Cp6 - Creating a TOC button (without Flash widget)

Hello everyone,
I am working on a elearning template that doesn't use a time slider bar so, navigation is done through the use of back/next buttons.
I am also employing the Captivate TOC as a overlay. The problem I am having is that the default trigger to open the TOC is not only intrusive in it's default top-left corner location (affecting our branding), it is also a potential source of confusion for learners (to find it).
Apparently, there is a way to implement a TOC button on the master slide (without using a widget) in Captivate 6. Can someone please tell me how this is accomplished?
---------------- FLASH WIDGET IS A LAST RESORT
As a last resort, I will consider a Flash widget for now. Apparently, there is a good one here: http://www.cpguru.com/toc-button-widget-for-adobe-captivate/
The problems:
1) We want to avoid Flash, if possible, because our elearning content will eventually need to be outputted as HTML 5.
2) CPUGURU's widget source is not available and it is not in AS3 code (AFAIK). We will need the source for further customization.
Does anyone know how to open and close the TOC without a Flash widget?
Thank you,
Doug

Hello Doug,
Do you have the playbar enabled? In that case, if you set the TOC as overlay there is 'TOC' button which appears automatically in the playbar. Are you looking for something else?
Thanks,
Vish

    While the Note 4 is a reasonably large device it still falls into the phone layout bucket. We need this layout to function on very small screens some as low as 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. These sorts of devices don't have the space for a full toolbar.

  • How to Create a Back button in Flash

    Hi all,
    I need to create a back button for my flash app. It doesn't
    need to be connected with Browser. It just need be able to remember
    what frame they were viewing, and bring them back.
    Is there any event I can use for this? I made an variable
    called "visited:Number" and change it on every frame, but this
    won't work. Once the user enters a new frame, the original visited
    number is replaced by current already. I don't know how to hold
    that number, before they leave the current frame.
    Can anybody give me little clue/direction please?
    Thank you...

    Hi
    I believe that you should look at the Forms functionality for UCM . Under Content Management - Web Form Editor will show up the editor where in you can add buttons and attach functionalities to it . With UCM 11g this is not available thus you might need to use AJAX to build the requirement .

  • Trying to create Large Play button on Flash CS4

    Hello,
    I am trying to create the following: (using someone elses post from another board)
    "I am wondering if there is a way to hide the FLVPlayback skin until a certain event happens. Let me explain.
    I have an instance of the flvplayback component in my movie. I have the player skin set to "autohide" and "autoplay" set to false. Instead of having users click on the play button of the skin to start the movie I have incorporated a larger play button in the middle of the screen. The set back here is that when a user mouses over the movie to click on the larger play button the flvplayback skin appears as well.
    I'd like to basically tell the skin "Hey don't appear on mouseover until AFTER the large play button is pressed." What code would I need for this in Actionscript 3?"
    I am curious if someone can teach how to embed a regular .swf movie file into the
    "example" code, which was also posted here
    (http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=323702)
    I have very limited coding skills and very much appreciate the assistance.
    Rod

    You are looking for the visible property I believe.
    At the beginning of your code, set:
    myFLVPlayer._visible = false;
    to set it invisible (replacing "myFLVPlayer" with your components name ocourse)
    Then, onRelease of your button, set:
    myFLVPlayer._visible = true;
    to make it visible again.
    EDIT
    I just looked at your code in the other forum, and here is your onRelease function fixed:
    video_mc.video._visible = false;
    video_mc.bigButton_mc.onRelease = function(){
    video_mc.bigButton_mc._visible = false;
    video_mc.video._visible = true;
    video_mc.video.play();

  • IWeb with flash widget not posting correctly on Firefox on PC

    I created pages on iWeb, with flash widget. It looks great on Safari and Firefox on the mac, terrible on firefox PC. Basically on Firefox PC, the iWeb created site that should be in front of the flash file, gets behind it when the page loads, so the page only shows the flash file.
    Can anyone help? I have tried to figure out the HTML and CSS, without success.
    Here's a link to a page that's fine on the Mac side, bad on the PC:
    www.franckgoldberg.com/Design/AR_Media.html

    Why would it work on the mac, and not on the PC?
    The kind folks at Firefox and Flock should know that.

  • Creating a minimize and restore button in flash.. help :D

    hi,
    is there a way in flash to be a able to create a minimize and a restore button in flash,, and
    is it also possible to remove my title bar?
    tnx in advance..

    Oh thank you so much!! I have spent days looking for this and could not figure out why the code did not work. My professor has been out sick so he has not responded to emails since the end of last week. Now one last thing is that when I click test movie my polygon object is in stop mode meaning it is not moving. I have to click play for it to move. Is there anything I can add to my code so that when I hit test movie and the test window pops up the polygon is automatically playing without me having to hit the play button first?

  • I am trying to create a button in flash that will display 4 separate images at the same time when clicked.  I can't get the images to stay on when I take the mouse of the button.  I need the actions script code to make this happen.

    I am trying to create a button in flash that will allow the user to click on the button and 4 separate images show up at the same time.  I can get the images to appear when I click the button but they will not stay on the screen.  I need to know what code I use to make the images stay once the button is clicked, then I need to know exactly where I place that code.  It does not appear to be possible to add the action code to the buttons layer since each time I add a new layer I just get another "up" "over" "down" and "hit" line.
    Thank you in advance
    AP

    It is not clear how you are trying to realize this from your description.  If you are trying to create this within a button symbol it will not work.  Explain your approach and if there is code involved, show what you have so far.

  • Create a picture for a Button without using a custom control

    So I enherited the system I am currently developing. One thing the guy did before me was put pictures on all of his buttons. I have no clue how he did this as I just starting using Labview several months ago. Now I want to add my own buttons and want to replicate how he did it.
    All the solutions I have search for use custom controls to attain their desired effect....well apparantly the guy did it a different way and I can't figure out how. I posted a VI with just the buttons he made in it so you can see what I am talking about.

    Becasue you can make the custom button and apply it and never save it. If you right click on the button you should be able to got to the advanced and then to customize and still be able to edit the buttons that are on your code.
    You will have to make new pictures to import to your custom display. The only other way to do this would be to make your button transparent and add a picture behind it.

  • How to create links without using widgets

    I am using a vertical menu via the widget, but want to create a submenu without using the widget. btw, the rollover feature is fun

    To create a sub menu without using the sub menus in the menu widget you can combine the menu widget and the tooltip widget to create your menu.
    There is plenty of examples and widgets that do what you are asking if I understand correctly at the Muse exchange and places like musegrid.com.

  • Robohelp 10 unable to create next/previous buttons in new TOC folder

    Suddenly I'm unable to create next/previous buttons in new TOC folder. I create folder, add pages, go to Browse sequence editor, create new Browse Sequence, generate Multiscreen HTML & when it's through no browse sequence in shown ie no next/previous buttons. Help?

    Hi there
    Silly question here. If you double-click the Responsive recipe in your Single Source Layouts folder, then click the Content section in the left panel, is/are your Browse Sequence(s) selected?
    If not, perhaps that's the problem?

  • Custom TOC button in Captivate 4?

    Hi all,
    I'm using Captivate 4 with imported PowerPoints. I'd like to use the Captivate skin's built-in TOC without using the playbar (and its available TOC button). However, that leaves me with only the teensy little grey TOC tab/slider thingy in the upper left corner to open/close the TOC, which doesn't seem to be large or distinct enough to get my users' attention.
    I'd like to add a larger custom TOC button that opens and closes the TOC overlay from the slide footer, but can't find anything to point my button at so as to make that happen. Any suggestions?
    If this has been addressed already, apologies, I didn't find it.

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    In Captivate 5 you can change this icon. For CP4 I believe someone created a widget, am looking for it later on and will be back when I find it.
