Animation effects not playing correctly in captivate 6 (playing last frame first?)

Hi there,
Currently in captivate 6 I have a problem where when an item is coming in using an animation effect the image is flashing up very breifly, dissapearing then playing the animation as it should. it is almost as if it is playing the last split second first then looping round. This only applies to some of the items and not all of them, I have tried redoing them only for the same problem to occur. There is only 1 entrance effect playing on each item and there are 4 items on screen, the second and third images are the ones causing problems although the text and fitst image is fine. I have tried toggling sync with project. This also occurs both in publish and in preview
Any other ideas?

Hi Vish,
All of the items in question are set to display for the rest of the slide and the effect lasts less then a second where each item is on screen for 10+ seconds so there is plenty of the for the entrance effect to play out.
I have noticed however if I set all of the items with effects to start on the start of the slide the effect plays correctly but that means it isnt synced to the voiceover.

  • I attempted to download a song. It originally did not download correctly. I refreshed the download and it supposedly completed. Upon playing the song in both my library and on the Itunes store it will not play past the first 5 seconds. How can I fix this?

    Hello Whitney262,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I would go ahead and make sure you can first download the content, then remove the song from your iTunes Library, and download again from your iTunes past purchases.  The article below will walk you through the entire process:

  • Files Are Not Transferring Correctly from Captivate 4 to 5

    My files from Captivate 4 are not transferring correctly into Captivate 5.  The images and quiz questions are not in the same place. Help!

    This is a bug.
    We all have it.
    Keep CP4 for the old courses, and develop new ones in CP5. That is what I am doing.
    Alternative is to manually adjust everything (don't even get me started on rollovers...)

  • Captivate 5 - Text Animation Does not Play on Slide 1 Only

    I am using Captivate 5, updated to 5.0.1, with Windows XP, SP 3. Publishing as Export to HTML.
    The problem I am ecperienced just started in the last few days, sometime after 3/18/2011. I think this issue is different from similar problems reported in January, which seemed to impact all text animations.
    The problem is that text animations on slide 1 work OK in slide preview mode, but do not display at all in project preview mode or when published.
    Text animations work on all other slides. If I put a .blank slide in the project, so the failing slide 1 becomes slide 2, then the text animation plays OK, but I do not like such a workaround.
    In deliverables generated on 3/18, the text animations work on slide 1. If I regerate the same projects, the slide 1 animations no longer work.
    Has something been changed with Captivate 5 or Flash that is causing this problem? Any suggestions?

    I don't think you are missing anything. I am using the "Light_PAssage" animantion, but switching to the one you used has no impact.
    For me, if there is a text animation on slide one, it will play in File->Preview->Play Slide. It will not play in FIle->Preview->Project, From this slide, or Next 5 slides.
    The issue occurs in all my Captivate 5 projects, including projects that previously generated properly working outputs as recently as 2/23/2011.
    Is it possible it's related to Flash player? I am using Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX 10.2.152.26.
    I will send an example cptx to your email address. The example includes a blank slide one, and the text on slide 2 plays as expected in the previews and in the generated output. If I remove the blank slide 1, the text animation on the new slide 1 no longer plays.
    Thanks.

  • Flash Animation: Font Not Displaying Correctly

    Hi all!
    I am having a problem with a Flash animation in Captivate that seems like it should be an easy fix, but I can't seem to figure it out.
    I have a very simple Flash animation that I developed in CS5. It previews in Flash perfectly, play correctly in Flash Player, but when I insert it into Captivate 4 the fonts do not display correctly. Capital letters are missing as well as other letters.
    It's not a matter of AS2 vs. AS3 as I have already tested that. It also is not a frame rate or version issue as I have confirmed they are the same rates and the same version.
    Can anyone shed any light? Anyone else had this same problem? Any guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Daniel

    Hi dmendoza2,
    Did you embed your fonts into the flash animation?  Make sure all characters necessary are embedded.

  • Animation does not play automatically when published

    I am having a problem with swf files that do not play automatically in my project. Actually some do and some do not. I have the properties set to no transition and rest of slide and even tried rest of animation. The slide works when I play it but when I preview the project the animation does not start. Sometimes I can click the play button and it will play but the other objects will have started so the timing is off.
    Does anyone have any suggestions to try?  Thanks Emily

    Welcome to our community, Emily.
    Usually things pause because there is a Button, Click Box or Text Entry Box object on the slide and these objects pause the slide waiting for user interaction.
    Do the slides where you are seeing animations stopping have any of these objects? If so, you may need to tweak the pause point. (indicated by the double bars ( || ).
    Cheers... Rick

  • MiniDV Video in Affert Effects not showing correct ratio.

    I'd like to know how to edit minidv video in its aspect ratio in After Effects. Video is 720 by 480 and 16 by 9 (non-square pixels). When I import the video, it's stretched too tall (set to square pixels I believe). No mater how many times I change the composition ration to widescreen, it still does not show correctly.
    I seem to do fine in Premiere. It automatically sets the aspect ratio for minidv video. But I can't get After Effects to do it. I don't want to spend time creating something only for it to be squished in Premiere later.
    So how to do create a composition that's 16 x 9 using non-square pixels 720 by 480 that can be edited into miniDV video in adobe premiere?

    If you properly interpret your footage as widescreen (AE may guess incorrectly here) and put it in any square pixel comp it will not look distorted but it may or may not fill the frame. It will only fill the frame if the frame size is the square pixel equivalent size of your widescreen footage. This applies to all non square pixel aspect ratio footage.
    If you interpret your footage as widescreen and put it in the same format (NTSC, PAL HDV) widescreen comp it will also fill the frame. There may be some black pixels on the left and right side because almost all cameras don't put live pixels in every column or even every row of the frame, but the footage will fill the frame. The caveat is that this footage will look distorted unless you activate pixel aspect correction preview in the Comp window because computer displays are always square pixels. You have to fool the display by selecting this option.
    When you render your widescreen comp, if you're using any of the standard DV codecs or a codec like Quicktime Animation or JPG, there is no place in this codec for an aspect ratio tag that will tell apps like Premiere or FCP or Avid that this footage is supposed to be widescreen. Once you import the footage to another app you'll have to check and make sure that the footage is interpreted as widescreen there too.
    I hope this helps. What ever you do, do not use the Fit to Frame option to force footage into a comp frame. If you insist on using Fit to Frame then check the X and Y scale values after you do and make sure they are identical. If they are not, you've distorted your footage at that point and it will be difficult or impossible to fix it later.

  • A mystery: Animated GIF not displaying correctly.

    I've started adding images to a >1 year old game that I kind of abandoned, which formerly used hard-coded graphics. I'm looking to use a 4 frame long animated GIF of what would appear to be a rotating blade-like enemy. (Not actually a blade, but this is irrelevant.)
    The GIF which I am using can be viewed here: ftp://72.141.73.226/ftproot/av.gif
    I have taken screenshots of the 4 frames I am receiving, and slowed the result down here: ftp://72.141.73.226/ftproot/broken.gif
    I'm not quite sure why it's doing that.. Any ideas?
    Also, I've got it programmed so that when the enemies are defeated, they emit a small explosion, which is also an animated GIF. It can be found here: ftp://72.141.73.226/ftproot/boom.gif
    The images are drawn by the class AI class, which extends JPanel (For the ImageObserver status). The image displayed is determined when a method called changeImg is called.
    public void changeImg (String img) {
        this.img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(img);
    }When the health reaches 0, the 'boom' image (found above) is put onto the object's 'img' variable, which is later called like this:
    g.drawImage (img, x-w/2, y, x+w/2, y+h, 0, 0, 20, 20, this);Essentially, it draws the image at certain coordinates depending on the position of the user, and sizes the image depending on the size of the user (variable with difficulty.) and you can see where it is using 'this' as an ImageObserver, because it just so happens to be one. (This is the only way I know to display images.)
    There's a small problem, however. When the 'boom' graphic is loaded, it floats around in memory, not being drawn, because it's not being told to, but evidently goign through the animation anyway. This means that all explosions are synchronized, so say I defeat an enemy at frame 0, and then another one at frame 5. The 10 frame explosion is already half-complete, so the second enemy's explosion animation is the latter half of the explosion animation, followed by the inital half. I tried creating the GIF so that it would be set to 'play once', but then after the first enemy exploded, all enemies would display the last frame of the explosion, instead of playing the animation once.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    (This isn't for homework, don't worry. I finished this assignment over a year ago, and just decided to add to it a bunch.)

  • Flex Mobile - Sound Effect not Playing on List snapping (code sample provided)

    Hello All,
    I'm trying to figure out how to play a Sound Effect on the trigger of the "changing" event on a List.
    So basically I have:
    <s:List id="theList" width="100%"
                itemRenderer="MyIconItemRenderer" verticalScrollPolicy="off"
                pageScrollingEnabled="true" scrollSnappingMode="center"
                caretChange="playSound(event)"> ... </List>
    So the list above snaps to the item to be centered, though I would like on every snap, for it to make a click sound. I've added the method for playing the sound as:
    private var tickChange:Sound;
    private var soundEffectURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest('/assets/sound/click.mp3');
    protected function playSound(event:IndexChangeEvent):void  {      
         tickChange = new Sound(soundEffectURLRequest);
         tickChange.play();
    The Sound effect plays, though it's not playing at every Snap interval, so if I scroll fast among them, it's not playing, only on the last selection.

    I can´t believe it.. While writing the previous post, I thought on a really simple solution and compiled it to give it a try. It works perfectly!
    As simple as setting the "cacheAsBitmap" property to "true" on the Spark lists of the views!! 

  • Animation will not play in Cap 5.5

    Need some help here...I'm trying to run an animation in one slide of my Captivate 5.5 project. It is a SWF that loads external .as, xml and images. It will run fine outside of Captivate, but once I drop it into Captivate on the slide nothing displays. What do i have to do to get this to work? My imported SWF is in AS3 as well. This type of aniamtion worked in Cap4 and AS2. Is there some added code, linkage, publishing method that I need to do differently?
    Later...

    Hi there,
    I would recommend that you start by making sure you have Captivate 4.0.1 installed (Build 1658) You can check this by carrying out the following steps:
    1. Open Adobe Captivate
    2. Choose Help > Updates...
    If that doesn't solve the problem and you are using Windows XP then you might also want to take a look at the web address I have included below. It is possible that your Windows Registry is corrupt or has incorrect permissions.

  • BUG: Speed Dials not functioning correctly when Option button is last used

    There is a bug in WebOS where Speed Dials do not work correctly.  Holding down your speed dial favorites button will not place the call. This happens when the option key is used in launcher or card view before attempting speed dial.
    For instance if your last character of a search you did 4 hours ago on your phone contained a series of numbers and you locked the option key to do so, (or even if you accidently hit the option key last and then did not need it) then an attempt to use speed dial "G" will not work, as your Pre/Pixi thinks you are holding down the "6" key and not the "G" key.
    This needs to be remedied (for instance have the option key press clear out or unlocked as soon as the search is performed or cleared off of the phone) because there is no way to tell what state the option key is in before using a speed dial (not that I want to check and fiddle with it anyway).

    The Z and B keys are the * and # keys. That is why they are not in the speed dial list. Hmmm... while it might be a "bug" at this time your the only person having this issue as far as I can tell. Since the issue moved to another phone it could be that  its related to your Palm Profile. I unfortunately cannot replicate this issue but would like to test something. Can you do a Partial erase on your device and create a new Palm profile? This will see if the issue is still on the device.
    If it is not then the issue is within your Palm Profile. If that is the case I can help you from there. Please post back when you tried this step.

  • TS1424 Songs availble with album purchase only show downloaded with album but play will not play past the first few seconds of the song.  Solution???

    Purchased entire album.  Songs available only with album purchase show completed download with album, but play only a short demo of song (both PC and iPod).  This is my first iTunes purchase so I likely missed a step.  Is this a user of iStore error?  Solution(s)?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Effects not playing in Captivate 6

    Hello,
    I am trying to have an image zoom in using the Effects options. I have a static image on the page and want it to act like a portion of the image is getting bigger. I have it set to zoom in and it does it on the "Live Preview" but won't do it when I play the "Project" role or publish it to SWF.
    I am at a loss right now and I am hoping you all can help get this working for me.

    This is how I have this piece set up to scroll across the back from left to right and I want it to scroll automatically but when I play the project it only will play when I click the "Play" button.

  • Clip name effect not working correctly in 2014/2014.1

    I'm referring to these notes from the latest bug fixes here...
    Bugs fixed in Premiere Pro 2014.1 Release | Premiere Pro work area
    "Clip name effect doesn’t work correctly if Source Track is set to a different track."
    "The Clip Name effect does not work when applied to a transparent video track item, with Source Track set to a video clip."
    I've just updated Premiere (2014.1) to specifically fix these two bugs. The Clip name effect isn't using the correct file names. It uses something close but not quite e.g. clip 100 shows as 100B which is down the timeline.
    The effect is applied to a transparent layer (have also tried it in a black video layer) and the clip name drawn from a different video track (video/PNGs in track 1, transparent video and effect is in track 3). This problem only appears when videos are in the timeline. When used with stills (PNGs) it works fine.
    Any idea of a fix or workaround that isn't using some kind of titling filter? I'm looking to automate the shot naming process for a pipeline in creating animation animatics and this would be perfect. If to actually worked properly.
    Using Premiere on a Mac Book Pro with 10.9.5.

    Anyone from Adobe care to offer some insight as it's something that is reportedly fixed?

  • ImsManifest.xml not populating correctly in Captivate 6

    Captivate 6 does not populate the imsmanifest.xml correctly.  It does not include the title and the description entered from the Configure section of the Quiz Reporting preferences.  As a result the missing data isn't reported to our SumTotal LMS.
    The information is in the Captivate 5 manifest and is reported to the LMS.
    I submitted a bug report, but I wish I had checked with this forum first.
    Does anyone have a solution, other than entering the data into the manifest manually?
    Frank

    Nathan,
    Your welcome, if that is the case, then can you try and insert the MultiSlide Video, you can insert the streaming video URL.
    You can add the server to you computer as network Drive and then browser to that location, once you do that, the options to add the Video as Streaming can be chose and your Vidoe would remain insync with main playbar, users can play and pause content that way.
    See if this can be implemented at your end.
    Thanks,
    Anjaneai
