Behavior: Jump to Marker

The behavior "Jump to Marker" when applied to a Flash Button
doesn't work as expected.
The script is missing a:
<pre>
on Click me
Jump me
end Click
</pre>
On the other hand, the "on mouseUp" is ending with an "end
prepareFrame" when it should end with a "end mouseUp" and the "on
resolve" is ending with an "end on" when to keep standards should
end with a "end resolve". This is cosmetic, i know.
The original script is in "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe
Director 11\Configuration\Libs\Controls.cst" (on a PC naturally).
Cheers,
LF

You should not (ever) use just a number for a file name. I'd
bet that's your
problem.

Jump to marker dilemma

Hi. I'm placing markers within subclips so that I can easily find the clips I need while editing. In my bins, I'd like to be able to double click on a marker and have it jump to that marker within the subclip. However, what is happening is that the clip defined by the marker (between clip marker and next clip marker) opens in the viewer.
I know you can navigate between markers with shift+up arrow or shift+down arrow, but this means I have to jump until I find the marker I want. Is there any way to get directly from the marker description in the bin to the marker position WITHIN the subclip, rather than have it open in the viewer?
Thanks in advance for any help!

No way go from the Browser to the Viewer in the way that you're asking. (Unless I'm missing something.)
However, if it's a suitable workaround, you can load the (full, marker-laden) clip in the Viewer and then Control-click (right-click) on the Timecode Field in the upper right corner and select the Marker by name from the shortcut menu. That will jump the Viewer's playhead to the marker.
Or does that not fit the bill?

Jump to Marker 5? Cmd f5 turns on speakables...

I know I can redefine Logic's key commands, but I rather like the CMD + Fkeys to jump to specific markers. The problem is marker number 5, since CMD f5 toggles the speaking stuff in the Universal Access pane = Totally annoying. Is there a way to turn that off so I can have that key command for Logic? Of course, this only applies to Tiger.

Universal Access>Mouse>Open Keyboard Preferences...
I imagine that would be where to do it.

Detect pdf application: if false jump to marker

I am still a beginner with director. I am using buddy api,

Is there a 'jump to marker'-keyboard command?

While editing, I would apply Color-settings from one clip to another (cmd-shift-v).
But often, my 'preference' is way back ahead in my storyline.
So, my idea was, to add a marker - but I can not find a short-cut, which instantly jumps the playhead to that position.
Any ideas/suggestions?

… aaaahhhh, very helpful!
… I did search the Keyboard settings, but obviously ... me blind.
just to mention for us GERMAN users:
we have a different keyboard-scheme, so:
ctrl-ö and ctrl-ä …
NOT apostrophe ...
.... speed things up!
@Russ:
yeah, just a while ago, this tutorial of The Dynamic Duo Marc&Steve from rippletraining focussed me to the Time Line Index, and the marvel you can do with it - I completely ignored that tool before - very handy.
for my needs, ctrl-ö does the job ... Thanks anyhow!

Strange Behavior of Comparative Marker in New Bullet Chart

I put a bullet chart on canvas alonethe comparative marker is bright yellow. I can move it across the canvas fine and the marker doesn't change color. When I put a tab set container on the canvas and move the bullet chart into itin the left hand side of the tab set the marker still shows yellow, but when I move it to the right side--the marker changes to black!
Any ideas?

Hi,
When I created with my own data, it do not give me such problem even if I use "Aqua" theme.
My observation is, when you take to extreme right, it creates a scroll bar. When it creates a scroll bar (i.e. when it goes out of the tab area) it then changes the color to its dark shed. If you move the scrollbars to right, then the color again becomes normal.
I'll suggest, to fit the chart in the size of the TAB. It will work fine. Else as you observed, it works fine with other two themes, then its better to go for those schemes.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Rashmi

Jump to movie behavior

No matter what I do, I cannot get this behavior to work
properly. I have made the smallest and simplest 2 movies with one
marker on each movie, and still the behavior does not recognise
that there is a marker in the destination movie.
I have searched everywhere and am feeling very alone ... it
seems that no one has ever had this problem:
BEHAVIOR ERROR: [#frame: 20, #movie: "4.dir"], Sprite 0
Behavior "Jump to Movie Button"
There is no marker "three" in movie 3.dir. Enter a valid
marker (see Message Window) in the Behaviour Parameters dialog.
Something that I don't understand in this error message is
why it is from "#frame: 20 " when it is really coming from frame 1
of movie: "4.dir"
Something else I don't understand is the
gNavigationButtonList. When I look at that in the message window,
it only ever refers to frame numbers, never a frame name.
These 2 latter points might help someone analyse this problem
for me. I could also email the 2 tiny movies ( less than 70k each)
if anyone has the time to help me.
Thank you,
Carmel.

bet that's your

-- NOTES FOR DEVELOPERS --
-- The main handler is GoForward, which is triggered by mouseUp. The Initialize
-- handlers checks if the global gNavigationButtonList variable has the right
-- structure, or creates it if it does not already exist.
-- USE OF 'JUMP BACK/FORWARD BUTTON' BEHAVIORS
-- Information about what markers have already been visited is stored in a
-- global variable: gNavigationButtonList. As a global, this variable is
-- available to all navigation behaviors, on any sprite in any movie.
-- gNavigationButtonList has the following structure:
--   [#stack [...], #index: [...], #forward: [...]]
-- Each of the subLists has the structure:
--   [[#frame: <integer>, #movie: <movieName>], [...]]
-- #index is not currently exploited. It provides a list of all markers
-- visited, in the order of their first visit. It could be used to create
-- a pop-up menu, or to check if a player had visited a particular scene.
-- When the 'Jump Back Button' is activated, the marker nearest to the playback
-- head is appended to the #forward list. When the 'Forward button'is
-- activated, this last item is copied to a local variable,then removed from
-- the #forward list. Information concerning the current marker is appended to
-- the #stack, so that users can once again use the 'Jump Back Button'.
-- Going explicitly to "frame x of movie y" triggers the movie's
-- prepareMovie and startMovie handlers. If the most recently visited
-- marker is in the current movie, the command "go frame x" is used instead.
-- USE OF "PUSH BUTTON" BEHAVIOR
-- The "Push Button" behavior can be used to deal with the rollover and
-- mouseDown states of the "Jump Forward Button". When this behavior is
-- initialized, it asks each behavior on the same sprite to return a
-- behavior reference, if it happens to be the "Push Button" behavior. If
-- a reference is returned then the "Jump Forward Button" sets the button's
-- enabled state to indicate whether the #forward list currently contains
-- frames to jump to.

Hey there ZeldaFan29,
It sounds like you have some songs that are skipped when using the forward and back buttons on your iPod nano, and that leads me to believe that maybe these songs are skipped over when you are playing your playlist in the iPod as well. I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:

How do you go to marker when there is a wait for mouse click between the markers?

I cant seem to get by the wait for mouse click, when using go to (marker)
I have a game that I have 2 push buttons one is
on mouseUp me
go to frame 9
end
on mouseUp me
go to frame 29
end
There is a wait to click in between these 2 frames and when I click on the 2nd button to go to frame 29 it stops at the wait to click?
I have tried all these below and cant get past the click to wait?????
go
go to frame
go to marker
_movie.go
_movie.marker
_nextMarker=

Think this issue is resolved but to ensure the full answer is available, here it is.
First, it's a bad idea to use the Tempo channel at all. You can use a script to do anything that you can do there. I have Lingo alternates to the Tempo channel at:
http://www.deansdirectortutorials.com/Lingo/tempoLingo.htm
(think I need to update this page though)
So - DO NOT USE the Tempo Channel setting - Wait for Mouse Click or Key Press.
The above setting creates a type of pause that interferes with other interactivity.
Instead - use a 'Hold on Frame' behavior (from the Library Palette - Navigation category) or it could be written as:
on exitFrame
go the frame
end
Once you have the above behaviour in you desired frame, you can attach a sprite behaviour to your buttons / links. A good one to use is the ‘Jump to Marker Button’ behaviour in the Controls category of the Library Palette. You can attach this behavior to different sprites and just change the marker setting of the behavior, removing the need to have individual hard-coded scripts for each button.
Next – DO NOT link to frame numbers. Always link to a marker. You may insert or remove frames. This would cause your incorrect links since the frame number would no longer the right point.
Next – the following all do the same thing:
go to frame “markername”
go to “markername”
go “markername”
So, you can leave out ‘frame’ or even ‘to’ as they are not needed. I still use ‘go to’ as it feels more natural to me (just history).
or you could use:
_movie.go("dean")
Don’t use
go to marker “markername”
I think that did work at some point but not anymore.
marker can be used as follows:
go marker (-1)
Where -1 is the amount of markers back (could be forward as well).
Well, that gives the detailed answer to your question.

Text Sequence Behaviors (Continuous) - Intermittent

Hi everyone! I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying to apply the text sequence behaviour under the continuous menu called Intermittent. Applying this to my text produces two behaviors - Intermittent and Randomize Sequence Custom Speed. When I hit play, absolutely nothing happens. I can see the custom speed control in the Intermittent behavior jump up and down, but that's about it. What do I need to do to produce that cool flickering effect I see in the effect's preview window?
I should note that all the other continuous effects seem to work without touching anything.

It should work with the default settings when you apply the behavior. It is active for me upon application. The fact you see the custom speed control moving indicates the Random sequence custom speed behavior is operative. You might play with the opacity and variance controls to see if that jump starts it. Also I would delete the behavior and reapply it just in case it didn't apply correctly. Is Motion acting strangly in any other way?

Flash button bar integration

Hi there,
I'm using flash MX2004 to create a navigation bar for a
project in Director 8.5. I have used the getURL command in Flash to
transfer information to Director. The buttons are names button1,
button2 etc. I have put the flash component in Director and tested
that it is recieving variable button names successfully.
I want the button bar to change the director movie depending
on what button is pressed. I am able to have the buttons jump to
marker but not change movie.
I'm also trying to implement a roll-over information feature
ie. when the user rolls the mouse over a Flash button from
Director, a text box in Director displays information, eg. When the
user rolls over the "home" button, the information box reads "This
button takes you to the first page".
I'm pretty new to Director and randomly scouring the Lingo
help doesn't seem to be helping me :)
If anyone has any tips or solutions for my problems it would
be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
GL

It sounds like you want to have a number of different results
from these
flash button events. It also sounds like you have a number of
buttons in
the flash sprite.
As duckets said, you can use the getURL() actionscript method
to send
information to Director, either to a behavior attached to the
flash
sprite or to a movie script.
Director can interpret a mouse event on the Flash sprite, but
it can't
tell which object inside the flash sprite has been effected.
In other
words Director knows that the cursor rolled over the sprite,
just not
which clip or button was specifically rolled over.
You will need to set up a strategy for working with these
flash buttons.
You will need to decide how much information to send to
Director and
when to send that information.
Actionscript has rollover and rollout events as well as
mouseDown and
mouseUp events. So one way to deal with this is to use the
individual
rollover and rollout events to send information about the
text display.
Then use the mouseup event for navigation control.
One way to simplify the work on the Flash end is to name each
button
instance. Then on the rollover, rollout and mouseup events,
send the
name of the button instance to Director. You can then use a
simple case
statement to parse out the button's instance name and use
that name to
tell Director what to do.
In flash, name your buttons, it could be as simple as "one",
"two", etc.
The write a series of functions for those buttons. Maybe
something like
this:
-- create an array to hold the names of all of the buttons...
var buttonArray:Array = new Array(one,two,three,four);
-- create a set of functions for these buttons...
for (i in buttonArray) {
buttonArray
.onRollOver = sendRollOver;
buttonArray.onRollOut = sendRollOut;
buttonArray
.onMouseUp = sendMouseUp;
-- for the rollover event, send a string that contains a key
word and
the button name...
function sendRollOver() {
var stringToSend:String = "roll$"+ parseButtonName(this);
getURL(stringToSend);
-- do similar for the mouseUp event...
function sendMouseUp() {
var stringToSend:String = "up$"+ parseButtonName(this);
getURL(stringToSend);
-- for the rollout event just send a simple string...
function sendRollOut() {
getURL("rollout");
-- this function will strip out the simple button instance
name from its
full path...
function parseButtonName(button) {
var buttonName:String = string(button);
var nameParts:Array = buttonName.split(".");
var shortName = nameParts[nameParts.length -1];
return shortName;
Now you have a very simple flash movie that doesn't need to
be edited
every time something changes in the Director movie.
in Director make a behavior that will sit on the Flash
sprite:
property thisSprite
on beginSprite me
thisSprite = me.spriteNum
end
on getURL me,data
if data = "rollout" then
member("text display member").text = ""
else
parseOut(data)
end if
end
on parseOut(thisString)
oldDelim = the itemDelimiter
the itemDelimiter = "$"
if thisString.item[1] = "roll" then
case (thisString.item[2]) of
"one": member("text display member").text =
"first button string"
"two": member("text display member").text =
"second button string"
-- continue as needed
end case
if thisString.item[1] = "up" then
case (thisString.item[2]) of
-- similar to above
end case
end if
the itemDelimiter = oldDelim
end

Navigating using simple key strokes

Hey
I am creating a multimedia piece that will be presented
during an award ceremony. I need the speaker to be able to move
back and forward using key strokes. I have been looking through the
forums for a solution but everything appears so complex.
Is there a way to do this so that I an novice can make it
work???

Create a marker for each section. In the frame before each
marker, place the following behavior in the Script channel of the
Score window:
on exitFrame()
go loop
end
This will keep the playback head looping between the previous
marker and the frame with your "go loop" script.
In a Movie Script, paste the following handler:
on keyUp(me)
case the keyCode of
123:
go #previous
124:
go #next
end case
end
Run your movie and click on the Stage to give it keyboard
focus. Now press the left and right arrow keys. The playback head
should jump from marker to marker.

Movie playback lags SMPTE counter, self-corrects when advance by frame

Recently playback of my QT movies has begun to lag the SMPTE counter by about 15 frames. At any given point when playback is stopped, the timecode burn in the QT reads appx 15 frame behind the SMPTE counter. Curiously, when I advance by 1 frame (using key command), or advance by measure, or jump to marker, pickup clock of region, etc., the video instantly snaps forward to the exact SMTPE code in the counter. Lag only occurs during playback. This actually makes the problem worse, because I can't merely change the start time of the movie to compensate.
I've been using Logic for years without any sync problems. The problem is not file specific — the same lag occurs in Logic sessions I did just weeks ago with no sync problem.
Any thoughts or insights much appreciated.

Solved it – hope this helps someone else.
By moving (and saving elsewhere) my Logic preferences, I narrowed it down a preferences problem. Turned out to be my setting for plugin delay compensation – not an early suspect, given that it is for AUDIO. I had it set to "All", in order to eliminate the several frame shift rendered to my bounces when using the AdaptiveLimiter. After setting it to "audio tracks and instruments", the video lag ceased.
It will difficult to remember to change that setting every time I bounce a final mix, but at least the problem is solved.

A mini review of FiOS TV and their new QIP-7232 DVR

FiOS TV picture quality is stunning. No compression artifacts at all from what I can tell.
The 7232 is pretty good but not excellent. I have the 7232 and a Tivo HD XL. IMHO the Tivo is considerably better but I see lots of room for improvement with the 7232.
Pros and Cons of the 7232.
Remote
Nice and responsive. Like that I can turn the TV on and off. Doesn't allow for channel changing just input changing. Not a massive issue but a shame as we need another remote.
It's probably difficult to update, but I find the remote a bit too complicated and the buttons poorly positioned. Shame more buttons don't light up to help find buttons when the room is dark.
Guide
I may have missed it but it would be great if it remembered your favorite settings. I see the favorite button but IMO the guide button should take you there directly.
Guide Titles
Almost excellent but unfortunately titles are cropped when they go beyond 30 or so characters. They should allow wrapping to a second line to allow 60 or so characters.
Extended Guide Titles
I'm noticing some weird information on some shows. English soccer is particularly bad. For example, today's showing of Arsenal versus Blackburn has a title of The Gunners (Arsenal) rallied for a 2-2 draw with West Ham on March 19. So the title describes Arsenal's previous result. Quite confusing.
Speed
Seems speedy enough. I was ready for some lagging but overall impressed.
Storage
Fine but IMHO not adequate for a whole house DVR recording in HD. Look forward to seeing the external hard drive capability.
Bugs
I'm seeing some issues viewing at the end of recordings. Seems that fast forward and next don't work at the end of the recording. A bit annoying. Hopefully a fix can be made.
No "wishlist".
Not a deal breaker but would be nice to see in a software upgrade. Both the Tivo and DirecTV boxes have this feature and I find it very useful as I forget to check back in every few weeks for new shows.
No jump to mark/end.
I hear this is coming with 1.9. That is great. Look forward to seeing it. I like the idea of pushing and holding the "next" button to skip to the end.
Again the PQ is stunning. I'm blown away with it. I got used to DirecTV compressing some channels and it is great to see true uncompressed images. I love it. Very happy customer overall. If Verizon can continue to improve their DVR they are onto a major winner.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask but I'd be happy to beta test anything.

Re: your comment about the Guide button. You can easily set the Guide button to display your choice of Favorites. Here is a link to a thread (from two years ago, but still accurate) that has a link to a document I wrote that will tell you how to set it up:

Hope the above helps. And I think we will all be excited when we get the 1.9 level of the IMG, will have lots of new stuff.

Error in Selection Screen

Hi guys,
today i am facing a really weird problem. We've written a simple report with a selection-screen. At first everything looks fine. We've transported the request to all other systems (Quality Assurance & Production), where it looked fine too.
After that we've included some more code (text-symbols, frames) and transported it to the other systems. But now our problems occurs: In Development system everything is okay. In Quality Assurance and Production systems the selection-screen doesn't show all frames and text-symbols. The weird thing is that the source code is identical in all systems and that even the debugger shows the right values of the text-symbols.
Is there any buffer or system parameter which can course such wrong behavior?
