not always.

  I went through all the slides in masters and made sure that I have the same settings for each, but on some slides, it will display the table of contents but can't hide after pressing the button Menu again. This is assured, there is no associated transition with the key.

  It works well at every time whebn using the small line up double, but we need the user to use the button and do not rely on these arrows...

  Anyione elsoe had similar problem... ?

  Hi Rod,

  Thank you for that. They are actually custom buttons in our workplace, rather than a usual adobe PlayBar... However, what really strange is at the last minute, I thought copy button and then remove the original button and paste in the copy (don't ask not even why I thought this might work..) but it worked and all is good now...

  Thanks for responding...

  See you soon

• Hide the smart shape on master slide button

  Hi all

  Looks like I have another issue of nag... I have a project (Captivate 6) that contains the FOOTER navigation that I used smart shape buttons... the problem is, I have a few slides with popups... and buttons are still ALIVE in the pop-up window. And because I can't quote a button on smart shape on a master slide, I don't know how to identify it with a tip Action...

  I know that I can go the L-O-O-O-O-O-N-G way, using a different Master and duplicate the navigation on the slide that will give me the ability to appoint the Smart form buttons... I can't HIDE/SHOW them... but the project has 4-8 pop-up windows that would be a large number of buttons...

  So, is there a way to hide/show buttons created on a model of slides?

  Thank you!

  Not possible: objects on master slides do not receive an identification, which means they cannot be used in a fast action (one of my many requests of feature for quite some versions).

  In such a case of use I would not place the buttons on form on the model of slides, but on the first slide and their time for the rest of the project, always on top (if it can be done here?). In this case, they will have a unique ID for the whole project. However, there are a few possible problems for buttons in form with a suspension point. When you use a suspension point for a button shape on the master slide, the break will always happen at the end of each slide, regardless of its duration. This is not the case for form buttons timed for the rest of the project.

• How can I prevent Captivate to advance to the next slide, after the end of the audio and I click on click to show/hide sidebar box?

  I currently have a slide that plays audio.  While usage is listening to the narration that I can click on three different click the boxes with advanced actions to open and close text boxes, I want the user to read the value.  When reading narrative ends and I'll click on the boxes to click to read a text box, it moves to the next slide.  I understand that I may have to replace the box with smart buttons click but I don't know how to stop the progression to the next slide.  I already have a next button that is put on pause until the user clicks.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm on a tight schedule.

  Quickly, I created a sample file, just have a slide with three form buttons that act as the toggles and a next button. The first three buttons break late exactly at the same time and the next button.

  Since it's the slide by clicking the audio stops no audio at all (common misunderstanding). I created a shared action, with the purpose to display and the variable (mine are labeled v_one instead of v_visib) as parameters:

  

  StarOne is what you want to show/hide. You can click on infinite time on each key to show/hide this element. He won't interfere not audio, once he started playing he will continue. When the audio is finished, you can still continue to click. Just click on the next button will advance to the next slide. It's my calendar

  

  No need to rewind the playback head in this case at all.

• Show/Hide - advanced action buttons and images

  So, I thought I had a handle on usage shares advanced to show/hide, but apparently not.

  Here's the scenario:

  -Screen where the user must select one of the 6 options

  -When the user clicks on one of the 'boxes' of the option a check should appear and audio should play

  -All other "cases" should be disabled to avoid audio duplication

  Here's what I did to try to get this working:

  -' Boxes' are buttons, click on success:

  * Success box contains audio that plays (this works)

  Success of the button execute advanced action:

  > hide all other buttons on the slide (it does not)

  > display an image of a check mark in the "checkbox" which has been clicked (does not work)

  > go to the next slide (works, audio from the success box once completed)

  Thoughts? Help! Thanks in advance!

  Hello, unknown fan

  Overlay buttons will not work, so let this idea alone.

  I really want to finish this blog post on audio and widgets. Just an idea and will try to be at the time where I found the time to try something. Why don't you attach audio to an initially invisible object that you show with the same advanced action? This object can be a shape with no stroke and a fill alpha of 0% so that it is invisible to the user. You will have time before the sound can play completely before going to the next slide.

• Captivate 9, sensitive slides on a Mac and a PC publish the slides, timed objects (show/hid) do not shown in the final html5.

  I have some 9 Captivate, sensitive slides on a Mac and a PC.

  When I published the slides, timed objects (show/hide) not shown in the final html5.

  Some slides contain objects such as some graphics (png), the arrows and text boxes that have a period of delay or show that for a given time.

  They work within Captivate when I executed the chronology, but do not yet show in the published code. I tried several different browsers.

  Any idea why these objects do not appear?

  Thank you, I have yet seen that I didn't just look.  Once, he toured. Jim

• 'master-slide show' continually play with without reload/restart on each subpage

  Hello!

  I wanted to create a 'master-slide show' on my masterpage who plays permanently on the 'sub-pages' (sorry, I don't know the English word). the problem is, that the slideshow always restart / reload when I jump to another secondary page. is it possible to just slide show to play continuously?

  Here the site:

  http://Susanne-Haub.BusinessCatalyst.com/

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  By default it would be like each page will load in a browser with a different url, so on each loading slideshow will start again.

  Alternative to go with this goal would be to create a single page with anchor function site.

  Thank you

• Hide/show dynamic Action on the region, not hiding title area

  I use APEX 4.0.1 with topic 13.
  I created a dynamic Action to show/hide a region on my page, but that content hiding as expected, the region remains title. Any idea on how to hide title area as well?
  
  To identify the area to the DA, I use the following method:

  Region Header
  <div id=XYZ>
  
  Region Footer
  </div>
   

  In the DA dom object is now XYZ
  
  Thanks in advance

  Lose the header/footer code, it does not act as a container for the whole region. Use a static region ID as selector of DA.

• Dynamic action - show/hide area based on LOV that returns the ID

  Hi people,
  
  This should be simple, so someone who works with dynamic actions.
  
  I have a LOV based on query below:
  

  select OBJECT_ID, KOD 
    from x_data x;
  
  retuns:
     ID          KOD
  ----------------------------
      492961 BMW
      492964 VOLVO
      492960 MERCEDES
      492963 VOLKSWAGEN
      492959 SKODA

  Agenda: P200_KOD is based on LOV that displays KOD and returns the ID.
  
  On my page, I have also 1 region called TEST_REGION.
  
  I want to put in place a testament of shich dynamic action SHOW/HIDE a TEST_REGION based on the value selected in the order of the day: P200_KOD (LOV). Region should be shown if displayed (KOD) selected ID value begins with '% V '.
  By other words, if following query returns any folder, then the SHOW, HIDE it on the other:

     select *
      from x_data x
    where x.kod like 'V%'
       and x.object_id = :P200_KOD;

  How can I define a condition of dynamic action fires, for article: P200_KOD?
  
  Thank you
  Tomas

  Hello

  One way:

  Create an advanced dynamic action.
  Name: Region to hide
  Event: change
  Selection type: item (s)
  Items (s): P200_KOD
  Condition: Expression of JavaScript
  Value:

  $(this.triggeringElement).children("option:selected").html().substring(0,1) !== "V"
  

  Action: hide
  Fire on the Page loading: true
  Hide all items on the page on the same line: No.
  Action of false: show
  Fire on the Page loading: true
  Display all items in the page on the same line: No.
  Selection type: region
  Region: TEST_REGION

  Kind regards

• Master slide with the scenario, reference, reference active / disable

  I have a model of slides with this little built in purple overlay:

  

  The three icons are smart shape filled with image buttons that play white in the bearing and States out of service.

  I want to use them on slides unguided practice for:

  • Scenario - Toggle text caption. Scenario is checked by default on a previous slide in its entirety, it would be a reminder for the slides, that it applies to (good for several slides)
  • Tip - Toggle text caption. Used when the learner gets stuck, sort of a hint of specific workflow (changes slide to slide)
  • Reference - link. Open a tool of work with step by step instructions.

  I would like to use variables so I could control to show exactly when these rockers are used on each slide, and I guess that I need stocks advanced on my model of slides.

  How can I do this?

  Long ago, I explained a similar workflow in these forums and blog on this subject:

  'Beat the system' - save time by creating advanced Actions (Captivate) - Captivate blog

  It is the workflow, I'd certainly use for the Tip:

  1. create a v_hint of user variables
  2. insert this variable in a text container on the first slide where you need (form or legend, I always mention that, because the shape is much more flexible for the style) and don't forget to adjust the length as high as possible. in previous versions maximum number of characters in a variable used to 256, but Rod pointed out, it is now lower (about 150)
  3. make this large enough text container, so that it can have your longer index and the time for the rest of the project, always on top.
  4. Create the action of the show/hide button that container (have several blog on shape toggle buttons)
  5. Create a joint action or a tip action that must be triggered by pressing enter for each slide where you want the features. It will be quite simple: assign v_hint with «...» ' (text you want for that slide being in the indicator); I would have preferred a shared action on a bunch of advanced duplicate actions because they save on the size of the file, and you can manage the library

  You can use the same approach (with a different user variable) for the script, but due to the limitation of the length of a variable and the fact that you have only 3 different versions, I would argue just to have 3 different, but still timed text containers for the rest of the project and always on top.

  With respect to the URL, I'm afraid you will have to use JS. I think that TLCMediaDesign (David Crawford) posted on this workflow.  Publish to HTML or SWF? There are widgets autour.

• Problems with reset toggle buttons that show/hide captions

  I have a problem with the buttons toggle that I use to show/hide a number of legends about a single slide of the reset. The rocker works very well on the first button when I click on and off to show or hide a legend. A simple click on and watch legend. One click off the coast and the legend disappears. However, if I leave a legend that is displayed and click on other buttons to show/hide the other legends, they do not show or hide in a single click. They require two clicks. It seems that something continues the read head after that first toggle is used until there is a second click. The same thing happens if I reset to enter action. If I click on a caption and leave it in place and move to another slide, it disappears when I re - get this initial slide. However, it requires two clicks, not one alone, to display the legend. I find it very strange; I learned most of my techniques from the Lilybiri blog, but this problem does not occur on his examples. I think I'm missing something obvious, but may not know what it is. Any help is very appreciated.

  

  

  

  Yes, I use Cp6. What I wanted to say about re-use, is that I have different scenarios where a similar script could be used, if your suggestion of a model is a good. My original intention was to write it in a txt for reference. Thank you very much for all your suggestions and links. I'll keep you posted.

• Show/hide the image with audio (audio does not if necessary)

  Then, I ran some tests to see what was going on so I could better explain my problem.

  I have a slide with a picture that has four clickable areas. First of all, the student listen tell me for a few seconds and then is invited to click on the image areas that are highlighted.

  When the user clicks on one of the fields, an image appears and I taped audio on this 'object '. Note: I didn't use the slidelets substitution as the clickable area is hidden by the new image when the image appears on a click. The user will press a close button that is on the image, set with another clickable button to hide the image then select another pop up box. (See image below... you can see the image of forklift under the transparent image gray... This is where the user clicks the highlighted area).

  

  I tried two ways:

  having the image plays on the whole timeline from beginning to end of blade (be hidden with the show/hide button function)... when I do it, the sound will not play at all (I'm guessing that this is because the audio went silently on the first few seconds of being on the screen, so by the time the student clicked the button finished audio).

  and

  Drag the beginning of the image to close the timeline when the user is asked to click on areas of the screen... when I do that, the sound play a bit, but gets cut off after a few seconds.

  If I click on the areas as soon as the blade begins to play (since i KNOW where the buttons will be activated), the audio plays very well which makes me believe my theory that the audio runs just at the moment where the user gets to click on it.

  There is no break on one of the buttons around this period, so I know this isn't that.

  What I am doing wrong?

  Thank you! :-)

  I'm happy to say after hours of frustration, I finally got to work.

  I went and read your blog Lieve on micro navigation and managed to keep the images at the point of the slide where the user is asked to click on them and define the action of tip:

  to display the image,

  hide the other images and

  Use the assign with 705 rdcmdgotoframe

  and added a line to continue so it wouldn't break (if I do this, it seemed only allows only not the last his image clicked / or show the function works because I have an action secondard on the second tab to display the button 'next' once all are clicked).

  I had to do the math, but thanks to your info on your blog, I was able to understand this. I just tested it and it works... so I'm not going to save and close and breathe until Monday when I can run my final tests on the entire project!

  Thank you!!

• Captivate: Using Javascript to show/hide captions text

  Hello

  I want to show/hide a legend of text using javascript. I can't find the way to do it with advanced actions. I don't know if it's because it belongs to a question slide in a pool. Anyone know if this is possible and how this can be done?

  There is nothing wrong with your English - no need to apologize :-)

  I just tested it. Seems to work for me to create a tip action that will show my custom legend if I set a variable of personalized tour. Rather than xplain, I have attached a word with some screen shots doc and an example of file CPTX. File is Captivate 5, but even should work in 5.5
