Background changes for every button?

Hello, I am using encore 5.1 and I was wondering if it's possible to have the background change every time I go from one button to the next withtout actually changing menus?
I would like to do something like in the video I'm linking (watch only the first 10 seconds to get an idea of what I'm talking about).  Granted, in the video, what's running is a program and not a dvd menu, but is something similar possible in encore?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKMu-bybpI0
I know I can make it so I go on a button, click enter, this brings me to a new menu with a new background, but I want to cut on the amount of menus.  I like the idea of the background changing automatically without having to go to a new menu.
Thanks for your time and help!

When using dupe Menus and Auto Activate, I strongly recommend that one sketch out the flowchart first, and also think about using Button and Menu names, that relate directly to where they need to Link. With a bunch of Buttons, it can get involved pretty quickly. With a bit of planning, things will be much easier. I usually will layout my flowchart in Adobe Illustrator, and use the images of my Menus, in that image. It really helps me plan things. However, using AI might be overkill for some Projects, and a pencil and paper would do the job.
Good luck, and remember, if played on a computer, the effect will not be so fluid, as the user must click on the "original" Menu to get to the "dupe" Menu with the different background - just a limitation of Auto Activate on a computer. In a DVD player, it will be pretty seamless, and can look beautiful. I use this general technique to create what appear to be Sub-picture Highlights, that are really graphics.

  • How do I close multiple files in Preview on OSX10.8 without having to click on "Revert Changes" for every file?

    I opened, say, 100 PNG files that were saved in a landscape format.  So I selected all files, typed Cmd+L (to rotate left), and then viewed them for a while.  After I was finished, I tried to close all of them at once, but found I had to click on "Revert Changes" for every file?
    In Snow Leopard, an option would come up allowing you to discard changes for ALL open files.  Here, I cannot seem to find that option (if it even exists).  Does anyone have an idea?

Also can you put an outline or a box around the 6 lines of text that you input.

    As Peter says, you can use a Table for this. You do not, however, need to enter two dates to fill with a series of dates. Dates are an exception to the general Fill rule. Just enter one, and fill down to get successive dates.
    Other exception available:
    a single cell is sufficient for every entries ending with a number :
    president1
    thief2
    king3
    behave this way.
    Durations behave like numbers : two cells are required.

  • How to get numerical value for every button

    Hi,
    Currently I am using a case structure to determine which graph i want to display. For example, each case( i have 7 cases), there is a frequency,amplitude dial which user can change it. So basically there are 7 of those. Let say the user want to change case 1 and display those. I've plan to place a button PLAY beside the frequency dial so that it will activate the case 1. But the problem is how can i do that as the input for the case structure is numerical (0-6) to select the case. How can i activate case 1 for an example, when i click the button PLAY beside the first dial? Is it possible to change the configuration of the button PLAY, so that when its activated, it will give out numeric 1 and i wire to the case structure input? Thanks guys.

    Maybe you want to use a single radiobutton control with seven items?
    Here's a quick example.
    (Also, see what happens if you wire the radiobutton control to a case structure. )

  • Mouse preference changes for primary button, effects trackpad button

    After connecting a Kensington bluetooth travel mouse/trackball device, the mouse tab appears in the Keyboard and Mouse preference panel. I set the Primary mouse button to right. All is right in the would, mouse works great.
    Now, when I use the MacBook Pro without the mouse, the trackpad requires a two finger click for the primary click and a no finger click for a secondary click.
    There is no mouse tab to change this behavior back. If you do not have the two finger click turned on, the mac has no click device.
    There is no kensington software installed on the macintosh.
    Is this as designed?
    Is there a command line "default" command I can issue if I have no access to a mouse, but have access via ssh from somewhere else on the network.
    I have started to use the mouse right handed, but now my coffee cup is on the wrong side of my mac.

    I went to the Apple store tonight, and with the help of a kindly employee pulled out a few mice and macbooks and learned the following:
    1. This problem is replicable on all new (April, 2008) macbook pros
    2. It does NOT happen with Apple supermice. Apple mice bring up a different system preference pane, which apparently does not carry over to the trackpad BUT
    3. When we plugged a generic USB 2 button mouse (not a logitech, but I forget the brand) into the display macbooks pros, the bug was right there, exactly where it was on mine.
    The good news is that I will not need to ship my macbook pro back to apple for a new motherboard (as the low level tech support suggested), since my computer isn't defective.
    The bad news is that you have to be a left handed, generic two button mouse user on one of the new macbook pros to hit this bug, which is a small universe of users. So it may take a while to get apple's attention.
    As unfair as it seems, the only workaround for now (without going to the terminal-- see the end of this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1445925&tstart=0) appears to be buying an apple 2 button mouse.

  • Using a background image for the buttons in spry menu

    Hi All,
    Going nuts here.
    I'm using the vertical spry menu widget w DW CS3 and trying
    to alter the css style sheet, so that I can use a li class for each
    of the 14 links on this page, with an upstate and a hover state
    only. (the focus, and hover while down will be the same as the
    others, to keep it simple and not too distracting)
    The page is here that I will be replacing the entire
    background image in sidebar1 and sidebar2 with a custom spry menu
    with the 14 li classes for 2 seperate menus:
    http://audibleimagesav.com/blank_doc.html
    Has anyone used a background image in place of just using
    bkgrd colors and borders for the spry menu ?
    I am aware of the attributes that the help docs suggest that
    need to be altered as listed here :
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Spry/1.4/help.html?content=WS0BB04E11-1BE3-4a67-BC94-BE7DA 93A0159.html
    I have been working on just an experimental page, that is now
    hacked up, however if you want to see that it is here with only the
    first list item coded:
    http://audibleimagesav.com/site%20theme%20ideas/sprymenu_exp.html
    The spry css menu widget for that page is here:
    http://audibleimagesav.com/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarVertical.css
    So in short, has anyone done a bkgrd image for the main menu
    (not submenu) in a spry widget?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Document custom format changes for every report

    HI Experts,
    We have been developing no of reports for a day using WEBI Rich Client. In our reports we have few measures which are holding decimal values which are not displaying when user creates a new report as per standard number format there is no decimal values.
    We select each column of that measures and create custom format as "#,###.##" and add it.  But ! when user creates a new report, that created report doesn't have previously created custom format to display deciamal values.
    Is there anyway that we can create custom format and make it permenent and as a default.
    Regards,
    Suresh

    Amr's suggestion is right.
    By the way ... if desired number format is not displayed when you use the option Object Format->Number check in Universe Designer menu Tools->Options Language and check Migration Forced checkbox.
    Sometimes happens that there is no #,##0.00 format but  #.##0,00 and that's because of the language used for the universe, I guess.

  • Different background for every Space?

    Is there any utility that would let me specify a different background image for every Space?

    That seems like a trivial feature, but it may be difficult to implement. The system would have to keep the other desktop images loaded in memory (one per space) so that switching would work seamlessly and immediately, without any delay. That's potentially 16 images. If the Mac had two displays, that's 32. And a Mac can have more displays...
    To answer your question, I have not seen any utility to do that.
    I think the idea for Spaces it that your desktop does not move or change. It's your open application windows that slide onto an off of your ONE desktop, based on how you have grouped them. Spaces is an extension of Exposé, which does the same type of thing with open windows. I like the way it works now, and I think it would be distracting and a bit jarring if the background also changed as the windows slid into place.

  • How to Run a Report automatically in Background for every night

    Hi,
    How to run a report program in Background automatically for every nigh.
    Thanks
    Ramesh

    Hi Ramesh,
    You can use SM36 and use the "Job Wizard" to define a background job in simple step by step procedure
    Or
    Goto SM37 and specify a job name.
    Next specify the ABAP Program Name of the report you want to execute under Job Step.
    Then click on "Extended Job Selection" and goto the Period Tab.
    There select "Only Periodic Jobs" and then specify the frequency of execution based on Months, Weeks, Days, Hours or Minutes.
    Hope this helps,
    Regards,

  • Background change linked to time

    I've got this far, but can't get my background to change for every minute not between 7am and 7pm.
    imageHolder currently contains an image in frame 1 and an a different image in frame two. Imageholder is currently the instance name of my movie on the stage. Any ideas?
    var myText:String;
    var myDate:Date;
    setInterval(myFunction, 1000);
    //myFunction(); //Call this immediately, so that the code loads, otherwise it will only do the function after a second
    function myFunction(){
    myDate = new Date();
    myText= myDate+"";
    //trace (myText);
    showText.text=(myText.substring(10,19));
    //myDate.hours gives us the hour part of a 24hour clock, so a number from 0 to 23...
    if(myDate.hours > 7 && myDate.hours < 20){ //Between 7 pm and 7 pm, show image1...
      imageHolder_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
    }else{ //Show image2...
      imageHolder_mc.gotoAndStop(2);

    Your first sentence doesn't explain very well what you are after so it will help if you can make that clearer.  If you are expecting something to change every minute, it doesn't even attempt to do anything like that.  As shown, if the hour is between 8 AM and 7 PM, inclusive, then image1 will be displayed.  Otherwise image2 is displayed.
    Your second sentence offers two possible names for the movie you mention and the code targets yet another, so it is not clear what the instance name of the movieclip is.  You might want to check that and be consistent in the code and how you explain it.

  • Can ABAP proxy to consume WSDL file be run as background job for every10min

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement where I need to build an interface which gatheru2019s the purchase order details and send to external third party software in their required format (as an XML file).
    So I should be the first point of contact and should trigger the interface each time a purchase order is generated.
    So I am thinking that I should develop a background job for every 10 minutes which will look for new purchase orders and gathers the information of the purchase orders and send them to external third party software in their required format.
    I have gone through all the SAP forums and e-Learning but still I have confusion in regards to how is it possible technically? Can some one guide me with some information on the same.
    I have a little bit of confusion and want to know few things.
    1)     Should I create a web service or should I consume a web service?
    2)     If I need to consume a web service, then can I write an ABAP proxy to be run in background fro evry 10 minutes? I mean can we run ABAP proxy as a batch job in the background?
    3)     Is there a difference between consuming an XML file and WSDL File?
    Any Help will be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Jessica.

    There are two options (as I know) to generate XML file.
    1. Use XML TRANSFORMATION to get the XML string based your TRANSFORMATION. You can input your data and get back the XML string. Download this string to a file
    Test XML generation program is:
    types: begin of ty_data,
           num   type i,
           end   of ty_data.
    DATA: itab TYPE standard table of ty_Data,
          la_data like line of itab,
          xmlstr TYPE string.
    DO 3 TIMES.
      la_data-num = sy-index.
      APPEND la_data TO itab.
    ENDDO.
    CALL TRANSFORMATION ztest_np1
      SOURCE table = itab
      RESULT XML xmlstr.
    CALL FUNCTION 'DISPLAY_XML_STRING'
      EXPORTING xml_string = xmlstr.
    My ZTEST_NP1 transformation. To create a transformation, click on the transformation in the "CALL TRANSFORMATION ztest_np1" statement. Select Simple transformation type.
    <?sap.transform simple?>
    <tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
      <tt:root name="table"/>
      <tt:template>
        <table>
          <tt:loop ref=".table">
            <item>
              <tt:value ref="NUM"/>
            </item>
          </tt:loop>
        </table>
      </tt:template>
    </tt:transform>
    XML string is like:
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
      <table>
      <item>1</item>
      <item>2</item>
      <item>3</item>
      </table>
    To use this option, you have to create a transformation and than use it to generate the XML string.
    Check this SAP Help
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/e3/7d4719ca581441b6841f1054ff1326/frameset.htm
    2. You can concatenate and create an XML string and download that string into a file.

  • Impact of Running COGI program for every two HRS...

    Hi,
    As per requirement in my business scenario, we have lot of materials with negative stocks currently.
    Now for physical inventory purpose, customer wants us to remove these negative stocks and want us to run COGI program every 2 hrs.
    As we are going to deactivate negative stocks for all materials, the error due to goods movements will get accumulated heavily in COGI.
    For countering this previously they were monitoring COGI once in a day.
    Now we have decided to schedule COGI in background job for every 2HRS.
    Is there any impact on system from PP prospective if we run COGI for 2hrs daily.
    Your view points will be highly appreciated.
    Rgds,
    Yogesh...

    Hello Yogesh,
    it is not possible to schedule COGI (report CORUAFFW) in background.
    But you may schedule report CORUAFWP (which was designed for background running) with option "failed goods movements" in order to clear your COGI records.
    There is no real impact, however, if there are that much records in COGI, you should schedule it for a time with low business in order to avoid lock errors.
    Regards,
    Andreas
