BUG:  Advanced Actions duplicated when creating NEW PROJECTS FROM TEMPLATE using Adobe Captivate 8.

Need:  CREATE NEW PROJECTS FROM TEMPLATE using Adobe Captivate 8. 
Problem:  NEW PROJECT (.cptx) duplicates the Advanced Actions originally configured within TEMPLATE FILE (.cpt.).
For example: Template file (.cptl) advanced action "_initializeModule" gets duplicated as "_initializeModule1", "_initializeModule2", "_initializeModule3" within NEW PROJECT.  FYI, the original "_initializeModule" advanced action still appears.
MAJOR BUG, what the heck is going on?!?!!!  Planning to deploy this template file to use for multiple courses with multiple users, this WILL cause epic confusion across the board.

Similar problem, think they are working on it as well: when dragging a shared action from an external library to a slide or object event, and that action is using a parameter that was already created for another shared action, there will be a new parameter created which really screws up the shared action contrary to this problem. Tip: for the moment do not drag shared actions from an external library immediately to an event, but drag them first to the Library: Reuse Shared Actions in other Projects - Captivate 7 vs. 8 - Captivate blog

  • Showing GL, PA Period error when create new Project

    Hi All,
    I am facing an Issue while creating a Project through Template, though I have opened PA Periods and GL Periods of current, but still showing following error
    "Cannot copy a budget to a period which is out of the range of system defined periods (e.g. PA period or GL period)"
    Please help me in resolving this.

    Hi
    I assume your template budget has periods within the range dates of the template project, between the start date and the completion date of the project.
    When you copy the template to create a new project, enter the start date of the new project as the start date of the template. If your project start date is different from the template start date, the system will try to more the end date, and may also try to move the budget periods, so those will keep the same lenght, but starting from the new project start date. In those case you might be creating budgets in other periods then the original template budget.

  • IDVD Freezes when creating new project!?

    Hi all,
    When I open iDVD, it give me the main screen, I click Create New Project. The window comes up, but it has trouble opening the stuff inside the window, and does the dreaded rainbow ball.. Never comes out of it. I have to force quit it to get out.
    -for any ppl who want it.. here is a sample of it freezing useing Activity Moniter. http://home.comcast.net/~samkirsch/iDVD.txt
    please help!

    Quit iDVD.
    Locate a file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and get rid of it. iDVD will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash and run a permission repair using the Disk Utility.

  • Can not create new page from template

    I have been working on a new site for the last couple of
    weeks and have created several pages using a basic template.
    All of the child pages of this template still update when
    changes are made to it, however I can no long create new children
    from this template.
    Any ideas as to what the problem might be.

    > This allows me to change any section of the html.
    my guess is that you are opening the .dwt template file and
    doing a "Save
    As". That page is not a "child" page of the template.

  • Create new page from template

    I created a page, and saved it as a template. I want to
    create a new page from the template (creating more pages for the
    same website). When I select file > new > page from template,
    the list contains <no sites>.
    How do I get the page and / or template I already created to
    be in a "site" so it shows up on the list. Couldn't find this in
    the help file.
    Thanks

    So where is the correct location?
    I created the folder for this site when I first created the
    html page. This is the folder I mentioned. This site folder was
    created inside the Documents folder, I believe by default.
    As I mentioned, on the first try, I just let it save the
    template to this same site folder, which is what it suggested by
    default, and it has been there ever since.
    I only created my own "templates" folder as an experiment
    after your first suggestion. I have now renamed it "Templates"
    (upper case T) and the template is still not found with File >
    New> Page from Template.
    Sorry I am not sure if I understand exactly what you mean by
    "A folder in the root of the "local site folder"". Is this the same
    as or different from the site folder I created and saved the html,
    css, and image files to? (which is in Documents) If different,
    where can I find it?
    I searched my system for ALL folders named Templates, and
    found none that I believe could be associated with DW. Is this in
    appdata or hidden location?
    Many Thanks

  • Photoshop CS4  shuts down only when creating new project.

    I've had CS4 web premium since nov. 08 and everything worked fine until the most recent update from adobe.
    I ONLY have this problem with Photoshop cs4: when creating a new project after selecting the aspects (name, width, hight, etc.) when you press ok it shuts down and no error is given as to why it shut down, it just does.
    opening documents that had been created prior to the last update isn't a problem, I'm able to do everything Photoshop cs4 has to offer.
    I can also open a file started in another program and edit them in PS CS4 (ie: fireworks , or AI).
    but for some reason if I want to start a project in photoshop it just shuts down, never used to happen. any clues? any one else have a similar problem and know how to fix this?
    running on windows XP

    I think you mean a new docuement - Photoshop doesn't have "projects".
    Photoshop shouldn't "shut down" - there should be some message about a crash.
    And the most likely causes at that point are OpenGL (try turning it off in prefs) and your default printer driver (try changing default printers).

  • VS 2013 - Settings lost when creating new project

    I am having this is odd issue with my VS 2013 settings.  I setup VS 2013 with all my custom settings and colors.  I can open and existing project and my settings with be there.  If I create a new project all my settings are gone.  I
    backed them up so I can import them and everything looks correct again.  Is there something I need to do to make the settings permanent?

    Thanks for Kulasangar's help.
    Hi heffer86,
    Like Kulasangar's suggestion, the real issue would be related to how you custom settings and colors in your VS IDE. For example, generally some settings under TOOLS->Options->font and Color or color theme like the following screen shot in
    VS IDE, it would be saved to your current VS settings file, so it still have the same feature if you create a new project with the same settings.
    But certain settings just were used for your current projects, I mean that they are not saved to your current VS settings file. So it would change to the previous settings if you create a new project. So you would check the
    real settings file and make sure that which settings are saved to this file.
    Or you didn't enable the settings when you export the settings file, so it would have this issue when you use this settings file next time.
    Best Regards,
    Jack

    I had the same issue then I found out all you have to do is to set the default view to List before opening any previous or new project and it worked, credit goes to this user below who found the solution.

    I was able to resolve by workaround:
    1. Closed all open applications
    2. relaunch Finder
    3. run  sudo find / -name ".DS_Store"  -exec rm {} \;
    4. this removes all  .DS_Store old files on the computer
    5. launch finder and set default view to "LIST VIEW" as shown here:http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/ss/Setting-Finder-Views-For-Folders-And-Su b-Folders_2.htm

  • "Multiple Validation errors" message when creating new project in   FCPX

    As a test I have now managed to change the file format from older quicktime file to .m4v and  import into FCPX.  I had to use Handbrake to change the file format to .m4v. If a free software can do this then why can't the $300 FCPX - and allow me to import directly?  This would save me MANY hours of extra work!
    But then, when I try and edit this - first trying to create a new project  I get the message "Multiple validation errors occurred"  The same message even if I try and custon settings rather than use the default
    Does this mean that after all the work and hours it took me to tarnscode the file format, import and then render etc - I will be unable to use FCPX - to edit this footage?

    Update on trying to create a new project - and getting "Multiple Validation errors" message
    I quit FCPX and tried to use iMovie to make a clip to send to you.  Decided against this - and so I opened FCPX again
    To my surprise there were now over ten projects - as every attempy had appeared!  This is bizarre - why did they not show up when I tried to create them first? 
    So, I had to delet most and just use one.  This appears to be working as a project and is allowing me to edit clips into it.
    It will be a reall bummer though if I have to do this every time I need to create a new project!

  • RoboHelp 7 crashes when creating new project with files from VSS

    RoboHelp crashes when I create a new project and choose to get existing files from Visual Source Safe to load into the project.  Does anyone have a solution to this problem or a suggestion as to why this may be happening?  I'm attaching the errors associated with the crashing.
    Also, we have a very large Help system (985 topics) which compiles into a 46 MB chm file.  Is there a maximum suggested topic size (per topic) and a maximum suggested number of topics per project?  Could this be part of the reason RoboHelp is crashing?  We've always had a large Help system since we started using RoboHelp several years ago but the crashing is a more recent problem.
    Thanks,

    Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.8.5)

    Try these general troubleshooting strategies.
    Use this free app to trash the preferences even if you have already done it. This should be the first thing you try when any problems occur.
             http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    Shutdown FCP X before you do it.
    2.  Trash Layouts folder. With FCP X shutdown, hold down option key and select Go>Library>Application Support>Final Cut Pro  .  .  .  trash the Layouts Folder.
      3. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
      4. Trash FCP X using this free app and reinstall it.

  • Missing contact when "create new contact" from email or number

    I am having a really strange problem on my iPhone and think it will be a fun mystery to solve. Please help me!
    It is currently set up with google so that my mail/notes are using gmail IMAP and my contacts/calendars are using Google Sync. So far it's been working pretty well except for all the known many bugs and issues (please fix these, google!). I have no other email, calendar, or contact accounts set up (not even syncing with my computer).
    I received an email from a friend who I did not yet have a contact for, so in the email header I clicked her name and chose to "Create new contact." As usual, the email address was already in the "email" field, so I just edited her name and filled out the "company" field and pressed Done. The "from" field in the email updated to show that the contact had been added to my phone and that it recognized the email as being from her.
    Now, I go to add a number to her contact and when I navigate through my contacts list, her name is no where to be seen. I've tried searching through the contacts by using the search bar at the top of both the Phone and the Contacts apps, but nothing shows up. However, when I compose an email and start typing her address, it recognizes her as a contact. Even weirder, I just tried the entire phone search spotlight feature, and it found her contact right away, as if it were any normal contact. When I click on it, it brings me to her contact page, which I cannot edit, and when I press the little left arrow "Contacts" in the top left of the screen to go back to the whole listing, she's not there!
    When I go to add contacts using the little + symbol in the top right of the phone app, it works normally and the contact appears as usual. But every time I try to do a new contact from email, this happens! Choosing to "update existing contact" works fine, though. So I've been forced to create an empty contact with her name in the Phone app, and then add the email to it.
    Please help my find where in my phone this contact is residing, and how to bring it out so I can find it. I have tried force-quitting the relevant apps from the multi-task dock, and even turning off and on my phone, but to no luck.
    Update: Just tried creating a new contact from a phone number I've previously dialed and the same thing happens! Where are my contacts going?? This is so weird!
    Not sure if this is just a google sync issue, but I figured I'd post it in case other people are having similar issues
    Device: Apple iPhone 4
    Carrier: AT&T
    Country / Language: USA English
    OS: iOS 4

    I recently experienced a similar event. I was adding from Contacts "+" button on the iPhone 4. I completed entering the data & hit "done". I went back to add a photo. I hit "done" & went to test the result. No new contact. Search did not find it. Tried two more times with different contacts. Same result.
    At one point, the "All Contacts" directory went blank. Nothing. Seconds later the contacts returned. Scary. I rebooted the iPhone. No new contacts but old ones fine.
    I then entered with an old iPhone on OS 3.2 same data. Showed quickly via MobileMe. On the new iPhone added photo the photo. All OK. From an iPad, OS3 I did the same. Added photo in new phone. All OK. I added from the new iPhone including photo. All OK.
    The iPhone IOS4 reboot may be the answer. Wish I had tried older systems before reboot.

  • How To Add Additional Fields When Creating New Contact From w/in Mac Mail?

    Hi there. When in Mac Mail and clicking on contact information provided within an email, we are able to either (1) CREATE NEW CONTACT or (2) ADD TO EXISTING CONTACT (by clicking on the arrow next to a phone number, address, etc.). If I choose "Create New Contact," how can I add additional fields BEFORE clicking on "Add to Address Book" button in lower right corner? Let's say, for example, I know this new contacts URL or company. (Currently, I am creating the new contact from within Mac Mail and then going to Address Book and finding the contact, then editing, the adding the additional fields, then saving, and then going back to Mac Mail. This all takes time.)
    Note: When creating a new iCal event from within Mac Mail, we can click on Option/Alt key when selecting drop-down arrow...and this will allow us to add additional information. The same feature isn't available for address book???

    I have the exact same question and problem. If there was a way to automatically open the AB entry after "creating new contact" this would solve it.
    Thanks for any suggestion

  • Name does not override correctly when creating a Division from template

    I am still having a problem when creating Divisions with the WebServices API.
    Namely, when I create a Division based on a Template (in order to have a given default thumbnail image and description, etc) the Name parameter (the "title" of the Division, which appears next to its icon on the main site page inside the top level Section boxes) is never set correctly. The Name I specify for the Division never overrides the default.
    In my example, I try to create a Division with name "Food Science and Human Nutrition." It is based on a Division template with handle 1911155332. The Name of that Division template is "Robot Division" and the ShortName is "RobotDivision".
    I am sending the following XML via Web Services:
    <ITunesUDocument>
    <Version>1.1.3</Version>
    <AddDivision>
    <ParentHandle>1945525657</ParentHandle>

    </ITunesUDocument>
    The Division is created and no errors come back. However, when I look at the site, the Name of the newly created Division is "Robot Courses" (not "Food Science and Human Nutrition" as I want). The ShortName IS correctly set to "FSHN" as I specified in the XML.
    Incidentally this was part of creating a Course "FSHN 101," the Course is also based on a Course template, but it creates with the Name and ShortName as I desire and there are no other problems - I can log into the Division and Course as expected.
    *QUESTION #1: Is anyone else out there ever having this problem?*
    *QUESTION #2: Is there anything obviously wrong in my XML?*
    I have tried this multiple times, always with the same result. Creating Divisions not based on a template works (but for various reasons we need to be able to use templates). I have been unable to edit the Name after the fact with MergeDivision either.
    Our campus Apple contact sent in a ticket about this, but the response from Apple was to post here in the forum, which is monitored. I am unsure if I should post questions of this sort here in the Administrators Forum or in the general forum, for this one I will try both.
