Overlay Creator - Slideshow crashes InDesign

Hi Folks,
another Problem with DPS, not sure if its because of OS X Lion, because it wasn't before. The second Im clicking on choosing Folder with pictures in the Overlay Creator ->Slideshow everything crashes...
Anybody an idea? Trashing prefs didn't help. Creative Suite 5.5

Of course this doesn't help you ;-) but I am experiencing exactly the same issue. Have tried reinstalling also with no luck.

    Anyone else having difficulties using the Slideshow panel in the Overlay Creator? None of the buttons or check boxes are working?  Does someone have a handling for this?

  • Overlay creator crashing InDesign

    Hello,
    I've been working with DPS in InDesign CS5.5 with no problems. About five days ago I updated to the current Folio Producer Tools and Folio Panel Tools for CS5.5 and have had no problems. Today out of the blue, every time I try to open the Overlay Creator panel it crashes InDesign.
    I am on a Mac and I have rebooted, trashed InDesign preferences, uninstalled the tools and reinstalled, and even went back to an earlier version of the Folio Producer and Folio Panel. I tried opening the Overlay Creator in a new blank document and it still crashes the entire program.
    I'm tearing my hair out and would appreciate any new suggestions of what I might try.
    Thank you,

    Hi Dave,
    I'm not sure how the server problems would affect opening the Overlay Creator -- I'm not trying to upload anything or trying to do a preview -- the simple act of trying to open the Overlay Creator extension is what is crashing InDesign. Doesn't that extension reside on my computer?
    Thank you,

  • InDesign CS6 Missing "Overlay Creator" entirely?

    Hi all,
    I've recently downloaded the trial version of InDesign CS6 as well as the DPS Desktop Tools (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5377&fileID=5010) and I'm following the "Get Started" tutorial here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite/articles/digital-publishing-suite-hands -on-tutorial.html
    I've followed the instructions, installed InDesign CS6, Installed the tools yet when I open the example project in the tutorial I have no overlay creator option form Window > Extensions
    Can someone help me please? Point me in the right direction?

    In Indesign CS6 it is called Folio overlays. Go to Windows>Folio Overlays.

  • Indesign 5.5 wont load overlay creator

    This image shows what Overlay Creator looks like when I try to add something, specifically a video. It wont give me options to do anything with it, even tho the Media window does recognize it and allows me to create the poster from the video, overlay creator wont, and the folio preview wont play the video at all.
    I tried deleting Indesign preferences already (ctrl+alt+shift) but nothing changed.
    Are there any steps to follow which Im not aware about?
    I am adding the video from the Media window.
    When I save it to pdf interactive I do see the video but not in my folio preview at Content Viewer
    Thanks

    That worked Amazingly Tomek!!
    Thanks a lot!!
    Im having problems now with adding pan and zoom images, wont give me the option to adjust pan and zoom on images, is there a default image (im using jpg) file to be used only?
    Is there a page with a list of files accepted by overlay creator?
    Thanks again!!

  • Overlay creator not allowing me to Check options on "slideshow"

    Hey there,
    I've grouped the images into a MSO as you're supposed to, but when I go to apply the options in the Overlay Creator, the check boxes flick on but then go straight off - I've tried restarting indesign to see if it was a software fault, and I'm about to restart the computer to see if that amends the problem, but it's never done this before so I was wondering if anyone else had run into this problem?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Indesign CS5 vs overlay creator

    if i want to make a image seqance and hit the folder icon in de overlay creator my indesign cs5 force closes.
    what happend i was in de pre release of DPS

    You can't use earlier plugins. If Extensis hasn't updated them then you'll need to upgrade or live without it.
    FWIW, I wrote a review of Suitcase Fusion 3 for Creative Pro: http://www.creativepro.com/article/review-extensis-suitcase-fusion-3

  • InDesign CS 5.5: Overlay Creator preview issues

    I'm currently working on creating a tablet publication pitch for a client and followed the directions to install the Folio Producer tools compatible with CS 5.5 and everything seems to be working... except for the preview option on Overlay Creator and any other preview option on my computer. I uploaded the document to test it on Adobe Content Viewer and it worked, but that's really clunky to test my interactivity. Is there something I need to do to make it I can preview my folio on my computer?
    Thanks.

    Ask in the ID forum.

  • InDesign Overlay Creator Pane

    Currently, I find seven features in the overlay creator pane in ID 5.5. Are more features available in ID 6?

    Ok. Thank you. We are currently investigating other app publishing software and
    want to know how the others stack up against the DPS. ie. App Studio allows you
    to do page flips but wondering if that is something you have to create yourself in
    order to execute or already part of the software. Looking for as much engaging interactivity
    as possible from software I am considering.
    Thanks for your input.

  • OVERLAY CREATOR NOT RESPONDING

    My Overlay Creator Panel is not reponding. When I try to select or click atributes any of the effects, Video, Object States, Web content Ect. nothing will apply. For example the Auto Play button for video, web, or slideshow
    Ive used the panel and produced Viewer Apps before and it just stopped working. I have reinstalled that tools. Restarted machine, and indesign, everything seems to be up to date. I have tryed disconnecting from servers and still nothing can be selected in the Overlay Creator.
    What can I do to troubleshoot to solve this so I can get back to producting interactive overlays.
    Thansk.

    Indesign restart does not help
    but ... removing the old preferences and reinstalling the DPS tools solved the problem.
    Thanks for the hint

  • Where is the "Scrollable Frame" on the Overlay Creator panel?

    I can't seem to find the "Scrollable Frame" on my Overlay Creator panel and now I'm caught in the middle. Is there anything that I missed? I can only see the following:
    Hyperlink
    Slideshow
    Image Sequence
    Audio & Video
    Panorama
    Web Content
    Pan & Zoom.

    I know you mean the other Bob, but the purpose of that is to have something to align with the edge of the scrollable content.
    Without the dummy content you wouldn’t be able to position the content. Try doing it without that and you’ll see the problem.

  • New Overlay Creator tools (Pullout Tabs)

    Hello DPS community,
    My question is in regards to the new tools available in DPS. I have created my folio for my senior degree project over the last few months. I have a 3rd generation iPad that I am previewing my project with the new version of Content Viewer.
    I would like to use some of the new tools available in the latest version of the Overlay Creator, mostly for the new pan & zoom features like those Pullout Tabs Adobe has shared with us on the DPS tips app. However my Overlay Creator panel must not be up to date because it does not display these new functions like Scrollable Frame. How can I update my Overlay Creator Panel so that I can take advantage of these new features? Do I just run an update on InDesign or do I have to download a new version of the Overlay Creator? Also will updating the Overlay Creator Panel negatively effect my overall project in any way? I am a little hesitant to update because everything works well as is and I don't want to break it and go into freakout mode. Has anyone had any experiences updating to the new tools, any problems while previewing or creating on InDesign. I am waiting to hear back before I attempt to update.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ryan

  • 2 Overlay Creator questions (audio/video)

    I have a video file placed with a controller selected. It works fine in the Content Viewer, but not on the iPad. When tapped on the iPad, the image just flashes on the point of contact but does not activate the video.
    The other issue regards the Overlay Creator not recognizing placed audio or video files. I've placed both audio and video files (some from the Adobe tutorials from the prerelease). When selected, the Overlay Creator does not apparently register them as valid audio or video files since I can't access the OC dialog boxes.
    Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong or possibly missing?

    When your creating new overlays.. do you have an InDesign object selected first? Alot of people forget that the overlay panel shows extended options of base indesign objects.  Example you have to create a hyperlink object before you can see the hyperlink options.  Also make sure your updated to folio producer tools 1.01
