Make button appear and pause slide after rollover slidelets have been rolled over?

Hello,
I am trying to use advanced conditional and standard actions in order to prompt a user to rollover 5 rollover slidelets before a "continue" button appears. I have attached variables to each rollover slidelet, created the button and marked it as invisbile, and have created a contitional action but I'm not sure where to attach the action:
Am I using an extremely complicated method to do something so simple? I have tried various methods, get close, but then the project continues to the next slide when it should pause until the continue button is clicked even though the property "Pause project until user clicks" is checked.
Thanks for all of your help and let me know if there's any additional information I can provide!

Hello,
I have described that work flow multiple times, mostly with clicks instead of rollovers but slidelets have two events, one of them is the rollover itself. So you'll have to trigger the conditional action with that event. But as Rod points out, the mimicked standard action (first decision) should focus only on that rollover and assign the value 1 to that boolean variable (don't increment, has no real sense). Then the condition will have a AND combination to check all the values, and show the button only in that case. You will have 5 similar conditional advanced actions, one for each rollover event. But since they will be almost identical (only the boolean variable label has to be changed), duplicating and editing that action will not take a long time. If you were on CP7 you could use a shared action, but duplicating will even there be the quicker solution IMO.
In this old blog post you'll find such an example (witth clicks as events)=

  • Can you make buttons appear "on success" on quiz slide?

    I'm not an expert Captivate user and don't know Javascript, so please excuse my ignorance if this question seems strange.
    I have a Captivate 6 project with several quiz slides peppered throughout the entire file. In other words, the quiz slides are not grouped together. Each slide, including the quiz slides, has a forward button and a back button.
    I would like for users to move forward and backward through the presentation in a linear fashion as they like, and this is working well. However, it would be nice if users weren't able to skip answering the quiz questions. I would like the buttons to appear after the user has answered the quiz question correctly, and then I would like the buttons to stay on the slide thereafter.
    Is this possible? Do you have a Javascript resource I could use for the "on success" action, or what other solutions do you recommend?
    Thank you!

    Hello,
    When you are talking about the default buttons Back and Next that you find on question slides, you don't have much control over them. As you probably did see they do not even appear as separate objects on the timeline. And I doubt that Javascript could realize what you want.
    Try first to understand how the work flow of question slides is designed:
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate
    You can drag the Next button under the Clear button (see blog post), normally Next during a Quiz is not needed, since the second step (Press Y or click on the slide) will move to the next slide.
    However the Back button is a more tricky button if you really want to have it. Maybe, didn't check it out, try to hide the back button to the user (make it transparent without a stroke) and have an image appear on top of that button after the first step on the question slide. The invisible Back under the image will remain active, it even has absolute priority over other objects.

  • Background image from one slide appearing in all slides after and I can't remove it

    Hello,
    I'm modifying a course created with Captivate 5, in Captivate 7 and for some reason the background image from slide 35 is appearing in all slides after that one and I can't remove it. The most interesting thing is that when you look at the slides in the film strip they look different (like the original) than the one on the work area which contains the background image I'm trying to remove (screenshot below).
    Any ideas or comments?
    Thank you.

    Hi Lilybiri,
    Thank you for your prompt response. That was it!!!! You are awesome! I tried so many things and I don't know how that setting changed to "rest of project". Great thing to check next time.
    I greatly appreciate your help.
    Have a great day.

  • Making a Smart Shape a button will not pause slide

    Hi.
    I am not sure what I am doing wrong but when I use a smartshape as a button (I am selecting the Use as Button checkbox), the slide will not pause like it does when I insert a button.  Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hello Jeff,
    Maybe this post will provide you with more details, will explain shortly: http://blog.lilybiri.com/why-i-like-shape-buttons-captivate-6
    Normal buttons pause by default at 1.5secs, and you can uncheck the pause, change the timing in the Properties panel, Timing accordion.
    Shape buttons do not pause by default. You have to check the Pause in the Timing accordion:
    But they have a lot more advantages, as you can see in this screenshot, they can be shown for the rest of the project, which is impossible with any other interactive object.

    The iPod crashing when editing a photo is a known bug in iOS 5.1.1.
    For the other problem.
    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

    At some point in the past, I synched with Gmail.  Looking at my Gmail contacts, I can see that it's missing the same contacts I'm currently missing from the iPhone.  Is it possible that I may have done that sync back in October 2009 (but not since) and then somehow recently over-wrote my contacts content with whatever was there?  Is there some setting I could have tripped to make something like that happen?

    Since this is the second computer you've had this problem with, I recommend you look for answers on the iPhone forum. My thinking is it is an iPhone issue rather than a computer issue (unless it is some software incompatibility).

  • Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past and have tried a hard reset but it can no longer find the printer.

    Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.

    In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever.

  • HT204380 I have done all the above. I am in Germany using an iPad 2, trying to call an iPad 2 in the UK. My IPad goes through the call and then times out. I have been on the phone to the receiver at the time so know they had their iPad on.

    What do you mean that you can't "call" an iPad in the UK??  That doesn't particularly make sense.  You can email to an iPad or text them, but the iPad is not a phone, so how do you expect to "call" them??
    Hope this helps

  • Decommission Exchange 2010 after all mailboxes have been moved to Exchange Online

    Currently very confused on what to do.
    I'm looking to migrate mailboxes to Exchange online using a Hybrid deployment with Dirsync. The users have multiple email and domain addresses. They are moving away from their SBS 2011 and Exch 2010 server. They have an AD and File and Print server. Once
    all mailboxes are moved and mx records are changed and everything is running smootkly. I would like to then decommission SBS and Exch 2010 box and still use DIRsync
    Few questions
    Once I remove Exch 2010 what wont I be able to do. Cant find anything specific online
    Will I still be able to create a user in AD then login to Exchange online and assign a license then
    the user would have mailbox
    Edit a user and add smtp email address.
    As I don’t have many users should I rather use PST migration or will I run into the same problems.

    Yes, you should move the arbitration mailboxes - they are organizational mailboxes, not mailbox database mailboxes.
    Make sure all Exchange resources and operations hosted on this server have been moved to your Exchange 2013 system before you remove Exchange from this server.  If you try to remove Exchange (in either the GUI or the command line) and something is
    still using this server, you will be alerted that something is still using the server and will be told what it is.
