  • Buttons underneath a Scrollable Frame

    Hi,
    Is it possible to have object states/buttons underneath a scrollable frame?
    I want a title page that is swiped to the side revealing buttons underneath...
    Visually I can set it up, but as soon as you've swiped the title page to the side you can see the buttons but can't touch them.
    Any work arounds?
    Thanks.

    This is normal, the interactive overlays will respect their layered order. Especially If you cover another object completely as with your scrollable frame.
    Why not add the buttons to the left or right of your title page design and group it as one object that is then cut and pasted-into your scroll region. That way when you swipe away the title page it brings the buttons into view.

  • Hiding a button underneath a scrollable frame

    HI there, I'm looking to have a button underneath a scrollable frame that is revealed and becomes functional when an image is swiped away from the top level.
    Is there a way to tap through scrollable frames or include transparent elements within the scrolling frame so that I can swipe away my image to find a button underneath?
    Cheers, Alex

    Can't be done. The area taken up by that frame is live all the time.
    You could try it with an MSO instead of a scroll. That would work.

  • How to add a button to an existing frame?

    Hey everyone , this is a GUI question for a project I am doing in school.
    Basically, I have created a frame that has 3 JPanes, top, center and bottom. Here are the declarations:
    this.add(northPanel,    BorderLayout.NORTH);
              this.add(SYBoard, BorderLayout.CENTER);
              this.add(southPanel,    BorderLayout.SOUTH);          
                    When I try to add a button to the top panel, nothing is happening. This is my first time with GUI, so if anyone knows what is wrong, I wold highly appreciate it. Thanks so much:
         private void startGame() {
              String playerName = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your name");
              System.out.println(playerName);
              ScotlandYard.frame.northPanel.add(new JButton(playerName));
              ScotlandYard.frame = new SYFrameWithImages();
              ScotlandYard.frame.update();
              this.repaint();
         }               as you can see, i have tried updating, repainting, etc, but nuthin' is happening.

    In the future, Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    After adding/removing a component from a panel on a visible frame you need to do:
    panel.add(...);
    panel.revalidate();
    panel.repaint(); // generally only needed for a remove

  • Buttons inside of scrollable frames

    I have a series of photographs that act as buttons that go to a page number. In one article, I've grouped together these buttons and put them inside of a scrollable frame. They work fine.
    Now, in another article (both of these articles are part of the same FOLIO) these buttons just go to MSOs. The MSOs have pan and zoom enabled (a lot of interactivity going on). I've cut and paste these buttons inside of a frame and made it scroll, but the buttons are non functional. Why are buttons functional in one frame and non functional in another?

    An update to the DPS tools that addresses the issues with iframe/HTML and buttons in release 25 is now available. Updated tools can be downloaded by following the link for the appropriate InDesign and OS version at http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_dps_install_en.

  • How can I add invisible buttons to a scrollable window?

    I've made a scrollable window that basically scrolls some
    text and images. I'd like the images to link to another site but
    I'm having trouble getting the invisible buttons to scroll with the
    images. The text and images laid out in Flash. That is, I'm not
    linking to an HTML file.
    Here's the code I'm using for the scrollable window, which I
    got from a tutorial online. The buttons (at the bottom of the
    script) are located in a separate layer masked by the "maskedView".
    Any insight would really be appreciated!
    thanks!

    Try this code.

  • Scrollable frame is text: anchored object in text can not be button?

    Following example: A textframe. With an anchored object (group). Paste textframe in other frame to make scrollable frame (pan only). Select anchored frame in already pasted into textframe, make button for anchored object (go to state).
    Does not work, button does nothing (and yes a converted it to a button after the paste into other frame as last step).
    Not possible?
    DPS v18

    If you want the button in the scrollable frame to control an MSO state, the button/scrollable frame needs to be part of the MSO. It is an InDesign limitation that buttons cannot control videos, audio clips, or MSOs unless they're on the same "level" in the document.

  • Scrollable frames. Buttons not working.

    Hello.
    I have a problem with buttons in the scrollable frames.
    I have a slideshow with a thumb's. Each thumb consist of MSO (non active icon and active icon) and clear frame - button to that MSO and to slide foto. The thumb's grouped and placed into the frame with horizontal scroll overlay effect.
    That frame placed into another frame-pull out tab, which have vertical scroll effect. And when I pressed the button, slide fotos changes correctly, but button MSO not working.
    See files from dropbox --  https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rsbf1jto3a39jug/IVcQxaYJOW
    Sorry for my english. I need help very much.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I understand that I can use two 'states'  of the buttons. And I tried it. But. Buttons renditions are raster images. And on the retina display we had bad quality. My target was to create vector buttons. With good quality on both displays.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi (again),
    It seems that you built your stuff in a very complicated way.
    First, try to make simple!
    You mixed MSO and buttons functions. Useless and unfonctional.
    Yous should use only button panel, with two different 'states' ('Normal' and 'Clic').
    See below (no MSO function used at all for the button):

    Use the layer panel to easily select the objects you want to modify.

  • Button in Scrollable Frame not working

    Hey, I read lots of other questions concerning this topic but could'nt  find a sollution
    I am working with CS5.5 and the newest version of the Folio producer. I have a page witz a Video, some buttons and a scrollable Frame where are some pictures inside. These pictures ae grouped together and then anchored inside of the frame. Scrolling these images works fine, but when convert the pictures into Buttons and and link them to a random website nothing happens when I click them.
    Is it only possible to test this on the iPad? At this moment I can only test in the Content Viewer Deskop Application. I have already tried everything...putting layers to the front or background, defining the pictures as Buttons before or after putting them into the scrollable frame...nothing is changing...
    Now I am despairing a bit. Hope somebody can help me!

    Yes yes, I know. But makes it a difference with this issue? Problem is: I have the iPad I use for testing only from while to while and I dont get it back before monday. Not a very good starting point to build a folio, I know...

  • Reset Scrollable Frame

    Is it possible to include a button within a Scrollable Frame that resets the frame back to it's initial setting? I'm wanting to include a "back to top" button at the end of text in a scrollable frame.
    For a big workaround, I duplicated the frame, made a 2-state MSO, and the "back to top" button was set to "Next State," and the MSO switch naturally reset the frame so the top of text was back. But this seems a bit messy...

    I think you pretty much nailed the workaround. Pretty clever.

  • Button with sound in scrollable frame

    I ran into a problem. If i add sound to a button inside of a scrollable frame the ‘on click’ action of the button doesnt work.
    Outside of a scrollable frame it all works fine.
    Can somebody help me ?

    Hi Bob, thank you for reacting.
    I want to use the ‘onclick’ function of a button for the visual effect and a sound for the experience.
    But somehow the onclick effect doesnt work.
    I am using a picture as a button and on click the button go 50 %
    the button has a navto function

  • Hyperlinked button in scrollable frame not working

    Hi all,
    I'm working on a multi-article folio. The first article includes a scrollable frame that contains a group made up of one image and two buttons.
    One of those buttons works correctly; that is, it is a mailto that brings up an email client when clicked.
    The other button should open a web page in a separate window. However, when I click this button, I get the following error message:
    Cannot Open Page
    This page cannot be opened because of a error.
    The error is "A server with the specified hostname could not be found." (-1003).
    The odd thing is that another button in the second article that links to the exact same URL *does* work correctly. That article does not use scrollable frames; instead, the button is on top of an image sequence. I have very carefully copied and pasted the URL from the button that does work to the button that does not work. No joy.
    Here's a screenshot of the first article that shows the non-functioning button outlined in a blue frame:
    I am using InDesign CS6 (version 8.0) and Folio Builer
    12.2.4.20120611_m_691037 8.0.7.21 .
    Your help is much appreciated!

    It happened to me too and the only workaround was that I copied the hyperlink text and created a separated text box and pasted the link.
    I then made that textbox "fot frame to content". After that I created a button out of it and assigned the URL for it. After all this I pasted the button in the text as text object.
    Here is a screenshot. This text was within scrollable frame

  • Bug - Button inside scrollable frame

    Hi,
    I got a button bug in my folio.
    I made a scrollable frame with buttons inside it and the buttons controls a multistate.
    When I tap the buttons they don't perform the action, it just change the color (click state).
    It only performs the action when I tap again the same button.
    What can I do to fix this issue?
    Thanks.

    Hi Bob,
    I am using ID CC 2014 and testing on an iPad.
    In my article, I made two objects a MSO and a scrollable frame with some buttons inside it.
    My scrollable frame has buttons only and allows the user to slide these buttons horizontally.
    The buttons has an action to change the states of my MSO (go to state).
    The problem is when I test this folio on my iPad, If I tap any button, the state of my MSO keeps the same and the button goes to the Click State.
    I can only access other state of my MSO clicking a second time on the same button.
    So the button keeps on the Click State and my MSO change to the State that was scheduled.
    What can I do to fix it?
    Thanks.

  • Hyperlink button inside scrollable frame

    Is it possible to put a button that scrolls with the content inside a scrollable frame ?
    I've tried with the hyperlink overlay and several ways with the button overlay, also tried to define the button action after defining the scrolling content (Bob suggests this in a topic from some months ago) but nothing seems to work, it's if the button doesn't exist.
    When putting the folio online to check it on the iPad I always got a 'upload failed network failure' message but when clicking the try again button the upload restarts and at the end I got the 'content uploaded' message. Don't know if that could cause the button troubles.

    I've had no problem getting buttons in scrolling frames to work so without seeing your files, there's not much I can offer besides making sure the links are created properly.

  • Scrollable Frame solution for EPUB Fixed Layout

    Hi,
    I have found a solution (or, rather a hack) which allows us to create scrolling frames for EPUB Fixed Layouts.
    You can find the exported EPUB, as well as my InDesign file on my Dropbox: EPUB scroll.
    This solution has some weak points and has only been tested in iBooks on an iPad with iOS 8, but here's how it works:
    Create two text frames (one as big as your text requires, and one which will be the container [tip: make the container a bit wider than the text frame])
    Cut the big text frame, select the smaller container frame, and Edit->Paste into
    Right click on the container, select Object Export Options, choose EPUB and HTML and enter "subchapter" as epub:type:
    Open a text editor and create a new CSS file. For CSS code, see below
    Export as Fixed layout EPUB. In the export dialog box, select the CSS tab and add the previously created CSS file
    Done!
    CSS code:
    div[*|type = "subchapter"] {
    position: relative;
    div[*|type = "subchapter"] > div {
    overflow: auto;
    As you see, steps 1 and 2 are essentialy the same as for creating a scrollable frame folio overlay.
    It’s not perfect, and this solution is just a proof-of-concept, but it should get you going.
    An obvious problem is that we use basic HTML scrollbar, which is not being displayed in e-book readers such as iBooks on the iPad. Hence, the user has now idea how long the scrollable content stretches. This could probably be solved with a more complex, JS-based solution.
    Also, the gradient feather at the bottom (which is intended to create a "fade-out effect) seems not to export well. This one should be easy to solve, placing another rectangle with a gradient in it. But I’m not sure if transparency exports well, and haven’t tested it.
    Feel free to use, and improve, this hack!
    Thanks,
    /Jacob

    Thank you Uwe,
    I look and hold you aware of your solution in an environment EPUB

    @Papo – then I would suggest not a scrollable frame, but an MSO you can click through showing the whole text.
    1. Do some text frames the same size
    2. Thread all the text frames to one story
    3. Align the text frames
    4. Make a MSO out of it:
    The text frames are still threaded and text can easily flow between them.
    5. Do some navigation buttons to control the MSO states:
    "Go To First State", "Go To Next State", "Go To Previous State" etc.
    Later you can change the text (add or remove, do different formatting) flowing in that story through the states.
    A very flexible solution. Ok, it's not a scrollable frame, but something like that…
