Why my smart form buttons only react once per slide?

Hello

New to Captivate. Using Captivate 8 on Windows 8.1.

I created a set of intelligent form buttons and they are set to appear throughout the project and on the top... so they are always visible.

Why they only respond once to a click on each slide? More importantly, how to respond to any number of clicks on each slide?

I want to use it to perform an action advanced throughout the project and I want the user to be able to trigger the advanced action of many times on each slide.

Thank you

Pete

If the button is pause, and you trigger a tip action, you will be able to click on this button as many times as you want.

Problem with a form button timed for the rest of the project is that the interruption occurs at the same time on each slide! Take a look at my old article about the form buttons.

  • Why my "Reset form" button didn't reset all fields?

    I use Adobe Acrobat X Pro and added a "Reset form" button on my form to fill out. It clears all fields, despite the fact that all the fields are selected to be cleared in the properties of the button. I deleted and added the button several times and I have the problem on a recurring basis. Any idea?

    What happens if you use the JavaScript code within the mouse event to the top of the button:

  • Smart form button on the slide in Question of the Hotspot

    Is it possible to use a button on smart on a question slide form when you click on it that Captivate does not the key under the screen is a potential area of hotspot?

    Not at all, replied same question recently. The entire slide is considered as being clickable in this case, and since everything on a default question slide is on top of the stack, the entire slide will cover the shape button.

    If you want a question of access point where you control everything, do not use the issue of the default access point. You can easily create a question of access point with shapes like the clickable hotspots with the big advantage that the hotspots in this case need not be squares/rectangles.

  • Disable/hide the smart shape buttons

    I use Cp 8.0.1.  I am trying to disable and hide the buttons of smart shape to go to the next/previous slide until a specific time or a situation that happens.

    Smart shape buttons still work even if disable them you or hide them, even if you do not see them. Is there a way to do this?  Thank you.

    Hello

    Are you talking about intelligent form buttons that exist on a slide Master?

    If you don't want a smart shape on a regular slide button to be 'available' to the point of a while, you just configure so that the starting point is when you want on the timeline, as shown below:

  • Smart form withdrawal button problem (it is not so cold)

    Would be useful if someone has a solution for me, but I think it's more a problem with Captivate Smart forms in general.

    I like to use active forms in the form of buttons especially now you can have different States for the normal, over and down. The problem is that the active forms when used as buttons shrink, which in some respects is good because it gives the user some type of visual feedback of interactivity and I think that it is the intention then Smart forms as buttons have been introduced. But here's the problem, if you place your cursor on the edge of the button shape and click shape retracts and is no longer under the cursor. When you release your mouse button does not trigger any action that was attached to this button

    I'd be happy for someone to report a quick fix that I am missing but I have not found all the messages about the present. This problem makes me see again my principles of interface design when you use Adobe Captivate and active forms in the form of buttons to make sure that the user clicks in the active area of the Smart button shape. We are talking only about 5 pixels, I think, but if you have effects such as glows and shadows on the button and then visually you give the user more opportunity to meet this problem.

    Any whoooo, if someone can tell me, «oh, you just need to click on this option...» "and hey presto no shrink more so GRAND and I apologize for this rambling post

    Hi Rod,

    Yes, it was one of my first thoughts, but I quickly discovered that although the new States are great, they are still very limited in this first version of new feature and you can affect only the background and outline of shape, what got me thinking and found a workaround.  It won't work if you don't have a stroke that is already applied to your shape and you use a fill sold.

    First, I added a line of px 1 to the normal state of the smart shape and it's the same color as my filling. Then I activated the idle state and added a px race 4 of the same color.  "Hey Presto" it worked and the smart shape does not decrease at all.

    You MUST have a stroke, applied to a Normal State to work properly, or any size you do the low width of line of State, it will not increase in size correctly. Strangely, it has increased only very slightly and only about 2 px regardless of what size you defined in your inactive state.

    So that kind of works, but unfortunately I used a random variable of different smart shape using images, gradients and colors buttons different diseases. Close, but no cigar.

  • I have not a shape option customize in my photoshop CC.  Why is this?  The only form I can do is rectangle.

    I have not a shape option customize in my photoshop CC.  Why is this?  The only form I can do is rectangle.

    You have to press on and hold more than a few seconds to see the drop other forms or use the shortcut shift - u.

    If you have already done this. Try to reset the shape tool. Select it and in the bar options, right or control-click (Mac) on the icon, choose Reset tool.

  • Active forms appears only if placed at the beginning of the timeline or not more than 1.5 sec. ?

    Why is my Smart Forms (form of the legend) appears only when published if it is placed at the beginning of the timeline or Timing > appear after moved to no more than 1.5 sec 6 Captivate?

    You have another object on the slide, such as a button, click on the box, or smart shape, converted to a button?

    I suspect that you have a button on this slide, which is put on pause to 1.5 seconds by default. Everything that is on your timeline after this point does not appear when you preview or publish, because the project will pause to 1.5 seconds.

  • Object names individual all changed in smart form in the Properties window

    I'm fairly new to Captivate that maybe this isn't a problem and more a matter of learning. But, the objects that I use as the buttons are all now called ' Smart form ' in the properties panel and timeline. I'm having a problem to find a way to identify the correct object for target with actions. The only time where I see there's real name/object id are always there when I'm trying to build a fast action.

    I use 8 Captivate on Mac 0SX 10.10.3.

    Thanks for any idea on this issue.

    I suspect that not looking to a slide, but a model of slides? Objects on a slide are never any ID.

    For objects on normal slides, you can change the generic name in the properties panel as before.

    And this name appears in the timeline panel

  • Save a reader extended PDF form read-only

    Prior to this announcement, I searched for hours in forums and the internet on how to get there, but I can't find the solution.

    I created a simple form in Acrobat and saved with player so he can be saved by my colleagues in Adobe Reader, once informed extended attributes. The problem is now they need to send these customers but in an unbearable state. I don't know if this is possible, but I'm hoping for a simple solution if someone could help me, thanks.

    Create a button somewhere on the form and add the following code to the mouse event to the top:

    // Set these fields to read-only
    getField("Text1").readonly = true;
    getField("Text2").readonly = true;
    getField("Check Box1").readonly = true;
    // continue for any other fields
    
    // Hide this button
    event.target.display = display.hidden;
    

    Use only the actual field names that you use in your form. Users should be sure to save as a new file, and I would say that they put the blank form read-only via the file system so that they don't accidentally overwrite it.

  • Why "towards the high following" only it displays 20 songs?

    This is less of an issue that needs resolving and more a curiosity I had for a while.

    In iTunes, why "towards the high following" only displays a maximum of 20 songs instead of the rest of your playlist?

    There is no 'show more' button or option to increase the amount of somewhere, so I don't think it's just an arbitrary amount.

    I don't think that it's one thing to user experience either. Watch 'Recently played' WAY more songs, so there is no reason not to do with «To the top next»

    It might have something to do with the shuffle function? Like, if only about 20 songs are mixed and added to the queue until the next at some point, to make the application run faster?

    I am very interested to hear your thoughts on this subject.

    Nobody here knows why Apple did something and the speculation is not allowed.

  • My keyboard is not save when I try to use a button more than once.

    My keyboard is not recording that I use a button more than once and it's causing problems with typing and use / the overall experience from my computer.
    If I try to go back an entire word, it will be only a matter of erasing and then the keyboard does not recognize that I use the back button back until I have use another first. Essentially, I am unable to use a button more than once, unless I hit another key.
    This problem does not extend to the buttons of the mouse and trackpad.
    This problem is not just with the keys to the letter, with all the control keys.
    I use a HP Mini with Windows XP Professional.

    Hi Danielle,

    The first two thoughts that come to mind are supposed to check and "fiddling" the following:

    1 Control Panel > keyboard > Ketboard Repeat Delay and/or keyboard repeat rate.

    2 panel > Ease of Access Center > facilitate the use of the keyboard > disable filter keys or to adjust the applicable rates, if you want to use them.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
