Avatars - Can they be use with Captivate 3

I am wondering if anyone knows if there is an ability to use
human like avatars with Captivate 3? Also does anyone know where I
may find them and cost or any free sites in which to import
them.

Yes you can use avatars with Captivate. In addition to
CodeBaby, you could
try Visual Communicator (www.vcom3d.com), which I've been
experimenting with
for the last few weeks. Very powerful, but not cheap.
Check out this article on Silke's blog for more info

I don't think you will actually find any free avatars that
you can use,
because you need to record audio, gestures etc. to suit your
own
requirements. The closest would have been Microsoft's Agent,
but that
doesn't work with Captivate so far as I know (no ActiveX
support).

  • I have just brought 2 mini's for my boys for xmas.  1. can I connect them both to my existing Itunes account or do I need to set up something different. and 2. can they be used on their dads account as well as mine, or only one?

    I have just brought 2 mini's for my boys for xmas.  1. can I connect them both to my existing Itunes account or do I need to set up something different. and 2. can they be used on their dads account as well as mine, or only one?

    You can set them up with your Apple ID if you want to. You can also set them up with their dad's Apple ID. Depending on how old the boys are, you can even let then have their own Apple ID's. The one thing that you don't want to do is have them use more than one Apple ID on their iPads.
    If you want to be able to share purchased content, then setting them up with either your ID or your husband's (?) ID would be the way to go. If the boys share an ID with one of you, they can download content that you have already purchased without having to pay for it again.
    If you and have the financial wherewithal to allow them to purchase their own individual content, I would recommend letting them have their own Apple ID. This way, as they grow older and eventually move on, they will have their own accounts, their own purchases .... No ties needed to your ID or to dad's ID. FaceTime and Messages will be a little easier to set up if they have their own ID's and they can have their own iCloud accounts as well. However, they must be 13 years old in order to have an Apple ID and iTunes account. If they are under 13, then it's a no brainer you will have to use yours or their father's ID.
    Whatever you decide to do, just don't switch from one ID to another ID on the iPads. That gets confusing and they could end up locking themselves out of one of the ID's for 90 days if they download a past purchase using a different ID.

  • Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs)

    Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs), evidently?
    This as per their tier 2 tech suport.
    They say I should just convert to metric, no joke!
    Any ideas would be greatly appreaciated?
    Also a warning to anyone thinking of using business catalyst for their site, sorry, their business.
    Their note to me:
    Your request (# 82816) has been solved. To reopen this request, reply to this email or go to the Help & Support page.

        Thanks for contacting us Michael  
    Our engineering team has detected some problems when doing weight conversions (from the quantities entered in the interface to what’s used when making the API calls to FedEx) -
      He have added this to our internal bug tracker to be fixed for one of the future releases. 
        I realise that this might not be what you wanted to hear,but at this moment we do't have a workaround in order to send the
      dimensions in pounds and not in KG 
        Sorry for this inconvenience!
      Kind regards, 

    If you're in US it will be in pounds. If your site is set any other country
    in the rest of the world it will be metric. So BC or as you call it
    Dreamweaver will look at the site country, which you set when creating the
    site

  • Monitor Recommendations for Use with Captivate

    Anyone have any monitor recommendations for use with Captivate? Size and resolution?

    The formal adobe  recommendation is as posted 1024x768 is fine.
    But, monitors are not that expensive, so for productivity and better work environment I recommend at least one wide screen 22" with resolution  1600X1200 or more  and that supports 1080 for video.
    You need the  wide screen ( or  two monitors) so you can work with all the tools in one view.

    Can CS5 be used with Photo Elements 9?

    Well, they are separate programs. Not sure what specifically you are looking for. Of course PS CS5 can function as an advanced editor for images, but beyond that they don't interact.

  • Can you do THIS with Captivate ? ...

    Hi,
    I'm new to Adobe Captivate and am using the 30 day trial to see if it does what I need it to do.
    I need to create a test as follows:
    60 questions, split into sections.
    I need a small button for each question, numbered 1 - 60 aligned vertically in one line down the left of the page, so there would need to be some scrolling as 60 buttons would go off the screen.
    Pushing each button would select a multiple choice question from a random pool. eg. Push button No. 5 and a random question would be there. Push 6 and there's be a different question, but if you pushed 5 again, the same question would be there as before. This enables the person being tested to skip back and fore between questions by clicking the buttons.
    There may be numerous sections to each test.
    eg.
    Car Engines
    Car Bodywork
    Steering
    Suspension etc. etc.
    So, questions 1 - 8 say may be picked randomly from the 'Car Engines' question pool.
    Questions 9 - 19 say may be picked randomly from the 'Car Bodywork' question pool. etc. etc.
    At the end of the test, I need the results to be displayed such as:
    Car Engines - 76%
    Car Bodywork - 52%  etc.
    I'd also like a simple bar chart representation if possible.
    Hope this is clear.
    I'd be very grateful if somebody could advise if this type of test scenarion can be created with Captivate.
    I'm prepared to learn to use Captivate if it can be done, but do not want to waste my time if Captivate doesn't have the capability to create this type of test.
    Grateful for any advice.

    Captivate won't give you exactly what you've described straight out of the box.  But then, neither will any other authoring tool that I'm aware of.
    Scrolling Navigation Buttons
    The Captivate screen does not scroll.  You need to think of it as being like a movie you watch on TV, not as an HTML web page.  There are widgets available to give some scrolling of text in captions, but not something that would provide navigation on each and every quiz slide with buttons to jump to any question in the quiz.
    Question Pools
    Captivate can have any number of question pools associated with a single project file, but you have to set up how many questions will come from a given pool before you publish the project. When the project loads into the user's browser, the randomisation is done to select the particular questions from each pool that will appear in the movie at runtime and is then fixed for the duration of that runtime.  You can't control it and perform more randomisation via clicking of buttons. Basically, your navigation buttons are just intended to take you to particular question slides.  Which quiz question appears on that slide at runtime is totally dependent on the randomisation done from the question pool.
    So if you have 5 question pools, each with 20 questions, but only want ten question from each pool to appear in your published project, you can easily do this with Captivate.
    NOTE: One other thing you need to be aware of is that once your user answers a question and moves off that slide, their answer will be locked and cannot be changed until the Retake the Quiz or relaunch the lesson.  So although Captivate can be configured to allow backward movement, it does not necessarily allow your user to go back and change their answers to questions previously answered.
    Quiz Results
    Captivate considers all questions or scored objects in a project file to be part of its Quiz Scope.  This scope begins on the slide containing the first scored element, and goes until the last scored element.  A project file can have only one Quiz Results slide which will show scoring data from all objects in the Quiz Scope.
    If you want to have scoring displayed separately for certain sections of your quiz (Car engines, Car bodywork, etc) you will need to use one of Captivate's more advanced techniquest using Advanced Actions and Variables.  It can be done out of the box, but it takes time to achieve the required scripting.
    Captivate does not have bar charts as standard screen objects.  Once again, you could use some fancy Advanced Actions and Variable scripting to rig up something that looked similar.  But it would take yet more time.
    I hope this helps with your decision.

  • GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time

    Dear all,
    I am a beginner so please don't throw rocks at me...
    I have created two frames with NetBeans. One is the main frame (extends from JPanel) and the other frame I put it to be started when pressing a button from the main frame (the second frame extends from JFrame). Both frames are created using the designer in NetBeans, so the code for creating the GUI is automatically generated by NetBeans, so both frames use the same layout (GroupLayout).
    Here is the code of the button from the main frame to start the second one:
    private void manageCustomersActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                                
            // TODO add your handling code here:
            CustomerGUI custGUI1=new CustomerGUI();//CustomerGUI is the second frame
            custGUI1.setVisible(true);
    }When I press this button from the main frame I get this runtime exception: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time. The second frame is not opened.
    How should I handle this?
    What I want to do: I want to have a main frame, from which I can start additional ones (the main frame must be always opened, while the additional ones can be closed after performing certain actions). I read a little about internal frames and I think this can be a solution, but I must edit the existing design...
    Thank you
    With respect,
    Don

    There are those that maintain that JFrame should never be extended. I am not convinced, but most cases where a JFrame is extended would be better coded as simply configuring the JFrame within the main(). GUI builders such as found in NetBeans seem to extend JFrame as a matter of course.I too am not rigorous or religious about this either, but try to adhere to this as a matter of practicality and convenience, I find that if I don't extend a JComponent but rather use composition rather than inheritance, it's much easier to use objects of my class when programming in Eclipse. For instance in Eclipse (and in most IDEs), if I type my object name and then a period, it will show all of the method's available for me to use on this object. If I subclass JPanel or JFrame, I'll see a gazillion methods most I don't want to see, and thus most are clutter. On the other hand if I use composition, I'll only see a small number of methods and these will be only the methods that I want to see and need to use.

    hi i want to use find my mac but i got this massage (some configurations, such as software or hardware RAID,do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with find my mac)

  • Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

    I'm getting the following error message when attempting to invoke "Find My Mac"
    Some configurations such as a software or hardware RAID do not support a recovery partition and can't be used with Find My Mac.

    You have no recovery partition. This is a normal condition if your boot volume is a software RAID, or if you modified the partition table after running Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition. Otherwise, you need to reinstall OS X in order to add a recovery partition.
    If you don't have a current backup, you need to back up before you do anything else.
    You have several options for reinstalling.
    1. If you have access to a local, unencrypted Time Machine backup volume, and if that volume has a backup of a Mac (not necessarily this one) that was running the same major version of OS X and did have a Recovery partition, then you can boot from the Time Machine volume into Recovery by holding down the option key at the startup chime. Encrypted Time Machine volumes are not bootable, nor are network backups.
    2. If your Mac shipped with OS X 10.7 or later preinstalled, or if it's one of the computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery, you may be able to netboot from an Apple server by holding down the key combination option-R  at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
     Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication. 
    3. Use Recovery Disk Assistant (RDA) on another Mac running the same major version of OS X as yours to create a bootable USB device. Boot your Mac from the device by holding down the option key at startup.Warning: All existing data on the USB device will be erased when you use RDA.
    Once you've booted into Recovery, the OS X Utilities screen will appear. Follow the prompts to reinstall OS X. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
    If none of the above choices is open to you, then you'll have to start over from an OS X 10.6.8 installation. There's no need to overwrite your existing boot volume; you can use an external drive. Install 10.6 from the DVD you originally used to upgrade, or that came with the machine. Run Software Update and install all available updates. Log into the App Store with the Apple ID you used to buy 10.7 or later, and download the installer. When you run it, be sure to choose the right drive to install on.

  • Is "sp_purge_data" available only to datawarehouses or can it be used with both a normal database and Azure storage as well ?

    Is "sp_purge_data" available only to datawarehouses or can it be used with both a normal database  and Azure storage as well ?

    Thank you for the reply Qiuyun , the article was really helpful!
    I do have couple of other questions for you :
    How do we execute our SQL queries on Windows Azure tables and create horizontal partitions ? (I know that we have our SQL Server management Studio to execute normal queries on a SQL database , do we have a similar platform for Azure or do we have to get a local
    copy of the database to execute our queries and the  publish everything back to Azure)? I am looking to partition data on one of our databases and would like to know if it can be done in Azure directly or if we have to bring a local copy down ,write the
    partition function and
    and partition scheme or create a partition key and a row key - do the needful and publish it back to Azure?
    Also, how do I create a partition key and row key in Windows Azure?
    I am in the process of designing data archiving strategy for my team and would like to know more about the questions I just mentioned.
    Hoping to hear back from you soon.
    Thanks in advance for all the help!

  • I but garage band w my iPad can i also use with my laptop, or i need to buy it again?

    i but garage band w my iPad can i also use with my laptop, or i need to buy it again?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The iPad and the Mac use different operating systems and different App Stores (App Store in the iPad, and Mac App Store in the Mac). In this case, you have to purchase GarageBand for your Mac in the Mac App Store, because the iPad version isn't compatible with any Mac. However, if you have another iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, you can install GarageBand for free on those devices. The same for Macs if you purchase GarageBand for your Mac
