Add a hyperlink to animated button created in Edge.

Hello,
Is there any way to insert an animated button I created in Edge into Muse and add a hyperlink to it. The roll over and roll out work perfectly when inserted into my web page, I just can't attach any actions to it. Thanks.

I'm attempting to do exactly this, and when I preview the Muse site in the browser, I get a page not found reply.
As a test I've rigged up buttons in Muse that go to the exact same page, and they work perfectly.
When I click the link, this is added to the end of the url.
assets/design-page-animated-menu/logo-design.html, when the folders for assets, and design-page-animated-menu don't exist.
This url seems to be generated somewhere in the export/preview process, but is not the url I directed the Edge Animate link to. It is simply directed to logo-design.html which as far as I can tell should work, as both pages are in the same folder—when exported—with no subfolders involved.
Where is this longer url being generated, and is there anyway around it?
Edit.
Upon researching this further, I see that even though the muse pages are all in the same folder, the page that Edge is creating—that is being displayed on the Muse page via an iframe—is in it's own folder, and is therefore unable to see the pages I was linking to.
I see that as mentioned above, it's just better to use absolute urls, and that they just won't work in testing.

How to control a YouTube video with buttons created with Edge Animate?

I am able to embed a YouTube video by doing:
var tubeCont = sym.$("tubeCont");
var youtube = '<iframe width="'+tubeCont.width()+'" height="'+tubeCont.height()+'" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OCbrZvmLY0o?enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen ></iframe>';
tubeCont.html(youtube);
I have some buttons that go to another position on the timeline where a different object is shown. if the video is playing, it will continue playing even if the user cannot see it. Hence, I want to pause or stop the video.
On the button clcik event I have tried:
sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("youtube").$getSymbol("player").stopVideo();
sym.$("youtube").$("player").stopVideo();
youtube.$("player").stopVideo();
sym.getSymbol("youtube").$("player").stopVideo();
sym.getSymbol("youtube").stopVideo();
And other stuff, but I cannot make it doing waht I want.
Any suggestions?

Yes, I tried tubeConf, and it doesn't work either.

Adding a hyperlink to a button

I am rather new to Flash and working on a project where I
would like to have internet window popup after someone clicks on a
name. I have tried scripting the button so it says on release get
url....., but I wasn't able to get that to work. I think I might
not be writing the script correctly. Could anyone show me the
correct way to add a hyperlink to a button so that it will pop up a
window after someone clicks on it?

Creating an Animated Button

HI
I am new to flash. So i am trying to create an animated button, using a Movie Clip.
1. I create a Rectangle with a fill.
2. I convert it to a Symbol (Movie)
3. Double Click on the graphic to create it's on Timeline.
4. Why do i then need to convert to a symbol again?
It will not animate unless i convert that timeline button again.
I will now add a behavior, i think i am OK there...
Thanks in advance...

When you converted it to a movieclip. it already had a timeline. In step 3 you would be accessing that timeline, not creating it. Whether or not you need to convert the rectangle to a symbol (inside the movieclip) depends on what/how you intend to animate. Inside the movieclip the rectangle is the raw drawn item you started with, not an object that you can control except possibly to do a shape tween. If you plan to tween the rectangle, such as fading it or moving it, then it needs to be converted to at least a graphic symbol.

Everytime I hit the button to add a folder it says CANNOT CREATE A FOLDER AT THIS TIME

Everytime I hit the button to add a folder it says CANNOT CREATE A FOLDER AT THIS TIME. I've already created several folders but now this comes up. I signed in and out a few times to see if that would change anything.

Finally got to the store to see what was going on. I didn't do it. My previous carrier was still holding my number even though it was working before. Verizon called and got it released and problem solved!! Thanks!!

Please add a "link" or "share" button to replies / answers for easier referencing and linking.

Currently, the only ways to link to a specific reply or answer are:
Hunt through the poster's activity page and look for the link to the post in question, or
Inspect the post's HTML, extract the ID from the enclosing <li> tag, then manually construct the URL by adding it as an anchor to the top level URL.
Example: https://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4fb9d481-741f-49ea-9059-ff1757ead511#b7e0c275-0645-4c3b-a314-480cb89ef04c was
constructed using method 2. See that link for a discussion related to this topic.
These both stink. A forum, especially one as full of information and as frequently cited as this one, really ought to have an easier way to link to specific replies.
Please add a "link" or "share" button (or something similar) that generates a URL that links directly to the post. Perhaps it could go down next to the action links (reply, quote, etc) or over near the vote button.
If one exists, I apologize but I have not been able to find it (and at least one moderator - the one who replied in the example link I just posted - is also unaware of it). This forum has been around long enough that I'm a bit surprised it does not have
this yet.
Thanks,
Jason

Sorry, not possible.
I want to correct myself. There is an old "hack" that still seems to work, which is to create a link to a file, but instead of pointing it to a file you point it to a folder. But Acrobat only lets you select a folder when you create such a link, so how to do it? Create a Word document with such a hyperlink and then use the PDFMaker plugin to convert the file to a PDF. This side-steps the Acrobat limitation and gives you a link to a folder, which when clicked will open it in Windows Explorer.
As I said, it's a bit of a hack and it's possible it will stop working if Adobe ever decides to block it, so use it with care.

Can I add a hyperlink to a stamp in acrobat pro ?

I'm working with blueprints in pdf format and I have created stamps to place on the drawings. I want to add a hyperlink to these stamps to link to another file or document. I can do this by "overlaying" the hyperlink feature. But I really want to be able to save the stamp with the hyperlink intact so I can reuse without having to go through the additional steps. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance, idtwalt

Hi,
An alternative to consider.
Typically, a Stamp incorporates an image.
Consider using a Button.
A Button can show text, an image, or both.
A Button can be given an Action.
The choices for the Action are many.
The Action could be to go to another PDF, go to a named destination in another PDF, some specific view at some designated part of another PDF, or it could be to execute an Acrobat JavaScript.
This alternative approach permits your use of specific images and actions.
A "template" PDF could hold the inventory of Buttons.
Have it opened while working on another PDF file. Use copy-paste to select and insert the Button; then, position it.
Yes, adds time to the work flow.
However, it provides the ability to let a user "link" to a different PDF.
It becomes a question of the relative value of providing the "link" for all future users.
As George points out; a Stamp provides no "interactivity" so its use precludes providing "added value".
Be well...

A few questions on making animated buttons for a website Nav

Hello, I have a few questions on creating some animated buttons for a nav.
There are 2 actions I want to trigger on moue over.
If I want to use a static (PNG) image that I created in Photoshop for the actual button, can I use that? I want to smoothly slide button down on mouse-over and slide back up on mouse off. If I push part of the button off the "canvas" (sorry, this is coming from a Photoshop guy) will it disappear in the final animation? Another way to put that is, if I put an animated element off the white area, will it no longer show up in the movie (.swf) when it's published?
For the second part; you can see a bit of what I want to do if you look at this website's top Nav: http://www.photoshopsupport.com/index.html
I need the "light" above the button and it's going to be on another colored <div> so I can't set one solid BG color for my flash document. But I want to achieve the effect of the "bar" lighting up above the button and the actual button sliding down upon moue over.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Regarding this button problem mentionned by kglad, it is easily overcome with a little trick.
I call this the undesired "jumpy button". Your button starts to hesitate down-back-down-back quickly, like it's a bug, and then it settles.
What you could do is create a simple sprite or movieclip containing only a simple shape, whatever the color, put it on top of your button's graphic, change this sprite/movieclip's alpha to 0, then add your mouse events on this invisible "target" instead of your graphic. So, when you mouse over, you have the graphic move, not the invisible "target".
Sometimes, for this invisible target, you will be using a movieclip, not a sprite, so you can easily add your own properties on it.
Example:
var graphicBtn:Sprite; // your png
var targetBtn:MovieClip; // your invisible target, created with code or not
targetBtn.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
targetBtn.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, graphicBtn.width, graphicBtn.height);
targetBtn.alpha = 0;
targetBtn.mygraphic = graphicBtn;
targetBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver);
targetBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onOut);
addChild(graphicBtn);
addChild(targetBtn);
function onOver(event:MouseEvent):void
TweenLite.to(event.target.mygraphic, 0.25, {y:40, ease:Back.easeOut});
function onOut(event:MouseEvent):void
TweenLite.to(event.target.mygraphic, 0.25, {y:0, ease:Cubic.easeOut});
So you see, you can have only one function (well, 1 for over, 1 for out) used for all your buttons. You can add as many properties you need on your movieclip to make that one-function flexible.
Here I used GreenSock's tweening engine, but use the one you prefer (Here, I am moving the graphicBtn in y for 0.25 second).

Possible to add a hyperlink on a T/F question slide?

Greetings,
I'm delivering a Captivate 5.0 course in Adobe Connect Pro which is recording completion on the last slide through a True/False question slide (a one-question "Quiz").
However, I want to add a hyperlink to the Correct Caption that appears after the user submits the answer. (I'd also like the Captivate course to close upon clicking the hyperlink, but I'll settle for just the hyperlink actually going somewhere.)
I see that the hotspot, button, & slidelet tools are disabled on this question slide.
I've looked for widgets or some way to run javascript, but I haven't found anything.
What am I missing? How can I add a hyperlink to a question slide?
Thanks in advance,
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl
Normally adding a Hyperlink is simple. You insert a Click Box and link it to the URL. But as you likely have discovered, you cannot insert a Click Box on a Question slide.
So what options do you have?
Well, you could visit Lilybiri's blog and learn how to build your own Question slide using basic tools and Advanced actions in Captivate. At that point the slide is just like any other and you may then insert the Click Box object and link to the URL.
Or you could create a single slide Captivate project that is sized really small and contains nothing but a Click Box that carries out the action of linking to the URL. Then publish that as a SWF. You would then be able to insert the SWF into the Question slide. I'm not sure how well that will actually work in action, but I've done it before without issue. Like anything, your own mileage will probably vary.
Cheers... Rick

Help with adding a hyperlink to a button?

We have a simple little site we built in Catalyst and everything works great. The only problem is that we cannot figure out how to add a hyperlink to one of the buttons in the animation. We simply want to be able to click on the button and go to another site (the client's Facebook page specifically). Can anyone provide some insight? Thanks!

How do you add a "top of page" button to an iWeb page?

How do you add a "top of page" button to an iWeb page?

Two solutions:
The Easy One:
Create a Form (which will be the button) and add text to it or choose a picture from iphoto. Now give the form/picture a hyperlink to the same site. So now if you press the button, the site will refresh and start at the beginning/top
The advanced way:
1. Publish your site on the web (not just local). Copy the URL
2. Now create a Button like displained in the solution above. As Hyperlink you'll now have to set external site and paste the before copied link AND add the following at the end of the url: #widget0
3. Add a html widget to the top of the site.
4. The widget's content should be <a name="anchor"></a>
5. Publish your site again on the web and look wether it works.
This way won't work, if the created site is linked as an iframe.

What happens to the rendered animated buttons on sub-menus

I am on a 3GB of memory MacBook Pro using Encore (CS3). Here is a description of how I have produced a working DVD...so far 3 out of 5 DVDs I have tried to render have worked.
ANYWAY...seems that Encore implodes when I try to render the same project more than one at a time. Encore chokes and I am back in the MAC OS.
HERE is my main question...every time it blows it seems to blow away the RENDERED ANIMATED BUTTONS on the secondary menu. SO each time I try this again I have to re-render the buttons taking about 1.5 hours. Why do I have to re-render...why aren't the rendered 2nd level menus SAVED.
To make it clear...after I rendered the menus...previewed...saw the buttons are animated...SAVED...try to write a DVD Disc from the Current Project...succeed...try to burn another DVD...it aborts (why...I have no idea)...I empty trash...bring up Encore again...try to preview the secondary menu...NO ANIMATION there so have to rerender and start all over.
I have been reading about compatibility of DVD disc, computer players and DVD players...what a PILE...without all the techies our there we can't make a dependable environment to create, burn and play DVDs...these companies should be ashamed...all they are doing is producing a whole bunch of frustrated producers (or lack of producing producers).
Can anyone shed a light on my problem!?!?
Thanks, --bill
p.s. Are there better forums than here at Adobe? Seems I don't get many if any replies to queries.

Bill,
A couple of questions, mainly to make sure that I understand what is happening.
1.) There are two files (an audio and a MOV), that show in the Orphanage, when you Check Project. Do they appear there BEFORE you Check Project, or only AFTER?
2.) Do they appear BEFORE in your Project Panel, or only AFTER you Check Project?
3.) Since they are Orphans, I assume that you do not intend to use them in this Project - right? Were they ever in the Project (Imported as Assets, or Timelines)?
4.) Was this Project started fresh, or did you modify an existing Project, to create it, say using a Save_As, etc.?
5.) If they were not Imported into this Project, were they Imported into another Project, that is/was being worked on coincidental to this one?
6.) Can you find these files on your system? Where are they located?
If 1.) is After and 2.) is After, then your Project might be corrupt. The Assets/Timelines/etc. are linked to the Project by XML. This can become corrupt for many reasons, most are often unknown - power dip, or hardware issue on Save, etc..
Two ways to check this theory, is to start the Project from scratch, and see what happens. Another is to use a freeware program, XML Wrench, and run the Project file through it. Aside from pointing out broken links, and other problems, it should also allow you to search for these files names in the body. Save a copy of the Project file, so you will have it untouched, and then remove any lines, that reference these files. Save_As (new Project name) and open that in Encore. Being on MAC, doesnt every data file have a finder file, associated with it? Could this finder file be cross-linked, in some way, to your real Assets?
It could be that there is a hardware issue, and this causes the links to the Rendered files to become broken, and also to link to files, that should not be included. Any other strange things with your system lately? I do not know the MAC folder/file structure, but can you do the equivalent of Windows Check Disk? If so, set it to find lost clusters, or whatever MAC calls them.
Also, being on PC, I do not know what utilities might be available for your OS, or what other programs might be causing a problem. On PCs, other DVD burning software, especially if their packet-writing applet is installed, can cause havoc with Encore and are discouraged. Anything else installed, and/or running, that you can think of?
Sorry to play twenty questions, but Id like to be as clear, as I can, on exactly what is happening, before I make too many more guesses.

I have Yahoo mail. I want to add a hyperlink to emails. Your File tool in top bar has Send Link, but nothing happens. Yahoo says to use Format, but not there.

As in someone's previous question, I used to be able to add a hyperlink from a website. On Yahoo help, they say to click the hyperlink button on the formatting toolbar. There is no formatting toolbar. On your top toolbar, under File, there is a Send Link. When I click on this, nothing happens. On the top toolbar, under Edit, the Copy, Cut and Paste are grayed out. Please let me know how I can add a hyperlink to my email. I tried to add one from an Amazon page, but did not see anything on the page to make it possible. Thanks in advance.

First thing...you made a mistake
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JScrollBar;
import javax.swing.*;When you import javax.swing.*; You automatically
import JScrollPane & JScrollBar class, there's no
need for you to re import again...
That is not always a mistake. There are cases where it makes sense to do both (i.e., to import both '*' and a specific class name from that package at the same time). I believe the common example is:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.List;Now you can use "List" as a short name for "java.util.List", but must use "java.awt.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects. If you just did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;Then you couldn't use List as a short name for anything--because it is ambiguous. You'd have to use both "java.awt.List" and "java.util.List" spelled out in full.
Or, if you did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.List; // NOTE CHANGEThen "List" is short for "java.awt.List", and you must use "java.util.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects.
