Alt hover text for a Flash animation?

Hi,
Is it possible to add alt text to a Flash animation so that
when a user
hovers over the animation, text appears in the same way it
does for images?
Thanks.
Nath.

Thanks Fel_911,
I'm very new to Flash. Is there an easy tutorial on creating
the dynamic
text that follows the mouse?
I already have a Flash animation created which is simply a
series of 3 fade
in/fade out images. Do I just add in a background layer,
under my 3
fade-in/fade-out images and create a mouse-over effect for
that background?
How does the text display? Should the text be part of the
animation,
perhaps as a symbol that appears on mouse-over?
Thanks again for your advice,
Regards
Nath.

Help with html code for displaying flash animation

hi all,
i'm new to the forums :)
not sure if this is the correct section or not.
i run a small web based community for xboxlive players and i
am trying to add an interactive flash file into a block on the main
portal page
What
the file should do- link to sample file
link to swf
file- link to actual flash file
homepage - link to portal
homepage where the flash file needs to be, if you scroll all the
way down the bottom of the page you will se it sort of works but im
stumped as to how to get the full animation to show properly ?
any help would be most appreciated.
cheers

hard to say just what the issue is here, since the file
operates normally in other embeds - I guessing that it has
something to do with your BB settings somewhere.

Updating text for non flash users

Hi there,
I´ve got a client that wants a basic flash site built
and they have no Flash or Dreamweaver experience. The main problem
for me is that they want to be able to update some textfields
themselves. Their vision is to have like a basic text document that
they simply upload and bobs your uncle, it´s finished.
I´m kind of a rookie on flash and site design and know the
basics, but this is sort of out of my area of knowledge. Greatefull
for any tips that might solve this problem.
Regards
Johan

you are welc
me
If you look at mytext.txt in the text file, I believe you can
understand it is not suitable to hold data like long text,
paragraphs, or a lot of data. xml would be easier to manage, if you
have more data & need to have formatting when display it.
look at this site
http://www.kianclassic.com.my/
- at ContactUs page, the address, tel, fax, all loaded from a
single XML file, and formatted in that way.
- at PhotoGallery page, filename & description of each
photo also loaded from xml.
By using this way, client can update their contacts info, add
new photo, by themselve, without need flash software or skill of
using it.

Hide hover text for HTML help file images???

When I build HTML help, hovering over the image shows the
graphic's name. Can this be hidden?

Hi Molly0602 and welcome to our community
Hmmm, not sure about using RoboHelp for Word to do this. Out
of curiosity, why are you using RoboHelp for Word to create HTML
based output? Why not switch to RoboHelp HTML? I don't believe this
is an issue in that environment.
Just a thought... Rick

Hide or remove player's hover text

When a user clicks the CC button during playback to open closed captions window, and then hovers the cursor over a button on the player bar (my player bar is centered on the bottom, directly below the captions window), the hover text for each button is partially hidden behind the closed caption window. (See below...) Can I somehow remove the hover text, or have it display on top of the caption window?

LOL - I'll complete what Michael's sentence should finish with.
You can remove the hover texts alltogether by editing the playbar in Flash if you have that installed on your machine.
... and you know how to use it.
Cheers... Rick

Hover Text in Top Level Navigation

Hi,
I need to add a Hover Text for Top Level Navigation.I need to display some information text regarding the Role on moving mouse over it.
I did experimenting on download of com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevelnavigation but I am unaware where exactly Change to be made.
Any ideas??

HI Raja,
Check the Accessibility flag in the New User Registration form, if it is ON then it disables Hover feature for the portal.
Check the link esp the Header area part :

Posting Flash Animation On MySpace & Other Such Sites

Over the years I’ve created many animated GIFs that I posted on my website. Whenever I wanted to post these animations anywhere else on the web (MySpace, for instance), all I had to do was point to them using this HTML code:<img src=" http://illuminationgallery.net/animated.gif ”>. What is the equivalent code for posting Flash animations? I've tried looking at MySpace pages in Page Source mode, but everything appeared so convoluted.

I understand that neither method did the repairs you are seeking. My post was a side-note information update for you and others who read these posts, that we haven't had to boot from the install DVD to do a Permissions Repair since Tiger (I think)or maybe even Panther (doesn't matter when the requirement was dropped anyway), and that you can actually set some permissions wrong by using the boot DVD because of changes in the OS since it was installed.
For your problem I recommend creating a new temporary Admin user account and seeing if the problem continues in the new account. If it does, then the problem is in the OS, which can be re-installed over the top of your existing installation (without affecting your files in your user accounts). If the problem goes away, then it could be incompatible or corrupted preference files or other incompatible programs in the user account causing the problems. Right now you haven't isolated the problem to either possibility.

How to show Flash animation

(Web Logic 6.1.4)
On my WL server in "web.xml" configuration file of my web-application I have
correctly defined the MIME-type for shockwave flash animations and I can see
it if I open it directly (direct link on .SWF file). But I'd like to have
the classic and proper approach showing SWF file inside HTM file using
OBJECT/EMBED tags. I created HTM file with OBJECT/EMBED tags and I can see
my flash animation in it if I run this page directly by IE but if I put this
HTM file on server and try to see it served by WL server it does not work!
How to solve this issue?
Stjepan Brbot

Well thanks Ned, I do apologize for the shortness of the post, i was in a bit of a rush. I also assumed this would be easy to infer as its quite simple.
The flash animation can be seen here - http://www.blakecorp.com. it shows three blocks which move around a bit.
The user should be able to click on a block and this should lead to a url.
I have tried various geturl combos on various events all over the code and nothing works.
I am not a flash guru so apologies if I cant give you a design of this as I did not write it.
I think the problem is that the images etc are not buttons but I am struggling to find a way to make this work.
This is probably 10 minutes work for a flash programmer
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Activate Flash Animations

When I ad flash animations to my website, I always have to
click on them once to activate them before you can actually use the
hyperlink that I created in the animation. I just went to
shockwave.com and noticed that you don't have to do that for the
animations to be active. How do I bypase the "Click here to
activate and use this control" for my flash animations in my
website. Here is an example of what i'm talking about:

Alt text for photos not appearing

Hi,
I tagged a large document in InDesign (because Acrobat Pro's feature is too unpredictable).
I assigned alt text to all the photos, but when I hover my cursor over them while viewing the
exported PDF, only some are showing up.
It turns out that large photos that I have on chapter divider pages are the only ones
not showing their alt text, even though they are set up in InDesign structure view the
same way as all other photos.
Can anyone think of a reason why this is happening? The only thing I can think of
that's different about them is that they originally are from a master page. But because
each photo is unique, they've already been disconnected from the original master page.
Thanks,
Jane

I just figured out that those photos had been set to a blending mode of Multiply
because an earlier iteration of the design used transparency. But to the eye, they
look like normal photos, so I didn't realize they were set to Multiply.
This solved the problem but it's not heartening news. What if my graphic legitimately
did have a blending mode set? What would my workaround be if I needed to set Alt Text
for those images?

Substituting a graphic for text in a Flash header

I am using a simple Flash program with 4 lines of text -- the
final line being a company name -- for the header of a website. The
program works great. Current the text is dynamic with the text held
in a flash.txt file linked to the flash.fla file.
In place of the final line of text in the program, I would
like to substitute a graphic logo. The graphic I want to use
instead of text is basically the same size as the text. And I I
don;t need to change the animation text. I just want to be able to
use the graphic instead of the simple text. Is there is a simple,
easy way to substitute the graphic flie (say, a gif, or png file)
to the text in the flash program? I am assuming that this should be
easy, but I can't figure out howto do this (yes, I am relatively
new at this). Can anyone give me any suggestions, clues, or insight
into how to do this? Thanks very much for you help.
Thanks.

Image,
Instead of entering a 1 for the grade, why not enter the date. Then instead of adding 1's to get the level, use COUNT(E1:I1). Condition your cell fill to "not equal to 0" and leave the text option unchecked. That way the date will show through the background.

How Can I Make a Flash Animation for TV?

I'm learning flash animation and am wondering once I save the flash file to a dvd format, how does the end-user navigate when they put the dvd into their TV? Do I need to design and incorporate a menu for the end-user? If so, how does the TV remote control navigate through this menu that was created on a Mac computer? Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.

I don't know a lot about this subject but thought I'd give it a shot to answer. You can use Adobe Encore to create menu systems for your DVD title screen. As far as Flash is concerned I think you can import your animations into Encore's menu system though I'm not exactly sure how. If you want to just make an animation that will be played back without interactivity you would just export your Flash animation as a Quicktime MOV file and import it into After Effects for further editing and finishing. Once you render your mp4 (h.264) from AE you can bring this into Encore to author for your DVD.

What do you mean "invoke" alt-text? If Alt-text is there, then it will be presented to a screen reader.
