Is there a way to show/hide a group of objects that will work in html5?

I consider myself to have a fairly decent understanding of captivate and its functions but this recent issue has stumped me.
I have a button with javascript attached to it that runs a typical if loop: (pseudo code to follow)
if(variable = 1){
show "group" and variable = 0; 
} else{
hide "group" and variable = 1; 
Now normally, I would do this with single images, etc, and it would work fine.  You click the button (the image being unticked where it says "visible in output") and the image shows itself, then you click the button, and it hides.  Very standard stuff.
My issue, is that captivate seems to let you name a group you make....but they have not given you any control of that group.
Problem:
I want a way to show and hide a group of objects by only clicking one button (when published to html5).
I want to only have to reference the group and dont want to need to write a separate line of code for every single component that makes up that group (assuming the solution has to be coded).
Is it even possible to control groups like this within captivate?
Thanks!

There is an adobe video that I think shows how to do exactly what you are asking.
This is the video link:
Lightbox-style Menu in Adobe Captivate 6 - YouTube
At about 10min 50sec, it goes over creating a group from a number of single elements.
At about 12min 30sec, it shows creating an action that turns the whole group on and another to turn the group off.
When I did this myself, I used just one action that toggled the group on or off, but they show it as two actions. The idea is the same.
I hope that helps. Apologies if I mis-understood the issue.

  • Is there a way to show / hide email campaign newsletter opt-in form based on current opt-in status?

    We have a secure zone with email campaign opt-in as both a part of the registration form and as a stand alone form for users logged into the secure zone.
    We want to only show the opt-in form to users who are not already registered for the campaign, but cannot find a way to do this via modules / tags / liquid / API.
    I have searched the forums and cannot believe this is not possible. If not possible, it should be put on the list of development requests.
    Is this possible and if not, any suggestions?
    The best workaround I can think of is to use a CRM field to track campaign opt-in status and then js/css or liquid to show / hide the form.
    Thanks.

    You won't be able to have a page showing 24 charts per host.
    I really think that it is a bad idea to create a group per host, just to have the ability to add many charts.
    The maintenance effort will be a big penalty.

  • Is there a way to present two or three radio buttons that will open up new fields based on the radio button pressed?

    What we want to do is ask our new clients their preferred method of billing: Credit Card, Invoiced, ACH.
    If they choose Credit Card, credit card info fields will show up.
    If invoiced, Billing Address field shows up.
    If ACH, bank account and routing number fields show up.
    Is this possible to do?

    Yes, this is one of the features of web-based forms in FormsCentral. You will use conditional elements (show/hide logic) to allow certain elements to hide or display.
    See this page for more info: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/formscentral/help/edit-field-properties.html#conditiona l_form_elements
    You create all of your fields: Credit Card, Billing Address, and Bank routing and account number fields, and then only have them show up as a condition of which of the radio buttons the user selects.
    I hope this helps,

  • Is there a way to create a link within a document that will pull text from the document and open it up in a separate text box within the document?

    I am trying to link sections of an form within a PDF back to instructions within the same PDF document.  Instead of having this jump back to the page within the document I would like for it to pull up the identified text within a separate pop-up text box on the same page where the form lives.  Is this possible?

    Hi gwebster,
    Instead of linking back to the instructions page, may be you can use tool tips or comments so that the instructions can be seen besides the text.

  • Is there a quick way to show/hide conditional text to create a book?

    I have a set of files that represent chapters. These will be used in two books. Is there a way to show/hide conditional text from the book file rather than going into each chapter and setting show/hide for the book I want to create?

    WIth the book file open and selected, select all the files in the book (Ctrl+A), and apply your condition settings. Update the book.

  • In Address Book, any way to Show/Hide groups from view in the "ALL" view?

    I have groups of contacts in Address Book (v4.0.4) that I plan to use in the future, but right now having to wade through and past all of their individual entries when I am scanning my contact list in the "All" group view. Is there any way to Show/Hide these sub-groups with a visibility check-box? The sub-group name would still be there in the group list (to remind me that it exists and make it visible if desired), but I would have a lot less clutter and scrolling the rest of the time.
    I know I can export groups in vCard format and re-import later, but a lot of my original custom fields for the contacts are lost in the process. Is there a 3rd-party plug-in? (Apple, are you working on something like this?)

    Hi Mike, My Address Book app is behaving correctly (maybe I'm not).
    I'm just saying there are times when I want to see "most" of my total collection of contacts, maybe just for the purpose of creating new groups at particular time and want to see at one time the pool of contacts I have to choose from. There are groups that I very seldom need to use, so it would be a way of putting those groups (and their contacts) into "cold storage."
    I also may want to do searches from among most of my contacts, but also I may want to eliminate certain other particular groups from that search pool. That is the reason for wanting to do the "Show/Hide" thing. It is a way of displaying a logical "ALL" minus "SOME", which is the basically same thing as displaying the logical "UNION" of more than one group of contacts at one time. Can this be done?
    Is there a way to open alternate address books, from within the same Address Book app (and logged in as the same user)? That would allow me to truly isolate my work list from my home list.
    One answer to this occurs to me: I could create different log-ins on my PowerBook, and build the different variants of the Address Book I might want into each login and use Fast User Switching to get into each list of contacts. That seems like a lot of extra work . . . and logging in. Any suggestions?

  • Preview 5.0.3 keeps hiding my text annotations, forcing me to find them 1 by 1 and double click on them to show their text, is there a way to show all?

    Somtimes, Preview 5.0.3 will hide my text annotations, forcing me to find them 1 by 1 and double click on them to show their text. After clicking on the Pen icon on the sidebar, i can see what slide numbers they are on, and have to go through 1 by 1 and double click them. For 200 slide classes, this becomes very annoying, is there a way to show all? or just to prevent it from hiding them in the first place?

    And to answer the tecnical aspects of your post in detail:
    --I want to know how to "see" what he has privately browsed
    You can't.
    -I want to know how to "see" what he has deleted.
    You can't.
    --I  want to know if being his IPhone 5s and Ipad 3 are synced, is what I have found on the Iphone (**** sites) but they are NOT on the Ipad, so does that mean he browsed privately, but forgot to click on "private" on the Iphone?   --
    What is browsed on one device has nothing to do with what is browsed on any other device. If you see something in a browser history in the iPhone, then either he didn't click "private" or didn't clear the history on that device.
    I also want to know if I synced both of our IPads, will what he looks at thru safari privately or not show up on my IPad Air? (most likely not, but I need to ask)
    No. Again, browser history is not synced to other devices.
    If he's surfing and either using Private Browsing or clearing the history, then there's no way you can see what sites he's visited. You'll just have to decide how to deal with that from there.

  • Is there a way to default the monthly calendar display so that the current day always shows on top?

    Is there a way to default the monthly calendar display
    so that the current day always shows on top? ie, I want to always be able to see what's in the future 3-4 weeks, not what's in the past 3-4 weeks. The default monthly display is archaic--only allows you to see through the last day of the month. Suddenly today
    is Oct. 30th, and I have a ton of projects lined up in November, but because I haven't been scrolling down every day, I haven't been aware of them every day. I realize there are other tools in Microsoft to help me stay on task, such as reminders and such,
    but it would be helpful if I could always have the current day display on top of the monthly view so I can quickly scan what's coming up in the next few weeks. 

    Thank you!
    Right, I already have it in Month view. My question is a little more specific--I'd like for the current day to always display at the top. For example, today is Oct. 31st, so the current day is at the bottom of the calendar since it is the last day of the month.
    I can view everything in October that I've already completed. What I can't see are the future weeks because we haven't hit November yet. I'd like for the current day to always display at the top of my calendar so I can always see what's coming in the following
    three - four weeks (whether they're a part of that month or not). I've been to other forums trying to find the answer, and have come across the same exact question from frustrated users--but there seemed to be no solution. So I'm posing the question myself
    in this forum. Do you know if this is possible? What I found from other forums is that Outlook defaults to a physical 'desk' type calendar format--so just as I'd use a paper calendar at my desk, I wouldn't be able to see the following weeks unless I either
    flip the page to that month or I come to the first day of the next month, thereby tearing the the old month off and now only able to see the current month. That format is just so...paper...and archaic! Essentially I want the calendars to loop so it doesn't
    even really matter what month it is--I just always want to see what lies ahead without having to scroll down. With our being in the Technology Age, I'd assume this is a logical expectation, but we may be stuck with the replica version of the paper-desk-calendar
    format until Outlook programmers add this Technology Age feature in newer versions.  
    See, this month kind of messed me up because I have so many projects for November that start tomorrow and next week, but I haven't seen them until this week. I would have been better quipped--at least expecting them--had I been able to see all of those projects
    since last week or the week prior.  
    If there is no solution to this answer, would you know how I can contact Outlook to provide feedback? I'm guessing a newer version is on its way...
    Thanks again in advance!

  • Is there a way to show 2 videos at once?

    Is there a way to show 2 videos at once?

    Welcome to the forum.
    What version of PrE are you using?
    What OS version are you running it on?
    The answers to those questions can be useful in giving you specific instructions.
    For general discussion, the answer is yes.
    Now, how do you want to display the two Videos, such as side-by-side, with each taking up 1/2 of the Frame, or in some other configuration?
    Basically, what you are talking about is PiP (Picture in Picture), but exactly how you will need to set things up will be dictated by the version of PrE, and then exactly how you want those two Videos to display.
    Good luck,

  • I'm in a multi-page document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    I'm in a multi-page Pages document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    Not on my document. I have a 7 page document open. The "flashing vertical bar" is at the top of page 3. I have the thumbnail view showing. I click page break and two blank pages are added to the end of my document. I have to scrool thru the pages to see that the 2 pages were added as they do not appear in the layout view... I'm not sure if it is inserting a "section" as it adds two blank pages.. But I am clicking on "INSERT PAGE BREAK".. So guess there are still a lot of bugs to fix..
    Thanks again

  • Is there a way to show the end dates of the previous month stand out?

    is there a way to show the end dates of the previous month in bold or make it stand out? so 30,31 and 1st of this month don't all look the same? For example the 30,31st get a regular text since they are a part of the the last month and this month gets bold dates? Its hard to read the dates anyways.

    Is there a way to show Custom message in Outlook Mail read Inspector Window same as When a File is opened in Protected View.
    If we open a Document from Untrusted location,the file is opened in Protected mode and a Red Message bar is shown below the ribbon for Excel,Word apps.
    Can we show this type of similar message bar with custom Message in Outlook or any other Office App.

    Are you displaying an MSG file? Keep in mind that Outlook creates a temporary copy in one of Outlook folders, so strictly speaking your are not looking at a file.

    Hi, I just started a new movie and the program is running very slow. Is there a way to clean up my iMovie program so that it goes faster? Please help.

    There is nothing you can do with iMovie program itself.  Slow response in usually due to a shortage of system resources (CPU, RAM and disk space).
    How much free disk space do you have on your boot drive and what is the capacity of the drive?
    You can check memory utilization while running iMovie using Activity Monitor (in Applications/Utilities).  What does the Memory tab show for Swap used?
    Are you running many other processor-intensive applications a the same time?
    If you have a lot of events and projects, it will help a bit to hide the ones you are not using by moving them from your iMovie Projects and iMovie Events folders into an enclosing folder so iMovie doesn't load them.
